https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/12/14/us/joe-biden-trump#biden-tops-270-votes-in-the-electoral-college-affirming-his-presidential-victorySo it's "technically" official but if we're being honest, 99% of people knew this was going to happen the morning of November 4th when Joe Biden's mail in ballot scam pushed his senile ass over the finish line, just barely. The lawsuits were a bit ridiculous and I think the extreme far right Trump base with the IQ of a peanut legitimately believes there was magnitudes of fraud that stretch hundreds of thousands of votes. Just isn't enough evidence. On the other hand, it was hilarious watching the far left (and the media) have a melt down over "democracy dying" when Trump literally followed the law in contesting the results by letting the legal process play out. For some weird reason, democrats seem more concerned about Trump and contested election results more so than a rabid media that managed to fool Americans that Trump is responsible for COVID, that he said it was a hoax, that he's a racist, that a vaccine at the end of the year was impossible, so on. But why be concerned when it helps, right?
Since things are certified, this also means house republicans had a blow out down the ticket. Nearly 30 seats were toss ups and Republicans nearly won all of them. Some GOP senators were projected to lose, and a couple of them kept their seat -- Susan Collins keeping her seat was huge. Martha McSally losing her seat was miserable and she did a great job in costing Trump Arizona by being useless. She was also running against an astronaut and husband of Gabby Gifford, who was the former house woman that survived the assassination attempt, so it was probably a wrap regardless, even if McSally was a decent senator.
Congrats to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, I guess.
