He’ll see “hands” and “small” in the same tweet and freak the feck out

My only comfort is he's not had sex for 4 years. Which must be frustrating .
Trump should just die now. From hemorrhoids or syphilis...
99/1 he’s out. He is going to potentially do a bunch of damage before then, but I am not worried about him peaceably remaining in power. Now, non-peacefully..... small chance but that’s the only way.
How are the odds for a not failed coup , on betfair?
Please.
90/10 would be an outlier, most likely 95/5 or higher against the orange cnut even attempting such idiocy.
Is there anything Biden can do to Trump once he's President.
Like deporting him to the Ascenion Islands?

Secret cabal to the CIA director perhaps... Trump goes on a random canoe trip in the Appalachian and mysteriously drowns.
People was in awe of Ferguson because he lived up to his promises and was hugely successful. Trump was a utter failure, a BS artist and a deluded idiot, his followers are the same as him.
Fixed it for you
I'll tell you, honestly, I will love it if he did that, love it!
The NYT amongst others finally calling AZ for Biden. So now what’s left is GA and NC.
GA should go to Biden although most networks won’t call it until the recount is done. Anyway it’s still looking like a 306-232 count at the end.

Damn, didn’t see this before. Good bottle of champagne, great producer.
I''ve had this chilled since Tuesday. Must say I'm tempted to just stick it up my arse and tweet it to @calodo2003.
Makes absolute sense. But this also illustrates everything that's gone wrong with social media, and even internet in general, the last decade.
I guess, whatever it is, this will finally be over by tomorrow as that is the date for the Electoral College to vote on the president, right? Would be good to finally seal Trump's doom.
They meet in the middle of December.

oh .. Dec 14 ... not Nov... haha ... ok.. looks like the shit show continues. Thanks for the correction.
I hope Biden reappoints anyone who's spoken out about this madness. They're doing their jobs properly.
Ffs. He's a tyrant! It's not far fetched to think this is connected, is it?

I don't get it. Unless legal challenges/evidence present themselves, what would be the point of going after the electoral college? I mean, isn't it ultimately because of this disproportionate system that he was ever elected in the first place?
I thought the same immediately. He's definitely petty enough.
If I didn't know any better I might think someone is trying to steal this election.
Was an article in the NYT about this today.
Trump is planning his next move and how he can take his base with him to whatever he will do, presumably for $$$ reasons.
Not serious about the faithless electors, ironically this also came up when he won in 2016 but the other way around.
Not every state has "faithless elector" laws so the mooted idea is to get electors to vote for him regardless of how the actual popular vote played out in the state. Legally speaking, it's a possibility because the constitution set up a frighteningly stupid system.
Not going to happen. If that were to happen then surely all hell would break loose and someone would.. take matters into their own hands?
Yeah, I can't imagine it happening either. But it would be "constitutional", which tells you all about how really fecked up the system is.
Just saw this

But yeah, the whole EC system is pretty insane in this day and age.
Did not know about those second and third bullet points. Good to know.
The Supreme Court has already ruled on faithless electors after 2016, you can’t do it. The play they are mooting is to get Republican legislatures in the contested states to send alternative slates of electors, but it will just means an impasse similar to 1876 and if the matter doesn’t get resolved by Jan 20 then Pelosi becomes acting President.
The scenario when each state has a vote in the House only applies for an electoral tie/no one won a majority.
As much as liberals like to wallow in disaster porn, you guys need to take a chill pill. Michael Moore was on The Hill rambling about how Trump is an evil genius and Barr was pulling the strings stealing the election for him before Nov.3rd. It’s unhealthy.

I mean, add the words “trying to” in there and it’s not wrong.
It's not that simple though is it? SCOTUS only ruled that state laws that prohibit faithless electors are valid. If a state doesn't have those state laws, then electors can still do as they please.
Kind of accepted that Trump will somehow get a 2nd term. 
There were a total of 2 faithless electors that defected from Trump in 2016. The slate of electors are party loyalists/organizers. The idea that any of them would defect from Biden this time is fanciful.
Even if we apply the doomsday scenario, only PA and GA don’t have faithless electors law. Biden still has 270.
As far as I'm aware, the Supreme Court ruling was about whether it's permissible for states to enact 'faithless elector' laws. As in, does a state have the right to punish an elector who votes differently than the popular vote results? The ruling was that yes, those laws are constitutional. It does not mean that all states must enact them and many of them didn't.
