@RitaOldLadyDem_ We'd be well served by a strong show of force from the Capitol police. It's pretty obvious that the thugs will try to enter and cause chaos and mayhem. They must be kept far away.

Kids, I'm outta here at least for the foreseeable. Unlikely I'll be back. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

Unemployment is at historic lows, inflation is the lowest in the world, interest rates are coming down, real wages are the highest they've ever been. This has all been done under the Biden Administration.

Trump will now take credit for all of it, before he destroys it all again.

We are engulfed by depravity. But it’s more important than ever not to succumb to it.

This morning feels like 2004 and Brexit. Some people will try to make it about what the Dems could have done better. But the truth will be that the right lied, it lied a lot, the media didn't provide guardrails, and stupid people voted for bad things for dumb reasons.

He was the worst President in history. And when he got voted out, he tried to stage a coup. Then he stole national secrets and sold the ones he didn't store in the bathroom.

He was convicted of fraud, found liable of sexual assault and convicted of 34 felonies. He is half a billion dollars in debt, owned by God only knows who, and the biggest national security risk the nation has ever had.

But at least he's not a Black woman.

Democracy is clarity. As a student of human behavior, I believe it reflects the will of the people. The race is not over but the blame game has begun. I will not let the pundits scapegoat Black voters. I will not let you scapegoat Arab American voters. Not even the shift of Latino voters. Donald Trump was supported by White men, White women, non college educated and college educated. Suburban White women and rural White women by a majority. It’s clear that my neighbors, coworkers, and friends have no problem with a convicted felon, convicted rapist, racist, and misogynist leading their government. They share his values. People show you who they are.

@BenjySarlinctorate mad at a FALSE incumbent WH record and expressing it pretty uniformly everywhere, blue and red states alike."
Biden is one of the most successful presidents in modern America. The Biden WH's record is exemplary. Trump's propaganda machine is just better at lying.

White people in America should never again talk about criminal behavior, amongst Black people, immigrants, or anyone else when they are literally casting ballots for a convicted felon to be president of the United States.

NYT gave:
Clinton 80% odds early on election night 2016
Trump 80% odds at this point in the night 2020
Trump 80% odds as of 10:30pm ET tonight 2024

cold comfort, i know!

If you're a Democrat, it is far too early to doom.

Patience.

Folks, DeSantis won Florida by TWENTY points in 2022. We still won state wide in NV, MI, WI, PA, AZ, GA.

Florida is not a bellwether state.

NEW: A Trump-appointed judge has rejected the RNC’s claim that some GA counties violated the law by accepting in-person delivery of absentee ballots over the weekend. The claim "does not withstand even the most basic level of statutory review and reading comprehension," he said.

It’s because it’s a bullshit lie.

The Lincoln Project did not tweet this, and you well know it.

Go onto

Turnout. Gender gap. Undecideds. All breaking her way.

The red wave 2024 campaign created - for a time - a false impression of strength for Trump, as similar effort did for Republicans in 2022. They released almost 200 polls since late August, 100+ in last 9 days.

Many folks got played, again. 3/

NEW: The elections director of Fayette County, Pa., says in a court filing that a township election judge allegedly plans to hand-count ballots after polls close & asks a state court to order the official to comply with state law that does not allow that

Reupping my list of reliable numbers crunchers to make sense of election results as they happen. Each person on the list is smart/reliable. Low on commentary, high on making sense of results as they come in. x.com/i/lists/706696…

This is not true. It is classic disinformation. The likeliest suspect is a Russian troll farm. It’s isn’t even that good of a fake….but it is fake. It is a lie. Please let anyone you know that this is a steaming pile of Russian…well you get it.
