So the official view of the “Trump Always Wins” sect of the Republican Party is that it is perfectly reasonable for a Presidential candidate to win the popular vote, win the electoral vote, but still not ascend to the Presidency if 51 Senators say “Nah”
To be honest, I don’t know if this is even a mainstream view of the GOP or simply the mantra of a tiny but vocal sect of Trump dead-enders who believe “Trump Always Wins” is an immutable law of the Universe that the mainstream media just hasn’t figured out yet
I don’t know WTF these people think is going to happen on January 6th after Congress inevitably confirms the Biden election but clearly they think the Proud Boys are going to serve as some kind of MAGA enforcement militia
A successful obstruction to the Biden Presidency would be a coup in all but name, although you’ll never get the “Law & Order” faction that’s spent the last year scolding BLM for “rioting” & “looting” to admit it
These are the people who believe that the election was rigged in multiple states & the only reason 59 lawsuits were thrown out of court is because the judges were terrified of retaliation from BLM & Antifa.

You cannot reason with anyone in the “Trump Always Wins” sect.
And I will once again note the irony of the people who repeatedly insist “We’re not a democracy, we’re a REPUBLIC!” suddenly deciding that they’re not interested in living in a republic anymore

Does she think that if the MSM were nicer to Trump voters, they’d start paying more attention to the media when they report the objectively terrible things Trump is doing?
Which sect of Trump voters does Meghan McCain believe are worthy of respect?

The aggressively deceitful ones who know that Trump is lying, or the deeply gullible ones who are brainwashed into believing that Trump and only Trump is telling the truth?

“Patriots” in 2020 translates to “Angry white guys with guns”
Most Trump supporters looked at Kyle Rittenhouse and thought “What a patriot!” Which makes perfect sense if you interpret “patriot” to mean “an angry white guy with a gun”
The State Capitol Building was surrounded by “patriots” who were there to protest Michigan’s social distancing ordinances.

Many people considered these “patriots” to be a threat.

Reports later came of a plot by “patriots” to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

COUNTERARGUMENT: The Trump supporters who do know Biden supporters have steadfastly refused to listen to a word any of us have said because they have all been brainwashed into beliving that mainstream media is a tool of the Deep State & never to be trusted washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
The implicit solution of the article is that Trumpism can be cured by exposing the participants to friendly voices from the other side, but the very structure of the cult is designed to reflexively reject such voices as unwitting participants of a huge anti-Trump conspiracy
LESSONS LEARNED

- When you eliminate shame from the equation, Republicans will happily lie again & again to get what they want

- When truth & power are at cross-purposes, the GOP will always choose power

- Sunlight is not always the best disinfectant; it is merely the easiest

Said results were too suspicious

Oliver Stone had fewer questions about the Kennedy assassination than I have about this letter Image
1. *IS* a “Grinch fetish” a common thing?
2. How does this woman know that
3. If you have to assure us twice that it is a common thing, then how common is it really
4. Was she expecting significantly greater enthusiasm from her partner than “grudging acceptance”
5. Does she believe our reaction to the description of a “long, fuzzy dick” will be substantially different than it actually is
6. How insulted should the creators of the live-action Grinch film be when even a woman who is SEXUALLY AROUSED BY THE GRINCH doesn’t want to watch it

I can imagine a wonderful ironic twist to this tale, perhaps worthy of The Twilight Zone
thedailybeast.com/trump-trying-t…
Not to suggest that I have spent an inordinate amount of time thinking about That One Thing We Are Not Allowed to Openly Discuss on Twitter But a Lot of Us Sure Do Hope Will Happen
Trump is not just vain & self-obsessed, but openly cruel. If he had won the election, the first thing he would have posted on Twitter would be mockery of Joe Biden for being a worthless, out-of-touch geezer who deluded himself into thinking he was powerful enough to stop Trump.
