Aside from Warnock and possibly Ossoff taking Senate seats, Merrick Garland is going to be appointed Attorney General. The arc of justice bends slowly sometimes….....
(And yes, Jeruba, I’m gloating.)

I don’t know how does pure evil feel?
He’s probably talking to other politicians about what can be done to save the ship. He is probably not ready to give up just yet. Even if the evidence is clear and the ballots are counted, I’ll bet the Republicans are sitting around the table (figuratively) and trying to figure out their next move.
Fear. Because a mob of drumpf supporters has stormed the capitol.
I’m watching them on the news. I wouldn’t be surprised if it ends up with people getting punched or gunfire.
The Washington Post reports McConnell’s speech:
“But, my colleagues, nothing before us proves illegality anywhere near the massive scale — the massive scale — that would have tipped the entire election,” he said. “Nor can public doubt alone justify a radical break when the doubt itself was incited without any evidence.”
“Voters, the courts, and the states have all spoken — they’ve all spoken,” McConnell said. “If we overrule them, it would damage our republic forever.”
Crocodile tears.
Unless @Yellowdog believes him, he may as well save his breath.
@janbb, I’d love to, but I think it’s too soon.
@Jeruba The hypocrite is now trying to save his skin. What a wascally wabbit!
i would think that he is scared for his life at the moment.
Sedition prompted by Trumps encouragement.
Above all Vice President Pence has to NOT pardon Trump should Trump be removed through force.
Through all of this Trump still knocks down Pence.
What a total embarrassment for the people of the U.S. and I hope all are enlightened to realize the error in voting Trump as there leader.
Let hope that NO one gets killed or injured badly in this protest.
McConnell created a rampaging monster that he cannot control. He deserves a torchlight parade.
With pitchforks.
Woman shot and in critical condition. Blood is on the hands of all those that encouraged demonstrations.
It is time for Trump to be removed from office and the National Guard to secure the Capitol.
But-but-but @janbb according the Fright wing Trump is the great uniter ,you saying he isn’t?
I am shocked! I mean look at how much our local fright wingers have praised him, in their eyes he can do no wrong, and is a pure as the driven snow.
You mean to say they are wrong? I thought fright wingers are never wrong.
Look at all the logic they use and all the slanted facts they post,they can’t be wrong.
I would guess he feels late to the party. You can bet that he NOW wishes he had forked over that 2 grand.
@SQUEEKY2, I thought you knew we don’t all think alike. What’s this, then? Whom are you trying to provoke?
I too am confused. Woke me right up.
Your response to Squeeky made it sound like you’re a trump supporter.
LOL, @Jeruba is a Trump supporter??? LOL. You must not have been paying attention the last 4 years.
I took it that @SQUEEKY2 was being sarcastic.

To which Jeruba responded ”@SQUEEKY2, I thought you knew we don’t all think alike. What’s this, then? Whom are you trying to provoke?”
Who is “we”?
It sounded to me as if @SQUEEKY2 were addressing his sarcasm to @janbb by name, as if she were a Trump supporter. So when I said “we” I meant Americans, all of us, and I wondered why he was trying to provoke people who share @janbb‘s views (as I do), as if we were on the other side. I wanted him to clarify his remark.
But I was rushing to get out to a dentist appointment and couldn’t linger to see it through. “What??” was all I had time for. @Dutchess_III, I can’t believe you even asked me that.
I hope nobody who saw me write (just above) that McConnell had created a rampaging monster (Trump) thought I was a fan of rampaging monsters. I’d like to see them in a cage. Permanently.
But I still hold with Biden’s reaffirmation that we have to recognize the difference between the opposition and the enemy. Trump fails to see that difference because anyone he doesn’t own is the enemy. The rest of us can try to remember what is an extremely important distinction, which is why I said “No” to @elbanditoroso’s question on my way out.
I.knew I had to be wrong @Jeruba! A misunderstanding on my part and I apologize.
I don’t think he feels anything. He has no empathy. Maybe inconvenience? That’s about it.
I would think he feels like the American he should be.
That’s okay, @Dutchess_III. I shouldn’t have posted in haste. Normally I take the time to reconsider my posts, check my facts, and fix my typos. I also delete probably 10% of my comments before posting. If I’d slowed down a little, I could have written more clearly myself.
