Too. Freaking. Funny.
How many rallies has the traitor held today?
And every one of them he repeats that we have “hydrosonic missiles”
Not a single one of his aides, speech writers, or idiot kids care to correct him

trump/republicans sued to stop ballot counting in NV. They ... LOST
https://twitter.com/AaronDFordNV/status/1319759978593308672 my @NevadaAG’s Office just defeated Pres. Trump's & @NVGOP's request for a temporary restraining order to stop the counting of the ballots.
Again I say, we will always protect the right to vote, and we won't let it be suppressed.

All planned to give them political cover in their respective states
**GOP Sens. Collins and Murkowski vote no on moving to consider the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett
https://twitter.com/LisaDNews/status/1319692263728054272BREAKING: GOP Sens. Collins and Murkowski vote no on moving to consider the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett for SCOTUS.
This was something they forecast when the opening happened, now they've followed through.
GOP still has enough votes to proceed however.

I'm being more pessimistic on the split for no party affiliation voters than we saw in 2016. Even with that slightly pessimistic viewpoint, Dems could conceivably have a sizeable lead as of this morning of ~381,000 votes...so far. That's a lot of ground to makeup from in-person voting from republicans
In 2016, a total of 9,618,915 were cast. 2,758,617 were vote-by-mail and election day numbers were close to that at 2,959,085. Total early in-person votes in 2016 were 3,876,753 and about 24k provisional ballots.
FL has already blown past vote-by-mail returns this year with about 3,200,000
SOOO...ESTIMATED current split between Biden/trump is 52.9/44.0 (ignoring other candidates)!

Wow. fox news national correspondent confirms hunter "scandal" is NOTHING!
https://twitter.com/JacquiHeinrich/status/1319508531423436803I completed searching all of Tony Bobulinski’s emails. They establish:
• the “Chairman” is China.
• NO ROLE for Joe Biden in emails/docs
• Tony Bobulinski states himself there are NO OTHER MEMBERS besides Hunter Biden, Jim Biden, Rob Walker, James Gillar, and Bobulinski
