He’s right about the going nowhere part

Also, has kind of a "Max Headroom" orientation in the room there with his giant head, the ill-placed screen TV, the strangely lit 3-corner off his right shoulder, and then the overall fact he looks like the character result of a mentally retarded video game programmer.

Wait - did he say 15k military votes? I’d love to know how they broke in November. That could fuck Ossoff up in a narrow race. They blew by that stat after Jonesing on 3k votes here and there.

That's just the number of ballots they sent out.  One of the local GA election guys said the number actually returned isn't usually enough to significantly change the election.  I couldn't find 2020 data, but in the 2016 presidential election, they were returned at a 69% rate.

With Trumps recent history of calling soldiers losers and ignoring Russian bounties on troops, I can't image him gaining much in the batch returned.

Yeah, if they return 10K and it goes 60/40 for Perdue, that's only 2K more votes.  DeKalb County delayed votes will probably gain Ossoff 8K or so.

What's his tweet per day record? Since he's supposed to speak at the rally I'm thinking he's not going to tweet as much, but this afternoon may get ragey. I seem to recall him slightly threatening people during the Impeachment (over twitter). It's so normalized now, many don't even notice that he's doing the same thing now with Pence and others.

The sad part is that he's not going away after January 20th. Matter of fact, I think his shit is going to be worse.

His bark will increase, but I think his bite will diminish considering he doesn't have control of the nuclear arsenal, among other levers of power.

Yeah but it's kind of like getting a divorce. The crazy is still there but you don't have to listen to it anymore.

Florida's homestead and exemption laws are quite similar to Texas.  It's not enough to keep him living in any kind of style, let alone that faux Versailles shit he loves.  Unilimited homestead value, IRAs, 401k, and a small amount of personal property (less than Texas by a lot).  And if he files for bankruptcy, fugeddaboutit.

Tracing assets will be difficult.  Theres already information out there about dozens of LLCs that shield various assets.

And, state homestead and other exemptions don't guard against tax liens, or other federal government liens, as for criminal fines or restitution.

 

Yeah.  That's why Bilizerian's dad eventually gave up his citizenship and moved to St. Kitts on a buy a passport scheme.  Once the kids had laundered his money through the late aughts poker bubble, he bounced.  Again:  Trup ain't that smart and his kids damn sure aren't.

Yes, of course the argument is that every non-white non-male is better than every white man. Nice job!

Let's try to think critically here.  For example, let's say that we toss all white men out of power and we are freed from Louie Gohmert.  Which is more likely? 

1.  Wendy Davis moves to TX-01 and gets elected

2.  The Texas GOP finds a non-white male that is just as just as repugnant as Gohmert and gets that person elected because it's east TX and the person has (R) by their name.  

The problem is that assholes like Gohmert are what a huge portion of our electorate wants and, given the way the districts are drawn right now, they're going to get them regardless of what race/sex they are.  East Texas is still going to do East Texas things.  Throwing yourself prostrate on the ground and shrieking "OMG WHITE MEN ARE SOOOOOOOO BAD I AM SOOOOOOO SORRY!" isn't going to solve that problem and doesn't accomplish anything other than looking woke on Surly.  

Edited to add:  The House election in the (R) leaning North Dallas-area district I live in featured two female candidates.  One ran on a pretty progressive platform.  The other one ran on a platform of "My opponent is a socialist who wants to put all police officers in front of a firing squad and then march you down to the county courthouse at gunpoint and force you to gay marry Obama."  Guess who won!
