I'm just genuinely cautioning there is a chance... I go by the poll average at 270 to win. And that has Harris up in WI, MI, and tied in PA. But they could all be overselling the democrats again..
I think Trump Takes PA and wins, so don't expect shock.
My actual prediction:

It's easier if you know it's going to happen ahead of time. I'm just gonna have fun with losing. It can be fun if you do things like reference a children's books with flying Trump frogs.
And then you can even feel better by saying, "Well, at least I won't have to hear about a stolen election for 4 years this time."
I'm not expecting anything immediately. Depending on how close PA and maybe WI are, they'll do the 2000 Florida thing for a few months. Especially if PA alone swings it.
As far as Trump as the next president goes, I'll cross that bridge when he starts doing things that bug me. That's more than just winning. That will probably come fairly quickly after Jan 20th.
It's not like getting angry changes the outcome once done and counted. It's best to sublimate any negative feelings of America's choice into doubt-laden sarcasm and general "showmeism."
I appreciate your wishful thinking. However, you’re fucked. Loves and kisses……

No worries -- there's room in the barrel for all the crabs.

Can't I just make a bunch of non-starter secession jokes instead?

I can be happy others are happy they feel the transmigrant apocalypse has been averted, but that only goes so far. And if I don't do at least a little subtle digging, I'm not really being me.

I wouldn't count on that....
That is a marketing techniques the media is in love with.....
Stoke outrage... to garner "clicks" and "hits" which equates to money for them.

Kennedy now saying he’s going to slash entire departments out of the FDA!
Quote:Video on Twitter.
BREAKING: RFK Jr. just vowed to remove entire departments of the FDA!
This is what I’m talking about!
This is getting Epic!
FDA slashed
DOE - gone.
Taxes on tips, overtime - gone.
Elon Musk and Ron Paul telling lots of swamp…. AFUERA!
update:
fluoride - AFUERA!
Quote:RFK Jr. said he would clear out entire departments in health care agencies in a bid to root out "corruption," per Axios. "Fluoride is on its way out," he added.

Edit: Aargh, okay, I said I'd avoid this politics stuff but I guess I thought that was funny. Maybe now I owe a cheesy joke about the others, to be non-parmesan?
Screw it that's funny even with a bit of bias

Musk & Paul getting efficient.
Start with revoking security clearances for anyone NOT currently working for the Govt. Task a couple of data analyst's to determine just how many clearance "slots" each govt agency is required or allowed. (epic pita)
Yes Virginia, this includes personel working in SAP's.
Don't extend to every company working as a defence contractor, just critical jobs when contracts are awarded.
Get rid of govt seniority & replace it with a merit based system.
Use metrics to evaluate job performance.
Post-Turtleing disencentivised by termination of middle-upper mgt idjits playing favorites.
Yep, there are bigger fish to fry in Trumps first 100 days but still. Nice to think about!
Think we can get Ricky Gervais to be Press Secretary? CNN will LOVE him!!!
RE: What would you say you do here? - UltraBudgie - 11-06-2024
"Elon Musk" and "Robert Kennedy Jr" are interesting misspellings. Did you mean "John Bolton" and "Mike Pompeo"?
I'm kidding of course. I'm sure Trump will keep his hype-men around for as long as they may be useful.
