I mean I get how him performing well compared to Clinton's 2016 numbers is a good thing but it's still loving bizarre to get the information communicated as "Oh man this is GREAT, here's how much Biden is losing by!! :)"

Fox News might find themselves as part of the "stabbed in the back" narrative that we're going to see build around Trump.

I think maybe it's because Pennsylvania in 2016 ended up being a very narrow win by Trump. Like 45,000 votes or so

two historically great campaigns i would say
Hillary managed to split the liberal votes and after 4 years of Trump, we all unanimously want anyone but Trump.

If Trump loses and runs again in 2024 it'll be another poo poo-show IMO. The actually liberal Democrats won't think Biden's doing a great job are going to become complacent again like they did with Hillary Clinton and apparently almost half the country is just down with being fascists and open racists and everyone knows Trump isn't just going to go away. The republican party is Trump's party now even somewhat reasonable Republicans are going to be eclipsed by Trump-style republicans.

Seems like it. They probably have access to casino workers who could count the outstanding vote single-handedly, but they decided to take it slow.

Not to get too prematurely optimistic here but if Trump loses and both Georgia seats end up going to runoff what are the odds that deflated chuds don't bother showing up when Trump isn't on the ballot?

They've been continuing to count but they just stopped giving updates presumably because they don't want poo poo like what's happening right now in AZ with crazy protestors. Basically they want to be 100% confident with their count before announcing so there's no way to claim shenanigans

They released an FAQ saying everything was going according to their normal schedule, so my guess is their policy is to have daily dumps from now until they stop accepting additional absentee ballots by mail.

I think the best chance here is Trump going nuclear on the GOP in response to them refusing to obviously throw the election to him combined with a really nasty COVID winter.
