23. I think early Wed AM

Biden has a consistently big lead in polls. If that doesn't hold, I won't believe it. Not with all of the early voting. Not with all of the new voters (those who didn't vote in 2016).

I think the fact that Trump is inciting violence is because he wants the country to be punished for his loss. He will really hope that the country does poorly.

And I suspect he'll get some idiots who have nothing else to live for, sort of like the fuck-ups that plotted to kidnap Whitmer, that will go out and do some stupid shit. But most of the Trump clown brigade, those who have families and house payments and truck payments and jobs, will grumble about Biden, will bitch and moan for the next four years, will blame the Democratic Party for every ache and pain, but they will also stay home on election night. Because even their lives with a Democratic president are better than a life lived out in prison.
