I guess he is upset that Detroit county hasn't updated their numbers much in the last hour or 2?

Zona and Maine look Biden.
He needs to hold Wisconsin and Nevada and then nab Michigan ( Biden trailing by less than 1 but with lots of votes from more urban communities in play ).

Betting odds now have Biden as the favorite again. Highest favorite he has been throughout the process.

Trump was a buffoon for saying he won. He is not winning and will not likely win. I mean, I’m surprised he had as much restraint as he did all night, but he built up so much anger that he popped off.

It was good to see almost NOBODY support him saying what he said. Hardcore republicans have said it was irresponsible and incorrect.

Also, the pollsters sort of sucked again this time around it appears.

I can’t imagine the remaining adults in his camp are happy about him stripping even the patina of good faith from the inevitable litigation.

Why are a few of these swing states so much slower to count than many other states? Is it just their process?

almost NOBODY supported him saying what he said (at least in terms of public comment)

but in terms of supporting him with their vote?

Many dealing with GOP laws that don’t let them start counting until Election Day.

People vote for a lot of different reasons.

Dems still haven't learned that apparently. House and senate races being so close sort of show that as well imo.

From the sound of it, the talk of expanding the courts didn't help.

which is a better response:

something about "if republicans had any regard for good faith, the election would already be called "

or

"you say you can't imagine the remaining adultS in his camp as if there's more than one"

You think the election should already be called for Biden?

I am confused by your comment....

The election would already (rightly) be called for Biden if GOP state legislatures in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin hadn't intentionally set up this exact scenario by prohibiting early counting.

The chaos was the point. Supporting exceedingly stupid and dictatorial claims of "fraud" was the point. The bottomless bad faith was the point.

no, I don't think the election should already be called for Biden.

response one put another way: if good faith was a concern for republican voters, Trump would have been demolished in the vote count by now...yet here we are.

the issue comes from response two, put another way: I'm not sure there are any adult republicans left.

this is the kindergarten teacher distributing snacks to her kids, and one kid getting impatient and screaming JUST GIVE THEM ALL TO ME. Even the other the kids in the class would recognize it is inappropriate behavior, but not republicans.
