    Hasn’t big business always been about the $$? They know that the Orange Stain has run its course, they got their trillion dollar tax cut and that path is done. If the GOP tries to hijack the election, no one is buying equities.

    Wall Street believes they are smarter than DC. And their definition of smarter is how much money do you have. Wall Street is like pro sports, the larger the contract the smarter the player, they believe. They also believe they could make money in 1953 Russia. All they care about is a short term stability. If Trump steals the election it will create turmoil. 1987 stock market crash is on the table.

    That scene was in reference to the Secret Service escorting the President to safety in the event of some kind of attack ... not removing him from the White House.

    Yeah, the stock market's been certain of Biden's win since ... the day BEFORE Election Day. The smart money says it's over.

    Just saw the first poll numbers for the Georgia Senate runoffs. Perdue holds a 4 point lead over Ossoff, but Warnock is within 1 of Loeffer.

    If I'm forecasting the results, I'm guessing Perdue/Warnock.

    It's the same playbook, only the hagiography wasn't produced to help one of the defeated heroes create a billion-dollar-a-year cable news vehicle.

    Three others invalidated, including one in Colorado who was barred from voting. He and two others sued, case went to SCOTUS, which ruled unanimously that states can require an elector to vote for the candidate to whom they had pledged.

    The trick was making a conquered people feel like they won ... something.

    The trick here is making a mental deficient believe he is still even slightly relevant.

    Trump/McConnell will shutdown the government and that is how he’ll burn down the country.
