    I know where the Electoral College votes for the state I live in are going. Not happy about it. My wife is at about 11 on the scale for outrage against Trump. I’ll just rant vicariously through her.

    The scenario never changes in Virginia. The early votes come in from the sticks, and people think there's a chance that it may flip red. Then the late Fairfax/Arlington/Alexandria votes come in and it ends up comfortably blue. I doubt that changes this time. Youngkin hasn't exactly stirred a revolution here.

    But Fox News will never report on any of those instances. So the people who need to hear about them will never know about them. Ignorant, uninformed, etc...

    All leading candidates want their races over as quickly as possible, but Trump has a special imperative. The sooner Haley drops out, the sooner he can fuck off to Mar-a-Lago and Bedminster to play golf while right-wing media does his campaigning for him. The less Trump is in the news, the better he does. Been that way since 2016.

    It's a drag to be fat and old

    Things are different today
    I hear MAGA fascists say
    They just want a fucking pig to rule the world
    He's a racist piece of shit
    They're extremely proud of it
    They will stage an insurrection
    To reverse the fair election
    They'll just drive the USA
    To its dying fascist day

    Haley should stay in just in case Trump actually does get convicted of something, which would make her the defacto person ready to step in

    WTF is all this "she must drop out!!!" nonsense? It's PRIMARY season. Let people fucking vote. Are they that scared somebody will start saying mean things about their savior (which she should have been doing months ago)? How many election cycles have had only 1 challenger standing before February?

    Stefanik wants Haley to drop out because that moves her up a rung.

    This is exactly where she is at the moment. She just needs donors to do it, and that makes it difficult. But she will hang around as long as she realistically can and try to collect delegates on the hope that Trump gets convicted of something or he does something else that is so horrible that it ends his candidacy.

    He never mentions the word "insurrection"
    In certain company
    Yes, he'll tell you he's a patriot
    After he tried to destroy our democracy

    He knows his heart is black as night now
    Pulls the base in tight
    Yeah, he gives a smile when the pain come
    The pain gonna make everything alt-right

    Says he talks to Russians
    They call him out by his name
    Oh yeah, he talks to Russians
    They call him out by his name
