John Oliver sums it up... nicely? Well?

While you are there, look up his Farewell 2020 segment. And no I am not providing a link. This isn't my fight!

Sorry. It's HBO. I don't know how to fix that. Try a VPN maybe?

Give us the title of the video and we can find an alt source.

I don't care if Trump actually concedes or not. It's annoying that his administration won't work with Biden's transition team, but that's a short term problem, a hiccup in the process that's not likely to cause long term damage. I'm more worried about all of the policy he's trying to push through in a rush before inauguration day.
And where is the Republican party going to go after Trump leaves office? I hope it starts to move back towards traditional Republican positions. But I'm not confident. It's too caught up in an alternate reality bubble. Just how reactionary is it going to get?

That's right, those are the two worries. People are expecting Trump to go increasingly scorched earth as his term draws to a close, and they expect the GOP base is going to slow cook the "Stolen 2020 election" narrative in their tiny smoker hearts until it glows white hot and fills their head with the acrid vapor of indignation, poisoning everything, like they can't tolerate living or working with Dems after this unforgivable insult. And they're already looking to 2024 to have their final revenge after being "stabbed in the back" by elites for the last time. =L
As always, I am counting on American laziness and apathy to see us through this dark probability. Man, how far we've strayed from those Gen-X halcyon days.

A parent put up a video where she yelled at a teacher over the phone for "indoctrinating" her students that Biden won the election, making the teacher start to cry. Maybe the funniest part is, "my son said you looked the map up on Google, but I looked it up on OAN..." :laff: As if Google is in on the conspiracy now. If you want to know what's happening in the US, the GOP base is abandoning Fox News en masse because it's too liberal and moving over to Newsmax and OAN (also to Parler over Facebook), which are even more crackpot loony than Fox ever was.
And the hilarious part is it's not even the teacher that put up the video to ridicule the mother as a crackpot Karen (which she undoubtedly comes across as); it was the mother to show her outrage to the teacher, because she was so sure she was right & the students are being indoctrinated. And I have no doubt a lot of the millions of people watching it are sure she's right too and ready to storm their own schools to prevent such "misinformation" getting spread. What a world.
