We're around 4,000 votes away from Biden flipping Georgia.
While that's not enough for him to win without a call from another state, Fox News, who prematurely called Arizona for Biden and refused to retract it because they've never been wrong about anything (pretty sure Biden's taking Arizona anyway, but that's neither here nor there) will be forced to call Biden our next president before any other news source. Or they can just eat crow and retract Arizona.
Trump could very likely win Georgia, but this could get juicy.

Trump's press conference was embarrassing even by his standards. And it doesn't matter that he's full of shit because the damage is done and his supporters are going to do who the hell knows what in spite because they're all under the impression that the election was rigged. This is why Trump is so fucking dangerous; anything he says his followers believe, or even worse, do. He has no evidence, but it scares me that he's going to lean on the Supreme Court to rule on this ultimately. I don't trust Thomas, Kavanaugh, or Barrett to do the right thing here whatsoever. Does it ever get to that point? I hope not, but who fucking knows anymore.
Trump is just a complete disgrace. The most un-American president this country has ever had. He questions without legitimacy all of our institutions that don't bend to his favor, calls out Americans who voted legally as having done something nefarious, and continues to cast doubts on poll workers (VOLUNTEERS mind you) despite every polling place being worked on by both Democrats and Republicans.
This nightmare has no end in sight.

This nightmare has no end in sight. Trump can't just go to the Supreme Court and demand that they make a ruling, regardless of what he may think he can do. There's a process for a case to get to the Supreme Court, and it has to meet certain requirements. These lawsuits are being filed because Trump is ordering them to be. The lawyers all know that nothing is going to come of it because there's no evidence of anything he's claiming, because it's all just nonsense he's made up to excuse a loss on his part. Thomas, Kavanaugh and Barrett don't have to concern themselves with what anyone wants anymore. All they have to do is follow the law, and that's pretty straightforward in these instances. |

Correct, I know it's a stretch for it to even reach the Supreme Court but Trump has already mentioned he's going to get them involved and that does give me some pause. His lawsuits being shot down left and right is a good sign that he has absolutely nothing and even the GOP knows he's just scrambling to attempt to bring some illegitimacy to the results. And it won't work. |

The conservative members of The Court know that Trump isn't really a conservative. He's just out to get anything and everything he can for himself. He was a lifelong Democrat until a black man became President, including endorsing Hillary Clinton. |

The strategies and arguments I've seen floated on Twitter would probably have cert denied.

He's just out to get anything and everything he can for himself. He was a lifelong Democrat until a black man became President, including endorsing Hillary Clinton. Kavanaugh seems like a partisan hack to me. Barrett is extremely lacking in experience and is only there because she's Scalia's protege, which is a statement that should scare anyone. These aren't the best options for the job. These are who Trump picked to be loyal to his conservative efforts. Would they abandon duty for Trump in the wake of ruling on the election? Remains to be seen, but I'm not putting my faith in those two, especially Kavanaugh. |

Overturning existing election laws is not something conservatives are in favor of, and that's what would be necessary to help Trump, because the laws as they are currently followed don't help Trump in the slightest. Barrett does appear to be cut from the same cloth as Scalia, who would change his position to match the GOP in a heartbeat. The others conservatives, not so much. |

Ayy john fetterman is a great guy, had a friend who worked very closely on his campaign. Have met him a bunch and he really never smiles but gets shit done. Lead braddock outta the dumpster (well it's still pretty shit, us steel dominates and actively pollutes the place) has been very active in legalizing and decriminalizing marijuana, his babe wife runs a local food bank that has grown immensely, and just an overall pillar of the community.
I gotta say picking this week to move was honestly a great decision. Not watching 24/7 coverage but getting the juicy bits.

Biden's less than 500 votes away from flipping Georgia and less than 20,000 in Pennsylvania. There is a legit chance that he could get all the remaining states except Alaska and North Carolina.
Trump's saltiness is going to get even worse and his humiliation will be complete.
