welp ap just called PA for trump which puts him at 267 so that's that

I'm genuinely amazed that they could even be far enough along in the counting for it to be called at all

with how it works, it's usually not a single night affair

right? didn't it take like ... idk, 4 days last time?

it was Thurs or friday

something like that

since they can't count absentee ballots at all until after the in-person election day ones are done

yeah...

which includes vote-by-mail

so this is kind of weird?

I have no fucking idea how they could possibly be at 95% of precincts reporting

they usually do call it in a night

hell Arizona can count ours as soon as they get them, and we're nowhere near as far along

2020 was different because there were so much more mail in ballots due to covid

i mean there were still a lot this year

if he somehow pulls this off, I'm actually not sure who deserves the most blame:

The GOP for its nationwide disenfranchisement campaign, or the media for going out of their way to sanewash all the insane shit that comes out of Trumps mouth

Trump: I'm gonna deport 20 million illegals (note: the estimate for undocumented immigrants in the US is uh...several million smaller than that)

NYT et al: Trump proposes novel immigration policy overhaul

yeaaah

they care about clicks

thats really what this election showed more than anything

right it would be funny if it weren't so infuriating, how far they had to stretch to make him not sound like a raving fucking asshole

I don't want to go to work tomorrow

and deal with people

ugh

someone is setting off fireworks

Hopefully they set their house on fire.

i'm not looking at the results and haven't been for the last hour or so

but

fuck them

I genuinely do not have any sympathy for anyone who could celebrate Dollar Store Hitler coming back into power

especially when he openly campaigned on being a dictator

I haven't even finished being happy about the dodgers world series win like
