Just to raise false hopes for our resident trumpanzees:
But the Democrats are going to RIG THE ELECTION, by CERTIFYING ALL THE STATES BIDEN WON! HOW DARE THEY!(37) states have a total of 316 Electoral College electors, 148 of whom are pledged to President-elect Joe Biden (D). The remainder (168) are pledged to President Donald Trump (R).
What comes next?
The following states will certify their results in the next two weeks. Certification deadlines, where available, are provided (as are Electoral College votes and projected winners):
- California: Dec. 11 (55; Biden)
- Connecticut: Dec. 3 (7; Biden)
- Hawaii: Not specified (4; Biden)
- Illinois: Dec. 4 (20; Biden)
- Maryland: Dec. 8 (10; Biden)
- Missouri: Dec. 8 (10; Trump)
- New Jersey: Dec. 8 (14; Biden)
- New York: Dec. 7 (29; Biden)
- Oregon: Dec. 3 (7; Biden)
- Tennessee: Not specified (11; Trump)
- Texas: Dec. 3 (38; Trump)
- Washington: Dec. 3 (12; Biden)
- West Virginia: Dec. 3 (5; Trump)
Federal law requires states to appoint their slates of Electoral College electors and settle any disputes related to the presidential election by Dec. 8. This is referred to as the safe-harbor provision.
The 538 members of the Electoral College will meet in their respective state capitals on Dec. 14 to cast their votes. On Jan. 6, 2021, the newly elected Congress convenes in a joint session to count the electoral votes.
But you know that bit at weddings where you always wonder if anyone is going to offer any "just cause or impediment"?
You just know a couple of GOP retards are going to be writing these letters.
Members of Congress can object to the results. If both a House and Senate member make a written objection to a state’s results, Congress will debate and vote on the objection’s merit. Electoral votes can be excluded only if both chambers vote to accept the objection. If a ticket receives 270 electoral votes (a majority of the 538 members of the Electoral College)the vice president (acting as Senate president) formally declares that individual winner of the election.
HAHAHA You just know he's raging. You also know he'll say "We're the first people in the world to have this vaccine, the first people, incredible".
Trump furious over US vaccine delay: report - Business InsiderPresident Trump's is reportedly angry with the US vaccine approval agency after the United Kingdom became the first country to approve a coronavirus vaccine.
Trump has repeatedly expressed his frustration with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over what he perceives to be a delay to its vaccine approval process.
Publications including CNN reported that "agitation" among White House officials increased when the UK on Wednesday approved the Pfizer vaccine, becoming the first country in the world to do so.
Antony Fauci, the top US infectious disease expert, on Wednesday said the UK's vaccine approval process had not been as "careful" as the FDA's but later apologised and suggested his comments had been misinterpreted.
‘Fatalism’ engulfs White House as Trump spends his time ‘going nuts over election fraud’: Administration official
In an examination of the transition of power from outgoing President Donald Trump to the incoming administration of President-elect Joe Biden, a White House official conceded Trump has a lot of free time on his hands during which he is obsessing over his belief that the election was stolen from him by fraud.
According to the report, the harsh reality of a lost election has settled upon White House staff with the Washington Post reporting, “… inside the White House, the mood has darkened and a sense of fatalism has engulfed much of the staff,” who are mostly busy looking for new jobs — which they are finding may be more difficult than they expected.
“Even senior staffers are starting to move on, sending a steady stream of résumés to Republican firms. But Trump officials who were especially combative on Twitter are viewed as ‘pretty toxic,’ said one Republican operative, and are being advised to seek work in less political venues first, providing a sort of cooling-off period,” the Post reports before adding that many of those same staffers are working from home now leaving the White House empty and dark.
As for the president, an administration insider claimed the president has no immediate plans for the future and spends his days obsessing over the lost election.
The Post reports, “Trump has little in the way of a plan, according to several senior administration officials, and is focused rather on cataloguing the ways he insists he was robbed of victory.”
“The large majority of his time has been unstructured, in the Oval [Office], just going nuts about voter fraud,” confessed a senior administration official. “I don’t know how else to put it. That occupies seemingly every waking moment of his day.”
The report goes on to note that Trump’s lingering obsession with fraud was fueled by a report from Fox News’ Sean Hannity that “purports to show suspicious suitcases at a Georgia canvassing center. Georgia officials have said the video shows entirely normal ballot processing.”
‘Fatalism’ engulfs White House as Trump spends his time ‘going nuts over election fraud’: Administration official – Raw Story

^ The menace can't and won't face reality. He's like the most spoil rotten brat imaginable who has never had to take responsibility for anything in his entire life. Instead, he continues to live in a delusional world, holding rallies, like he did in Georgia yesterday, whining about his loss and smearing others. 6 more weeks of this menace and his stooges.
