Re: US Elections 2020
Flattered though I might be, a) Biden-Harris was not that hard to predict, and b) I have no interest in, or use for medals.
I want money.

Re: US Elections 2020
Just to give some warning if this snuck up on anyone. The Warnock-Loeffler and Ossoff-Perdue senate races are going to be decided on Tuesday. Democrats can get to 50 senators with Vice President Kamala Harris being the deciding vote if Warnock and Ossoff win in Georgia. I have no idea what will happen but am hopeful Democrats control the senate given how much damage Mitch McConnell's partisanship has caused.

Re: US Elections 2020
The races between Jon Ossoff-David Perdue and Raphael Warnock-Kelly Kelly Loeffler are very tight and will come down to the wire, and i hope that Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock wins those races and flip the senate blue,and i am also hopeful that the Democrats will control the US Senate,and repair the damage that the King Of Enablers Mitch McConnell Partisanship has caused the last 6 years.

Re: US Elections 2020
On Wednesday January 6 the US Congress and Senate are suppose to come together for a joint session of congress to count the votes and certificate the results of the 2020 Presidential Election,however most House Republicans along with 12 Republican Senators plan on objecting to the results by claiming that there is evidence of widespread voter fraud,even though State and
Federal Courts including the US Supreme Court shot down those claims,and the reasons why House and Senate GOP Members are pulling this despicable partisan stunt because they think it will keep them in the good graces of the D.A.M.N and Sore Loser and his base of delusional supporters,and are terrified of receiving mean tweets,being primaried and losing their seats in the US Congress and Senate if they don't along with his false claims,but unfortunately for them their despicable partisan stunt will backfire,and the results will get certified and Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will be sworn in as the next president and vice president of the United States on Wednesday January 20th whether they like it or not.

Re: US Elections 2020
The results of that race will not only determine who controls the Senate, but I think will also be the closing argument of what the 2020 US Elections were all about.
If Perdue and Loeffler win, than that means that not only did the Democrats fail to take the Senate, but they lost some seats in the House and in the state legislatures. Which means that the elections were all about getting Trump out of office, but a majority of Americans are either still not buying the Democrats' message. Or the Democratic party has done a poor job at convincing some Americans to vote for them.
We have talked before about how the future of the Republican party, but I think the Democratic Party would have to start doing some soul searching if they lose both seats on Tuesday.
If Warnock and Ossoff win, I think it will lessen the sting of those other losses and at the same time ensure that some things may actually get done in the Senate.
On a side note, Nancy Pelosi was voted speaker of the House again. While I'm not surprised about that, what I'm surprised about is that the "squad" voted for her. Lets just say Twitter is not happy about it.

Re: US Elections 2020
Aside from the direct implication for the Senate, the vote will also be important for what it tells us about the electoral implications of the Trumpist's brazen attempts to subvert democracy. If there are no adverse implications for the Republican party that does not augur well for the future.

Washington Post reporting on a Trump phonecall where he begs and threatens the Georgia secretary of state to find votes for him.

Re: US Elections 2020
If anyone hasn't listened I really recommend taking a few minutes. Trump is confabulating some nonsense about switched voting machine parts and shredded ballots. Ultimately he is trying to commit election fraud and doing it through extortion.
Raffensperger warned Trump on twitter not to lie about him before he released the video. It would be shocking if there aren't more videos of Trump trying to cheat.
It's astounding how much one person can lie. He said somewhere on there that he won Georgia by hundreds of thousands of votes...I don't ever want to hear from a Republican again about the value of honesty, rule of law, our Constitution, science....a whole list of subjects that are pretty much off limits to them.
