I’m going to enjoy watching you fall apart over the coming weeks, the Winter evenings are so bleak as well you know. MAGA could send you down those tracks whooping like a native in your Liverpool undies yet again.
Yes all you have in your sad little life is laughing at the absolute catastrophe that another Trump presidency will bring for so many millions of people in America and worldwide on top the already unfolding catastrophes.
So, soooo funny.
Go and have a wank underneath your Trump duvet looking at your Lee and Rommel and Cromwell posters.
I hear the train a comin it’s rollin round the bend
These so called liberals are so full of rage and hate. They lash out at the drop of a hat. Thankfully us decent folk dont sink to such levels.

Rob The Racist is desperate for a white president and has been since 2012.
There’s an aul lad living in Howth that named his dog after him.
Like most people views in Ireland about SF
- As far as we know, she’s not a serial rapist.
- The other fella is.
Typical headbanger making up lies.
But no surprise coming from Walter mitty himself
The Big Steal is very much planned and on.

Say what? A new law has empowered Georgia’s Election Board, controlled by MAGA extremists, to reject any county’s results. This is scary: the Board already voted a resolution saying that, in 2020, they would not have certified the vote in Fulton County. That’s Atlanta!!!
If even one county is not certified, then the Governor is not allowed to certify any Electors to the Electoral College. In that case, Harris loses Georgia’s 16 Electoral votes, possibly pushing her below the 270 threshold. Then America gets dragged into the 12th Amendment swamp.
This documentary is well worth a watch.

I found this electoral college map fairly interesting and probably realistic.
However a hypothetical - what if the 1 congressional vote in Nebraska thats currently blue was to flip, what would happen if they were both deadlocked on 269?
Advantage Trump if there’s a tie. This scenario could also happen if the Republicans refuse to certify the election in particular states, ie. if they try to steal the election, which they will try to do if they lose.
What happens if there’s a tie?
If there’s a 269-269 tie, or if a third party or independent candidate wins electoral votes and keeps a candidate from reaching an Electoral College majority of 270, the next step is the same. It’s called a “contingent election.”
According to the 12th Amendment, enacted in the wake of that divisive 1800 election, if no candidate gets a majority of the Electoral College votes, the new Congress, which would have just been sworn in on January 3, chooses the president. The Senate would choose the vice president.
When would a ‘contingent election’ occur?
According to an analysis by the Congressional Research Service, a contingent election would occur on January 6, immediately after members of Congress met to count electoral votes and determined that no candidate had a majority.
There is a lot of information from that CRS report in this story. While it dates back to 2017, it’s still a valuable resource.
How would the process work?
The nation would clearly be divided. Lawmakers could be torn between supporting their preferred candidate and the one their state’s voters preferred.
In a contingent election, the House selects the president and the Senate selects the vice president. House members can only choose from among the top three finishers in the Electoral College for president, and senators can choose from among the top two finishers for vice president. Kennedy would presumably need to win electoral votes – win a state or a congressional district in Nebraska or Maine – in order to be an option in a contingent election. There’s no chance of that happening at the moment.
Rather than voting as individuals, each state delegation in the House would get one vote, although how the state delegations select their preferred candidate is not spelled out. A simple majority, 26 state delegation votes, would appoint the new president.
If state delegations in the House did not select a president by Inauguration Day, January 20, the new vice president selected by the Senate would become temporary president. It is possible the Senate could select a vice president when the House is deadlocked, because in the Senate each senator would get one vote.
If the Senate had not selected a vice president by January 20, the presidential succession plan in the 20th Amendment temporarily takes effect. First in line after the vice president is the speaker of the House, currently Mike Johnson, although it could be a different Republican or a Democrat if Democrats win a majority in the House this November.

Republicans have majorities in both upper and lower houses? Hard to keep track.
It depends on what happens on election night as it will be a new congress but think it’s likely they will have majorities in both.
House is probably more up in the air than the senate though as all seats are in play. Republicans are virtually certain to take the senate. The Democrats are certain to lose West Virginia, very likely to lose Montana, and Ohio is looking dodgy at best. They have almost no possible gains bar a very outside shot at Texas.
