Trump has lost dozens of election related court cases. Coming into today, he'd only won a single case, netting him a handful of votes. Today that was overturned, meaning Trump is back to not having won a single court case. Results would be the same if his lawyers hadn't shown up.

I am embarrassed to be a political journalist. This is a profession full of bullshitters who promote nonsensical doomsday hype in the hope of scaring people into staying tuned in, because all they care about is ratings and page views.
I am embarrassed to be a political activist. Most of you eagerly sit around and lap up this doomsday bullshit, because you're more interested in feeling the adrenaline rush of panicking than you are in the truth, or in trying to win.
Democratic politicians do a good job of fighting and winning for us. They really do.
If there's one thing they underestimate, it's how far removed from reality a lot of Democratic supporters are, after MSNBC spends all day convincing them of impossible doomsday scenarios.
Democratic politicians are always trying to convince us to get up and fight and win, which is the right approach. But far too many of us are too busy hiding under our beds from imaginary ghosts, all because MSNBC wants to hit its ratings marks.
Are we really going to ask Democratic politicians to spend time coddling us and convincing us to come out from our beds? Because when they have to push those narratives, they can't really push the narratives that win political battles. Those narratives aren't compatible.
The fatalists on our side are doing extreme harm today by running around insisting that Trump might find some way to magically overturn the election. These gullible dumb fucks on our side are handing Trump leverage that he doesn't have. I will forever resent the hell out of them.
The facts and evidence make clear that there is a literally 100% precent chance Biden will take office. Just because your brain is too fucked up to process that evidence, it doesn't make it untrue. It just makes you part of the problem. SIT DOWN. Let the rest of us fight and win.
Trump knows he has a literally 0.0% chance of magically remaining in office. But you gullible types are handing him leverage that he can use to demand concessions, such as immunity, on his way out the door. You're unwittingly helping him. SIT THE FUCK DOWN.

- Won't go anywhere
- Michigan has confirmed that the vote will be certified statewide on Monday
- President Biden coordinates with Republican Governors

Biden won with a lot of progressives, a lot of moderate liberals, and a handful of moderate conservatives, so that's what his administration has to look like.
"I voted for Biden, therefore I demand his administration look ideologically identical to me" is how a child thinks.
This goes for everyone on all sides of the ideological spectrum who ends up whining once they see that Biden's cabinet is ideologically diverse, instead of just being one thing. Biden has a responsibility to keep his entire coalition together. It's literally how governing works.
If Biden doesn't spend the next four years working to keep his entire coalition together, it'll open the door for the republicans to elect a Trump clone in 2024, and then our nation will die.
Biden will play no role in Trump’s federal prosecution. He’ll pick a solid AG who will make those decisions independently. Biden is only publicly lamenting about prosecuting Trump so it won’t look partisan when the AG does it. Everyone stop fretting over this, it’s a non-issue.
Besides, Trump will try to pardon himself on federal charges. The delay from the resulting court battle will mean that New York will get first crack at him on state charges. If federal charges come after the pardon mess is sorted out, Trump will be in state prison by then anyway.
I see many people going completely out of their minds, turning against Biden, doing the “all hope is lost, Trump is going to get away with it all” routine, and it’s over NOTHING. If you’re going to have a mental breakdown over politics, at least learn how politics works first.
