Help this moron out. How/why wouldn't PA matter?
As of last night. Biden had to win 2 of 4 between Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia and Pennsylvania. Trump had to win 3 of 4. Well, Biden looking like he will win Michigan and Wisconsin so everything else is irrelevant.

If dems run Pete or Amy this woulda been a landslide. Instead they ran the most unlikable and unrelatable candidate from the primaries again. Primaries rigged. Dems say system is broken and then run the guy with 40 years building the system. Odd. Anyway, trumps such a poor option that it might work anyway, but legal battle looming.

I just looked and it appears your logic makes sense. My logic was that every state kind matters - to some degree but I am now comprehending that it doesn't matter in terms of it helping Trump win - if he doesn't win.

how much of a legal battle really looms?

if there's otherwise a clear vote count, does the legal battle hinge on some after-the-fact throwing out of votes on technicalities?

You want to see America burning? You will if the SCOTUS throws out legit votes.

They won't throw out legit votes. Just give the fear mongering a break.

Agree completely.

Biden was doing terrible in the first few state primaries until the dem machine started forcefeeding the public that he was the only candidate who could beat trump (which was an obvious lie)...by the time the primaries came around in many states the other better dem candidates had already gotten on bended knee to Biden (some of that i am sure is due to financial costs or running a campaign).

OK Lobster Jr. :D

a) YOU have no idea what would have happened if the dems ran Pete or Amy. Well, obviously you have an idea but that's really all you have.
b) PLENTY of DEMS like and relate to Joe. At least 69 million plus people like and relate to him - more than they do Trump. Or perhaps some/many/most don't but they just prefer him to be their President.
c) Primaries rigged? You might be on to something but I think YOU would have a difficult time proving it. Is the Presidential election rigged to? I admit I can't say for sure that it's not. I would think if it was, the incumbent's people would have an easier time rigging it than the challenger. Then again, what foreign influence might go in to rigging it too? Shit, there could be someone such as you who could be rigging it. Hmmm.
d) Not too sure what Dems say, "the system is broken". What "system" are YOU referring to? The one we have had under Trump or the one before it?
e) I agree 100% that Trump is/was a "poor option" yet 67 million plus preferred the option.
f) I have to ASSUME you are right about a legal battle looming. The question is what will be decided and then what will be the reaction. Even though a "legal battle" might be justified and the best way to resolve the results, I think more people will "act out" against the "legal battle" then there would be if there wasn't a "legal battle".

The whole progressive movement is based on the system being broken. If trump won would the system be broken?

Are people rioting because the system isnt broken? 69 million people dont relate to Joe. 69 million people hate trump. This again is an election of least worst option. We need better options. We need a 3rd party.

and it seems cynical to phrase it as the progressive movement being based on the system being broken.

a more optimistic wording could say the progressive movement is about progress.
