This is so fucking exhausting. The only correct answer is "he will be escorted out by security."
Then Trump will be wrong. The president doesn't get to say when everyone has to stop counting.
And they'll do what? Bomb polling sites? Get a fucking grip. Biden's "coercive power" is that he'll be the person who just won a presidential election.
Peak Twitter Brain is thinking that Trump calling in air strikes is more likely that Biden overperforming his polling by two points and winning over 400 electoral votes.
And please spare me the "but what if riles up his supporters!" A bunch of Confederate flag-waving dorks in ships that can't handle lakes aren't going to beat the fucking US military.

I'm Doing The Work and reading Angela Davis's Are Prisons Obsolete. It starts with the gobsmacking claim that anti-slavery was a fringe position until the Civil War. This would be a surprise to Pennsylvania, which outlawed slavery in 1780.
She repeatedly claims that "no one could imagine a world without slavery." Not only were Northern states outlawing it mere years after the Revolution, it was being outlawed all over the world. We're not off to a great start here.
There's just an enormous amount of self-flattery here. Before any arguments are made we're told that by being a prison abolitionist you are John Brown's ideological heir, whom she refers to as an "activist." That's like calling Michelangelo an interior decorator.
I can't keep up with what's cringe anymore. Apparently Ted Lasso is bad now? Just send me a monty list of the two or three things it's ok to enjoy.
I know you're always allowed to like The Simpsons and The Sopranos because they were very popular in the childhoods/adolescence of men born in the 80s and of a certain disposition.
Like if anyone can be a cop then cops aren't cops.
If police unions were like normal unions they wouldn't be encouraging scabs. Could you imagine if the WGA was like "fan fiction writers do great work, networks should give them a shot."
It is in facf a pretty wild story about DC's most unprofessional and incompetent staffer who came to work on mushrooms, answered constituent letters without approval, and was eventually fired for not showing up at all. Oh and he thinks Raytheon engineered the war in Ukraine.
