Based on absolutely nothing (truly), I bet there was some sort of ultimatum of this type of statement he had to give in order to avoid the 25th amendment, and see if you can spot all of the lies still in here -- he refused to call the national guard!
Ultimately, a version of this statement should've been given on November 7th. The damage is done. You can't "now it's time to have a smooth transition" out of spending two months trying to upend a free and fair election and then getting *5* people killed with a dumb coup attempt.
I'm not seeing it, but if any journalist does a "wow new tone where has this guy been" when he looks like he's shooting a hostage video, they should immediately lose their job.
Dana Bash should lose her job. A worthless individual who contributes absolutely nothing to journalism. If you say a version of this, you have absolutely no business in news.

David Perdue is down by 45,000 votes (and that could go up!) and still hasn’t conceded yet even after every major news organization called the race for Jon Ossoff two days ago. Even Kelly Loeffler conceded.
"Although we won the general election" fuck off
He can't even say Ossoff's name, he thanks "the Democratic Party and his opponent". Sorry you got humiliated by a guy half your age, go back to your private island.

Listening to these House speeches, it's quite obvious how many are bullshitting -- but it's also striking how you can see how many true believers there are.
These people also have no idea what they’re talking about. It’s just bad faith bullshit.
Literally nothing Kat Cammack has said is true.

Donating to @AlyseGalvin and @WilliamsForMT might be the most important political donations you give this year. And if you can’t donate, phone and text bank. I’ll explain the insanity of contingent elections below.
Before we get started I want to stress that our constitution is deeply stupid and antiquated and some of these ideas never should’ve passed the smell test to begin with. Yet here we are.
If no candidate receives a majority of the vote in the electoral college, the top 3 electoral college vote getters then go to a “contingent election” where the House decides the election. Weird, but simple, right? Lol no

When Obama asked RBG if she would step down -- in 2013 -- Democrats controlled the Senate. When Merrick Garland was nominated -- 2016 -- Republicans controlled the Senate. You can google this, it's free.
Whether or not you think that RBG should have stepped down (she should've and same with Breyer), we don't need to re-write history in order to validate our priors and protect our heroes. People are human. They make mistakes. We move on, there's nothing we can do about it now.

I’m struggling to understand the plan here. Nominate a far-right anti-abortion judge with little cross over appeal and then assume that Democrats will... attack her faith? So that people, who mostly won’t be watching the hearings, forget about the... pandemic they’re living with?
I’m admittedly partisan so I have my biases, but you have to wear a mask everywhere you go. Job loss isn’t something you forget when you turn on the TV and watch the hearings (even “only” 20 mil watched Ford’s testimony for Kavanaugh, there’s no guarantee that’ll happen here)
I also fully cannot believe they’re not nominating Lagoa??????? Like, own the libs I guess but Lagoa would have been an infinitely smarter choice electorally! And less of a chance for a future court expansion.

While the plan seems to be: hope it’s a close election and try to invalidate as many ballots as possible (as of now, a potential, though no means most likely, outcome) the flip side is that there’s a lot of poli sci research that says talking like this only demotivates voters.
This is all coming from a good place but I cannot overstate how unhelpful this rhetoric is towards encouraging people to vote.
This isn’t what Chris and other liberal pundits are doing. They’re presenting a potential scenario as likely and then implying that it will hand Trump the White House again. It’s not preparing people, it makes people feel as if voting is useless.
