Not that good, Sherriff Joe is not around anymore. They're probably not going to be wildly beating people up (because there's no black people in that crowd), but i doubt they'd let them torch the place too.

I'm convinced Fox has a hold on old men because it's a bunch of hot women making eye contact and showing leg.

What I'm saying is save America: buy grandpa a realitykings subscription. For one dollar a day you can keep Chet Smith from forwarding an email.

I think we should instead look to the younger crowd.

Each one of us should find a young, weeby chud, and promise to buy them a lewd/nude photoset of their favorite Instagram cosplay model from Gumroad each month in exchange for a Democratic vote.

Trumpers are yelling online about showing up to Philly, but I'm sure the cops are ready (like Maricopa) and any counter-crowd has their D batteries holstered.

My predictions:
- The Trumps spend the next 40 or so years in and out of court for various types of fraud and SEC violations
- Don Jnr keeps trying to run, and everyone keeps having to remind him that as a felon, he's ineligible
- Baron, the only Trump to escape conviction turns out to be the chosen one - the moderate Republican who brings balance to the GoP. He teaches his terminally ill father humility, and working together they primary Mitch McConnell, breaking his death grip on the senate and the country. He marries Billie Eilish and eventually the people vote to give him a 3rd and 4th term. He does not pardon Kushner.
-Hunter Biden drives his late father's Trans Am into the heart of Fox News and blows it up. He didn't mean to, he was just on that much coke.

make's u think

I see different opinions based on where I look.

All the poo poo going on in Maricopa county in Arizona:

Are people pissed off because votes are still being counted or because people are counting votes 24/7 and taking some time off?

It seems that the left is saying republicans are storming the gates because they’re mad the votes are still being counted (like they should have been done already), but the right is saying they’re pissed off because the count is taking so long, counters are going home, and the counters are only counting the Biden votes to project that he’s the winner.

I dunno. I was raised in Arizona and have always thought I’d retire there. The last year of seeing how they handled COVID and all the voting has seriously made me reconsider.

These fucks will never be happy. As soon as you stop counting votes they’d say you were fraudulent because you didn’t count votes now we gotta throw the whole election out.

Yup. This is the Fox-fueled fascism wing of the country. Don't engage with their bullshit arguments because they'll turn on a dime to the next line of bullshit as soon as you do. There is no coherent logic argument to be had from them, it's entirely emotional and based on hatred. They hate you and will hate anything you do because you did it. Doesn't matter if it's what they were just yelling at you to do, because they never gave a gently caress in the first place. It was an excuse to hate and attack you and they'll go right on hating and attacking you anyway.

It’s not tricky. Trump supporters are protesting that in places where he might win, they workers havent counted fast enough and they’re even more pissed that votes are being counted at all in places where a full count very likely means Trump loses.

Their protest is purely about “Trump win” not election process.

Just log onto Facebook (don't) and then go to any news article talking about the election (don't do this) and then click on the comments thread (please don't do this) and you'll see the kind of insane arguments they're making about the Democrats fraudulently stealing the election, in a bunch of states that are pretty much run entirely by Republicans?

I hope that this doesn’t become a legal thing. I think there are too many states to flip so it’s less likely the vote is stolen, but 2020 is a cruel mistress.

He's technically right, fox news isn't news. It's an entertainment network. The news desk which your FIL probably hates because it doesn't reinforce his views is there so they can keep news in the title.

lol, no he mainlines that channel whenever we're not around. I know what you mean though about it not being "news" (the whole court case where they argued they were "entertainment").


Also funny is that he is convinced news is manufactured because one time he saw Chris Matthews say thank you to his team for preparing his news that day. Despite countless explanations that news shows (even the talking head ones) are scripted and they aren't just freewheeling for an hour every night, he remains convinced that the newsmedia wholesale makes everything up.

My mother in law at least, watches PBS newshour and is far less dumb about that stuff.
