Here is the order for machine recount in the U.S. Senate race. They (Senate & Gov.) have the same deadline. No later than 3:00 p.m. November, 15, 2018. dos.myflorida.com/media/700282/m…
FYI, "machine recount indicated" simply means the unofficial results triggered a machine recount. The orders are issued and both recounts are due for completion no later than 3:00 p.m. November 15, 2018.

1. If someone was elected promising "Hope and Change," but a corrupt status quo accepted him, then what hope was there for change?

None, and to think otherwise is self-delusion.

Real change comes at a cost to stability, and the status quo fights back. They don't roll over.
2. Now for the other side.

The election of one man to the presidency, a revolution does not make. If you were honest, wouldn't you admit that you are too easy on your party?

Everyone wants to blame an "other." But the corrupt status quo & its construct in D.C., are bipartisan.
3. Now for The New York Times, which I'm sure you figured out is the point of this thread.

Aside from their editor trashing them the other day for no longer being a news organization, if you consider them a reliable source of news, they you're a chump. An intel played, chump.

I have the same advice for Democrats re: AOC as I did for Republicans re: DJT.

Focus on policy and people, and shut your mouths long enough to maybe figure out why it is she resonates.

No one cares what you think. That's why we have them both.

Further...
Notice AOC criticizes but does not obsess over Donald Trump? She's substantively wrong but substantive, nonetheless.

She focuses on policy and people, something she ripped right from Donald Trump. No one cares if someone offends your delicate sensibilities. It's not about you...
Since no one really buys your "I'm so offended" holier/smarter than thou acts, people naturally begin to ask why these outsiders are met with such a visceral response.

B/C they don't buy the holier or smarter than thou acts, they conclude it is B/C they threaten a status quo...

On Day 1, Democrats proposed amending the U.S. Constitution to expand the power of the federal government. @GOP had total control and a record number of states govs.

They didn't introduce a single amendment.

That's why @MittRomney & Co. lost the GOP base to @realDonaldTrump.
FTR, I should say the GOP didn't "push" a single amendment. They are the kings and queens of token gestures. But they're never really serious about scaling back the federal government, or advancing the general cause of liberty.

Point being, Democrats fight the big fights.
Along comes someone like Donald Trump. They never saw it coming because they got used to their base being suckers.

Showing up to CPAC claiming to be "severely conservative" just wasn't good enough anymore after decades of screwing over your base for personal gain and profit.

Here's where we are on the Florida recounts: (thread!) nytimes.com/2018/11/10/us/…
The Florida Department of State says all 67 counties met the noon deadline to report unofficial results. Secretary of State Ken Detzner has ordered statewide machine recounts in Senate, governor and ag commissioner races. Those results are due by 3 p.m. Thursday
Machine recounts were ordered because the three statewide races are within 0.5%. Two -- Senate and ag commish -- are within 0.25%. If they remain under that threshold after the machine recounts are completed, those races will head to manual recounts, to be completed by Nov. 18

Here's the final 'unofficial' vote totals from all of Florida's 67 counties.

Scott leads Nelson by 12,562
DeSantis leads Gillum by 33,684

Both races qualify for a recount (under 0.5%)
But it's important to remember that each race will be dealt with differently.

The Senate race gets a manual recount (under 0.25%).

The Governor's race gets a machine recount (under 0.5%)
Meanwhile, the county election supervisors wait for the green light from the Florida Secretary of State on a recount

Trump does not care. These are not heroes, they didnt make it, remember. All he cares about is himself, his needs, his whims. He calls the WH a "sacred" place and then berates reporters there. He believes he is America's only salvation. Trump is a narcissist of the highest order.
Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel unveil commemorative plaque at the spot where the Armistice ending World War One was signed 100 years ago. #armistice100

Trump didnt go bc of light rain (°53F) and is instead sitting in his hotel room tweeting.
The Pax Americana is over.

Scott Dworkin: It's almost a certainty that Mueller will try Manafort for the ten charges that ended in a hung jury in the previous trial.
@funder @TheDemCoalition #DworkinReport
Scott Dworkin: Manafort can't push back much; he's really disadvantaged at this point. He'd have to give up something absolutely crazy or he'll be in prison for the rest of his life.
@funder @TheDemCoalition #DworkinReport
Rick: Or, Trump could pardon Manafort.

@KurtSchlichter @johncardillo Kurt, MSM & Dimms didn’t expect Guillum would win the nomination, oopsy, now they r covering up the true scandals by smearing DeSantis:
breitbart.com/big-government…
@KurtSchlichter @johncardillo An FBI corruption investigation has several Tallahassee officials caught up in its net including Gillum & a lobbyist/restauranteur Adam Corey
Since the arrival of FBI subpoenas last summer,nowhere has the dark cloud been more forbidden than over city hall
breitbart.com/big-government…
@KurtSchlichter @johncardillo Thru out much of this scandal Gillum has been absent from Tallahassee & waging his gubernatorial effort thru out the state of Florida..

Will the good people in FL vote for a Crook who’s under FBI investigation? breitbart.com/big-government…
