Joe Biden will be the 46th president of the United States. Were done. Its all over but the weeping and rending of MAGA garments.Rick Wilson
Editor-At-Large
Published Nov. 10, 2020
The Trump regime is in full and robust collapse. Its not just his loss at the polls. Hes lost the magic. The mojo is shot. Gone is the impervious Trump of legend. Now, hes a surly, frustrated man facing humiliation, prosecution, and ignominyone who will forever bear the mantle of loser.
Like every failing authoritarian regime, Trumps followed the Hemingway Rule: The collapse came slowly, then all at once. He and his gang were impervious to accountability, sanction, or justice until they werent. Now, desperation is delicious and spreading nearly as fast as the virus is among his inner circle. The dying twitches of the apparat built to support the whinging sociopath who stains the Oval Office, for now, have become more and more apparent. The unenviable job of telling the Maximum Leader that the game is over has fallen to his hapless son-in-law, who hardly cuts the figure of wartime consigliere. Hes more of a wartime hand model.

What frightens the Trump White House most is that Biden is moving competently, steadily, and sanely to appropriately assemble a transition, starting with a crack team of scientists, epidemiologists, public health experts, and others who will provide an unaccustomed professional approach to COVID. Americans admire Anthony Fauci, but hes quite clearly been sidelined by Trumps pet charlatan, Scott Atlas, who is willing to kill a few million Americans to prove his garbage herd immunity theory.
So Trump will posture, shit-tweet, rage, and promise fell and terrible legal and political consequences to all who oppose him. Hell declare victory even as he sinks beneath a wave of ballots in a dozen states. I will tell you once again: It wont work. The transition will occur and Trumps lackeys, ball-washers, and assorted minions will get shit-canned along with Trump himself.

(11,495 posts)as long as the braindead cult keeps giving him their money, he will continue. For trump it's always about making money, and all these "protest's" feeds his ego, and every narcissist has to always be the center of attention.
