I think 2024 is too soon for Ivanka. I predict she'll be a candidate in 2028. But I might be wrong, she might run for president in 2024. And you might laugh at me, I think she has a good chance to win the GOP candidacy in 2028. Watch out. (To be clear, Trump's 2 sons are such born losers, that even the Trumpites won't want them as president).
Not nearly Trumpy enough. I'd be putting my bets on Tucker Carlson.

I'm not sure if a woman would really work for the misogynistic voter base.

I've been watching FOX News and *quote* "Liberal News" stations and heard some new fears. Fears that Trump will retaliate against republican states where he lost in the electoral process. This was a shocker: Reports coming out of Russia that Putin has parkinson's disease so he will be stepping down from office next year (this came from FOX news).

Would not really be surprising. Hitler had his Nero Decree after all in part to punish the German people for failing him.

Looks like Biden took the lead in PA. Holy cow.

Thanks dema and Jason! My understanding is that Biden had a solid lead in Arizona but that it keeps shrinking while more votes are being counted. Some outlets say that it was called for Biden too early so I was wondering if Trump could still overtake him in that state. But I understand that even if he does, it probably won't be enough.

Right now, he has a healthy, but not insurmountable lead in Arizona, and a marginal lead in Nevada. Both of those are likely to go to Biden, considering the remaining uncounted votes are coming primarily from blue counties. Together, they'll give him the 17 EC votes he needs to reach 270, and take the presidency.

Spokeszombie for the Y'allquaida, Steve Bannon, finally says out loud what what Trumpists are saying out loud, (

Threatening the head of the Head of the FBI might be a breach of Bannon's bail conditions. Can someone in Legal check on that?
And the last history book I read implied that moving away from the political mechanisms of Tudor England was a goal of the War Of Independence. Can someone fact check me on that as well?
Thanks.

Like GA, AZ may end up being too close to call without a recount.
But on the other hand, it looks like Jason was correct and Biden is going to pull away in PA. So I'll bet we start seeing some victory declarations for Biden today. Of course, things won't really be over until we know what's going to happen with all the challenges.
