Her voter registration had some impact, but still not sure this all happens without mail in voting and general population trends.

She is claiming every single new voter signed up because of her. When really all her group does is monitor the sign ups.

They host a couple events but it looks like a Biden rally.

She is just blowing smoke.

Our two candidates were Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Now tell me again how "collectively smart" we are.

Oh, I agree they both leave a ton to be desired. They are creatures of different evolutions. Trump won because people are frustrated with the system's seeming ineffectiveness and lethargy. Biden is winning because people are fed up with the herky jerky approach of the guy in there now.

Simply amazing. Trump led all these states election night. They decide to stop counting for the night and then ever since it’s been overwhelming votes for Biden coming in

Not sure why something that was predicted weeks in advance is so “amazing” but Repubs seem to have somehow forgotten literally everything leading up to the election

It’s really not that amazing. Mail in votes were always going to be more Dems, and for whatever reason the Repubs didn’t want them counted until starting on Election Day.

If the votes were counted as they came in you would be saying almost the same thing “this is over before Election Day even starts. Simply amazing”.

The mail in vote this year is what it is. More people utilized it, and it was mostly those buying the Covid hype, which were Dems.

How FL did it was perfect, but there will be states with 100 different excuses of why they can't do that

Jeb Bush said that Florida changed their system after 2000 debacle. There are 49 other states with 49 different ways of doing things. It would be nice if we had some national conformity.

I think the Republican Senate in January should introduce a bill for you are not required to show ID to buy weapons. If no ID to vote, then no ID for buying weapons

I think all rights should have the same standard of application to them.

Those states decided to count votes cast on Election Day first instead of the votes that were cast much earlier via mail in ballots that heavily favor Biden bc D’s encouraged mail in voting while Trump failed against it

Nah you’re probably right. There was so much voter fraud that both candidates received 12 million more combined votes.

Well, let's see.

Trump got out, campaigned, energized his base, got them to the polls.

Biden hid in his basement the better part of that. Yet, somehow he massively increased voter participation over 2008 and 2016?

Yeah, totally legit.

Not Every U.S. Presidential Race Has Been Decided on Election Day. Here’s What to Know About America’s History of Contested Elections

No one is arguing the votes have to be fully counted in election day. Just that a transparent collection of all votes.

For example, I have bags of M&Ms. We are to split the M&Ms by color using all the bags in the house. You get green, orange and blue and I get brown yellow and red. If I bring out the all unopened bags and put them on the table, we can accurately count the M&Ms and be in agreement on the result.

If I say the M&Ms are being given to me and I walk out of the room to get another bag, you will have little confidence in how I'm handling the bags of M&Ms or how many bags are left. Maybe a snack size comes out in the knick of time to give me more. Did I just go out and get another bag or was that truly in the house? Shut up about it. Count all M&Ms.

A huge portion of the people supporting Biden are taking Covid super seriously and are still trying to avoid unnecessary risks. If there is the option to vote by mail, then they see going to the polls as an unnecessary risk. The mail in votes were always going to be overwhelmingly for Biden.

You have hit the nail on the head.

The funny thing is that nobody seems to notice that Stacey Abrams still hasn't conceded the 2018 Georgia Gubernatorial election . . . exactly like Trump is doing right now.

You know they always count mail in votes last right. Did you want them to work through until all the millions and millions of mail in votes were counted?

It goes to show people take the pandemic more seriously than this echo chamber realizes.

I doubt much happens of significance legislatively in the next 4 yrs. Republicans did very well down ballot. Not a single House incumbent R lost this week and it's likely that they'll retain control of the Senate, probably 52-48. That means no packing of the court. No elimination of the filibuster, no green deal, no far left Nancy Pelosi legislation getting to the President's desk.

Republicans should sit back and let the Dems implode as they try to govern. The R's should work on finding a non Trump to run in 2024 but one who'll get Trump's full support. I'd suggest Ron DeSantis.

In the meantime, Trump's people in the judicial system will continue to deliver victory after victory for Republican causes.

Four yrs of Trump worked out far better than I envisioned. I feared he'd blow up the party and lose by a landslide in 2020. Instead the party is energized and Trump is more popular than he was 4 yrs ago. He has the love and adulation that his ego sought. Conservatives were lukewarm on him 4 yrs ago but they absolutely love him now. He really exceeded expectations especially considering all the forces against him.

Thank you Mr President for all you did for us and all the crap you had to endure. Now go enjoy your fame and it's up to us to take it from here

Good analysis, and is best we can hope for.
But, based on the lack of support for Trump from the Republican party during his term is my main concern. Have you seen a concerted effort from them over the election fraud?
I'm afraid we can't count on that 52/48 advantage.

No doubt about it. Democrats are more likely to rely on and trust institutions. Most Republicans wouldn't trust their vote to the USPS if their life depended on it.

Repubs are throwing everything against the wall hoping something will stick. When will they admit they just can’t handle losing? It’s the same as 4 years ago with Dems. It’s Repubs turn now to eat humble pie.

I’ll eat it. I didn’t think running on a platform of “not Trump” was enough and I was wrong. Even if somehow through courts or whatever Trump ends up pulling it out it was clear that “not Trump” was pretty powerful. I’m inspired by BB eating his crow for the polls so that’s mine.

Not sure he locks us down, but am reasonably sure he will get all the credit for limiting the virus' effects.
