We'll see, but I don't have high hopes. i think the next 4 years will be bad regardless.

Hoping in the Trump economy that I can sell the house that I couldn't in the Biden economy.

Nov 6 (Reuters) - U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver a speech conceding defeat in the presidential election to Donald Trump at 6 p.m. (2300 GMT) on Wednesday, two sources told Reuters.
Weird to wait for prime time...but could be a good idea.

she's probably super hungover

I should probably stop trying to predict the future.

btw, how about those polls, huh?

I don't know why everyone's down on the polls. They were spot on. Well within the margin of error.

yeah close enough. Silver is going to take heat for the next 4 years for giving Kamala a teeny tiny edge on the very last day.

538 was 53/47 Trump for weeks. He might have gave me hope, but he hadn't been giving Harris the edge for quite a while.

Guys, even if the odds are 70/30, 80/20, 90/10, they are still only odds

They should never tell us the odds.

No real surprise there, that was inevitable.

Biden should wait until Trump prints all of his “47th President” letterhead and then resign, so that he’s the 48th.

That would be a nice consolation prize for Harris too

No way Trump is president on January 20, 2029. He might die before then or do something serious enough to be impeached but I think the 25th amendment coming into play is more likely. He’s already mentally declining.
And we won’t have to worry about the debt, deficit, or debt ceiling the next four years. Those only a concern when Dems hold the Oval Office.
But the idea of today’s GOP holding the executive branch, both legislative houses, and the judicial branch…yikes.