^ No, trump does face reality every day.
He won 80 million votes. None of the leading Repubs are criticizing him, so he must be right in his mind. He recognizes the party in general is so shit scared of his fan club that he can literally say or do anything with impunity. What is McConnell going to do, call the trump delusional when by doing that will piss off the majority of the voters in his state? Of course not!
trump's raking in money by the millions from his fan base. His lies are increasing his personal fortune so why should he give a fuck about the country, after all, from his standpoint, the country never cared about him.
What trump is doing is burning the building down behind him while personally profiting off of the American through donations to his "cause".
"I was a good student. I comprehend very well, OK, better than I think almost anybody," - President Trump comparing his legal knowledge to a Federal judge.
I had thought about posting this in the funny pictures thread
I don't know where he gets that from, the Parler crowd are convinced the vaccine has a Bill Gates chip in it, remember?
HAHAHAHAHA
Looks like baldy orange loser wanted an event so he could say how brilliant he was at getting vaccines ready.
FAIL!
The vaccine manufacturers’ absences will be conspicuous at a “Vaccine Summit,” an event that drug industry figures and one Trump administration official largely viewed as a public relations stunt when STAT first reported the event last week.Leading Covid-19 vaccine makers Pfizer and Moderna decline invitations to White House ‘Vaccine Summit’
Pfizer, Moderna decline invitations to White House 'Vaccine Summit'
Doesn't take much for the two of you to have a good time.
But laughter is healthy
Good for you
More to the point they just know he will take credit, mispronounce the name, mix up which virus they are facing, recommend drinking bleach and then claim he is so strong and bigly that he doesn’t need a vaccine anyway. Who wants their branding associated with that?
^^^^^^^ ... might also be a contributing factor ...

The U.S. Has Ordered Enough Of Pfizer’s Covid-19 Vaccine For 50 Million People—But That’s All
Fox News reported early Monday that President Trump plans to sign an executive order on Tuesday that prioritizes giving Covid-19 vaccines to American citizens before the government will help other nations, which may be an effort to quell worries about vaccine shortages.
But because Pfizer privately funded the work on its Covid-19 vaccine without help from the U.S. government, there is no legal way that President Trump, or the incoming Administration could “force” Pfizer to give the U.S. additional doses before other countries.
The U.S. Has Ordered Enough Of Pfizer’s Covid-19 Vaccine For 50 Million People—But That’s All
Donald Trump could hold a 2024 re-election rally at the moment Joe Biden gets sworn in at his inauguration
LOVE THAT PHOTO!
If rumours are to be believed, Donald Trump may be planning a rally to kick off his 2024 bid for re-election at exactly the same time Joe Biden is sworn in as the new US president.
This would be the election equivalent of getting engaged at someone else's wedding.
According to those reports, Trump is considering announcing a plan to run again, before departing on his final Marine One and Air Force One flights, while snubbing his successor's ceremony.
Here
To be fair, that is a bit misleading. The gov spread its bets across (I think) six vaccines in the developmental pipeline (they had to place their bets months ago). I think 5 were for 100 million doses (50 million people each) and one for 300 million doses. Problem being, production has to be ramped up BEFORE efficacy is shown. Spreading their bets was not that bad a thing, and this is only the first vaccine to come on line. Others will follow.
I don't believe that the concern and complexities of enough vaccines or general distribution/administering should be an issue.....they'll work all that out in time.
A greater problem might be convincing the majority of the worldwide population to be taking the vaccine course - for numerous circles it's more political than health related.
Tuesday the 3rd of November 2020 , the imposter thought he had the U.S
election wrapped up at about midnight, when early results showed he was
heading for victory, imagine how pumped up the snake oil salesman would
have been, then he was advised not to claim victory too soon, his lavish party
to celebrate his great victory had to be canceled ( how sweet it is ) because
he realized he hadn’t pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes .
And now he’s stewing over the fact that he’s loosing power, the only thing he
ever wanted............ oh! , there is a Jesus.
It's probably not normal but I've got his Twitter page bookmarked and look at it each morning to see just how fucking ridiculous things really are over there. Record numbers of Covid deaths/infections each day and here's Trump bragging and posting videos of how many people are gathering together (all unmasked) to show they believe he's got undisputable evidence of winning the election - no matter what the Supreme Court says. There's a special kind of stupid going on there you'd normally only ever see somewhere like Bangladesh. Maybe.
