Of course not, I never said that or implied that!  On the contrary, I've said a couple of times that I haven't seen everything.  I'll reiterate that I haven't seen a credible fraud allegation.  I agreed a couple of times that the PA supreme court is overstepping their authority.

Look, Rich - everything I post here is (a) my opinion, or (b) info. I found somewhere, and in that case I usually post a link. 

I am not asking you to like my opinion.  I am not sure why you have gotten so upset by me calling the race for Biden.  It is my opinion.  It is well founded (my opinion about my opinion!)  If you don't like my opinion then fine.  No worries.  Seriously.

Good point.   As you know however, I agree with PK above.

p.s.  I have a lot more confidence in the resilience of this country and our system of governance than you do.  J

Biden Wins! And More Electoral Votes Coming...

James was being sarcastic PK.  A few years ago someone tried to argue that Trump won in a landslide.  I remember posting at the time that a 10,000 vote majority in MI was hardly a "landslide."  I would bet big money that James is sarcastically referring to that past conversation.

I agree with you on the substance of your post.

I tuned in at 8:00 Eastern, but there was no speech.  None of the networks seemed to have any info at all.  When did he actually make the speech?  I'll watch on line tonight.

Before the election, I dismissed the many articles in the lefty press claiming that Trump would refuse to leave the White House as lefty "angst porn."  I still think that.  I still think he'll leave when the time comes.  But he is certainly going to do it as ungraciously as humanly possible.

Good for him.  I would much rather have Trump golfing than brooding in his office somewhere plotting specious litigation.  This almost suggests that he'll get over the loss sooner rather than later.

Super spreader events nationwide

Posted By James Brown

I do have to channel my inner Rich for a moment.  I watched the speech last night and watched the coverage before and after for a while.  The hypocrisy of the D's concerning the 'rona directed at Trump's earlier gatherings was hugely apparent.  Massive crowds packed elbow to elbow.  Lots of mask-less folks.  Lots of chin diaper mask wearing.  Lots of yelling and singing. Not a peep from the network about it, at least not the network I was watching.
