We knew we were subject to a red mirage. Biden is going to win.

The bottom line is that we live in a country where a sizable minority of voters believe JFK Jr is still alive and secretly helping Donald Trump defeat Democrat blood drinking pedo cannibals who hide children in the basement of the Alamo. An even larger minority know that 240000 are dead on 45s watch but don’t care because stock markets.

Did you think this shit would just disappear? The bottom line is that Biden isn’t going to get a landslide, but it’s likely we get a decent win in the EC and the popular vote.
