Woke up on to this new world.
The Dems will control the senate.
McConnell will no longer be the majority leader.
Biden will be certified as the winner today and he will be POTUS.
And the Scottish have told Trump to "piss off" as far going there in order to flee America.

(70,657 posts)Such as Trump sold out America, is an active Russian asset, and rather than trying
to stop the global pandemic he tried to make money off of it.

Clemson and then fell asleep because I just couldn't deal with "it" and i woke to this?

(90,803 posts)After Georgia went for Biden, the pending run-offs because of close races, and all the BS the Trumplicans have pulled since, it seemed within reach.
Still, I was hoping like mad.

I avoided most of the cable commentary today, watched some very old Midsomer Murders, then tuned in here.
Ive spent the last couple of hours just soaking it in. Its almost 2 am, so I will go to bed soonish. I hope I can sleep. For a change, it wont be the insomnia thats plagued me for 4 long years.
The message from the Scots first minister to Trump is the icing on the cake. Bless the woman.

(70,657 posts)1) Get rid of those G.D. voting machines. They cheat with them.
2) Dump the electoral college. It is un-Constitutional it lets the minority control the
majority, it gives unequal weight to the vote of presidential voters in different states,
and we don't have any more slave owners to placate.
3) Presidential elections should be 6 months long. That is it.
4) Lab Testing*. A national push to get hundreds of thousands of trained "sniffer dogs"
who can detect the virus. We need to hunt the virus instead of the virus hunting us.

we did it, we do have the power!!!!! Let us move on, and get these bastards out!!!! There is a higher power and it's not tRump.
We revealed what the repigs are, karma baby. One thing the cult will hitting back. Stay away from them, or let them be arrested, a dose of reality will do them good.

(1,193 posts)Now the true snowflakes are going to have temper tantrums in DC because they cannot handle their king losing the election.
Around 1030 last night, I told my father after I calculated. Osf, will win over 15000 votes. Off 1000 for now. Mail in votes will be counted and will most likely be democratic votes.

(756 posts)Ivermectin's invention won the Nobel prize for medicine and safely treated 3.7Billion (with a B) people. It can stop the spread very fast, dramatically reduce hospitalizations and deaths.
We also have dibs on 300million doses of the conventional vaccine. Refrigerate only, 3or4 dollars a dose, not fancy genetically modified etc. Oxford-AZ in addition now! The virus could be dead before the snow melts!
Happy New Year 🎉
Dream, of the most life affirming Spring of your life.
