Right? To me it’s a “yes and” situation and not a “yes but” situation.
both things are true. We got a good victory after the red mirage, and also a lot of Trump’s over-performance is cause for concern going forward.

Precise and cold hearted
If you stop counting there are fewer votes. Believe me. But if you recount you find good votes. Not bad votes. Believe me.Trump is a fukkin clown till the end
Recount Wisconsin
Stop counting in Michigan
There's an internet narrative that moderates were scared that Biden would step aside or get 25th-ed and Kamala would take over.

Trump is gonna kick and scream and cause a lot of fuss, but he’s going to have less votes and lose the EC and the popular vote.are we really gonna win this? am i dreaming?
How will his base behave? We’ll see
She probably netted zero voters. Brought a few in and scared a few off. That’s just my assessment which is completely based on conjecture.

"in separate opinions in the Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina cases, four Justices—Justices Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Clarence Thomas—have endorsed arguments that could be used to change the rules for counting ballots after the election. The nub of the argument is that the Constitution commits to a state legislature the power to fix rules for elections, and so when other state actors change the rules, even for the best of reasons, they are actually violating the federal Constitution (even if, as in Pennsylvania, the change is based upon how the state supreme court interprets state law—a matter on which it is supposed to have the last word). On this theory, any otherwise lawful ballots received after the receipt deadline imposed by the state legislature is invalid, no matter what state authorities and state courts may conclude to the contrary... But in the Pennsylvania case, Alito explained exactly what could happen if that state (and the entire presidential election) ends up turning on whether the deadline imposed by the state legislature or the one imposed by the state supreme court should control.
Election Law Primer: What to Expect During and After the 2020 Election
- First, he wrote that “there is a strong likelihood that the [Pennsylvania] Supreme Court decision violates the Federal Constitution. The provisions of the Federal Constitution conferring on state legislatures, not state courts, the authority to make rules governing federal elections would be meaningless if a state court could override the rules adopted by the legislature simply by claiming that a state constitutional provision gave the courts the authority to make whatever rules it thought appropriate for the conduct of a fair election.” (Never mind that state constitutions – adopted by state legislatures – grant state supreme courts the ability to do exactly that.)
- Second, and more ominously, although the Court refused to intervene for now, Alito pointed out that it could always intervene later. As he wrote, “we have been informed by the Pennsylvania Attorney General that the Secretary of the Commonwealth issued guidance today directing county boards of elections to segregate ballots received between 8:00 p.m. on November 3, 2020, and 5:00 p.m. on November 6, 2020. Nothing in the Court’s order today precludes Petitioner from applying to this Court for relief if, for some reason, it is not satisfied with the Secretary’s guidance” (emphasis added). In other words, if the result in Pennsylvania ends up coming down to the ballots that arrive during that 45-hour window, Alito could be foreshadowing that the Court may throw those ballots out under Kavanaugh’s theory. And Justices Gorsuch and Thomas joined Alito’s opinion without any caveat.

I think this is gonna be the talking point that the "Bernie" people will exploit during the Biden term
No matter what happens the black community is going to have to have the conversation on a national level that no matter the party or coalition we can't trust none of this shyt.
The way this ADOS and YouTube propaganda has infiltrated and propagated our community, twitter making nikkas complacent in the echo chamber, our celebs embracing and name dropping white people who don't have our best interest in heart off the strength of maybe getting some thing out of it. We can't even depend on minorities of other races to fight for their best interest we can't lose that asset as a community but we also can't depend on Dems to do anything to properly service our grievances either especially with Republican senate left to fukk around with everything against us (If Biden even wins of course.)

In case anyone who has him blocked can't see it, I'm quoting Nap who just said, "Low key. Kamala scared a lot of people off."
I just want that in a searchable post history so that we never forget this moment after 8 months of dikk riding.
