251. they will steal and i'll bet every first family gets some slack but staff needs to watch the gold...

tonight would be nice but they're saying penn and georgia might take a few hours

lost a lot of sleep lately, not sure how long i'll stay up. it would be sad if the morning joe crew got to break it

on the positive side a republican insider says the republican establishment is really sick of trump. their future is tied to how he leaves
