Trump’s Reaction?

Donald Trump issued a statement, refusing to concede the election to Joe Biden. Here’s just the first sentence, so you don’t have to read the whole thing: “We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: they don’t […]

Kamala Harris Makes History

Joe Biden made (dubious) history today as the oldest person (77 years) to ever be elected president. But Kamala Harris made even more history. She is the first woman and first person of color to be elected vice president. Harris was born to a Jamaican father and an Indian mother, so her ancestry is not […]

Trump is a Loser!

Joe Biden has been declared the winner of the presidential election. Even by Fox News. But Trump just keeps on lying. No amount of lawsuits or lies worked. I am definitely counting the days until the inauguration.

A Sick Country

For the first time, the US just topped 100,000 new coronavirus cases in a single day. Because of this, the number of active cases is increasing faster and faster. These exploding active cases will cause health facilities to become even more overwhelmed, and has already led to the rationing of health care in the US. […]

Eerily Prescient?

Even a stopped clock is correct twice a day. Join the “This Modern World” / “Political Irony” last chance pre-election flash poll. Pick the options that you believe will be appropriate once this election is done and decided (whenever that might be) and submit them in the comments for this post. While you’re at it, […]

Will Trump Flee?

Politico has a very interesting opinion article by a retired general who believes that if Donald Trump loses the election, there is a very good chance he will flee the US to avoid humiliation and likely prosecution. Heck, as he often does, Trump himself has actually floated the idea. Here’s a teaser from the article: […]

Scary Hallowe’en!

I have to hand it to Donald Trump. He is working very hard to make Hallowe’en as scary as possible.

MAGA?

Alternative facts? How about Alternative Acronyms? In a week, I hope we can change the “Make” to “Made”.

Have a Safe Hallowe’en

How can you have a safe Hallowe’en? I’m not sure. I have decorated my house, but I’m not planning on having any trick-or-treaters as my county is strongly discouraging it. Covid-19 cases are spiking now, and having a bunch of snotty-faced kids running around in the cold night would definitely make it worse!

Show the Fuck Up

Jim Wright (of Stonekettle Station) published this on Twitter today: Physical therapy this morning, 30 minutes into a treadmill that’s kicking my ass, doctor comes in: “I see you’re a political writer. What do you think is going to happen when Trump wins? You think there’s going to be violence from these far-left liberals?” Blood […]

Eject!

I’m always amazed at how much attention the rest of the world gives to US politics, especially considering how little attention Americans pay to the rest of the world. Here’s a comic from a Portuguese artist. I especially like how a mask is being used to eject Donald Trump. If the pandemic is the reason […]
