    But it was offset by 15.5M more votes for Biden over Clinton.  Biden's electoral college victory margin was even wider than Trump's.  I honestly don't think Democrats and independents are going to sit this one out for some sort of 2016-ish apathy wave.

    The biggest change was the "other" vote going from 7.7M to 2.9M.  Lots of people woke up and realized that a vote for anyone other than the D was a de facto vote for Dotard. They are not likely to revert.

  2. I've been hearing a bit lately about the "No Labels" Party, which I know almost nothing about.  The group claims not to be more of a movement than a party, and they have "members" in Congress from both parties, e.g. Henry Cuellar, Joe Manchin, Susan Collins, Krysten Sinema, etc.  But they seem to have an aggressive strategy for 2024, which they call their "Insurance Policy": 

    "In poll after poll, two-thirds of American voters are unhappy with the choices they are likely to have in the 2024 presidential election. No Labels is working to give the American voters a better choice should they want it. We have a strategy to get on 50 state ballots and the District of Columbia in time to potentially offer our ballot line to an independent Unity Ticket in 2024 if that’s what the American people want. " https://www.action.nolabels.org/articles/9-labels-2024-insurance-project-faq

    To date, they have been recognized in Colorado, Alaska, Utah, Oregon, North Carolina, and Arizona, and they claim that they are on track to be on the presidential ballot in 28 states by the end of the year.  https://2024.nolabels.org/

    While the stated goals seem laudable, I am afraid of anything that alters the normal election structure in 2024.  I still have nightmares about the Ralph Nader effect in 2000.  I would expect this to do nothing but drain off votes from Biden in the true battleground states.  Am I right to secure my seat on the ledge now?

  3. We've been parking in the lot north of the Drum, but that's gone this year because of construction and I ended up in the Brazos garage. Can anyone share ideas for tailgating in that area?

    The election is a year and a half away. Get fucked Dotard. 

    I don't know. If that's not enough time to confirm a SCOTUS appointee, how can it possibly be long enough for getting a case like this to trial?

    I have done a little reading on CIPA procedures.

    Some options are:

    • declassify the document and show it to the jury straight up
    • redact the document
    • prepare agreed-upon summaries

    And some of this even may apply to defense attorneys depending on the clearance they get and the level of the documents.

    If the magats are right, and Biden has completely corrupted every facet of government to suit his evil purposes, the dotard's lawyers would never get security clearance.

    Fleeing isnt the worst result. Maybe he could be tried in absentia, maybe not. But he wouldn’t be here to draw crowds and maintain his support levels and energy. And maybe there’s a small part of his following that would see it as cowardice and be less motivated to vote for him. 

    I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure a criminal defendant can't be tried in absentia.
