[TheNorthWestPawsage]

Enough already! Delusional, depraved, but DEFEATED. We may have to wait until Jan 20th but 45 will be GONE. McConnell is next...

Can Facebook please change Trump's title to Former President

Or maybe, raving, orange lunatic?

I’m cringing more with every day. Poor USA.

@SonjaHeniesTutu it was me - I picked my name during a black period... but yes! We need a Vimes; or perhaps just a Luggage 🤞

Appropriately enough, given the thread title.

Trump likes to paint himself as a victim. I have no words for how odious he is.

A chink in his armour of denial?
Trump implies an administration other than his...

“There will never be anything like this. I just hope they keep it. I hope they have the courage to keep because the powerful drug lobby, big pharma, is putting pressure on people like you would not believe,” Trump said, discussing the most favored nations rule he is finalizing, which would allow the federal government and states to buy prescription drugs from other countries at often lower prices.

from CNN dateline 4.49 EST.....GA is certified.

CNN 2 minutes ago from their 'live update' thread;

Georgia governor says he'll certify state's electoral votes for Biden
From CNN's Jason Morris and Marshall Cohen
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp said Friday that will “follow the law” and sign the paperwork that officially grants Georgia’s 16 electoral electors to President-elect Joe Biden.

State law requires Kemp, a Republican, to award Georgia’s electoral votes to the certified winner of the presidential election. A federal judge on Thursday rejected a last-ditch lawsuit that tried to block certification, and Biden’s victory was certified Friday afternoon by Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.

News: Don Jr, the president’s son, has tested positive for coronavirus. He escaped the virus when people around him got infected, including his girlfriend Kimberly, but now has it, per multiple sources.

I just saw that newsflash North. I admit I gave a guffaw.

Well hello there! Lovely to find you all on a new thread :)
I know we’ve just mentioned trump jr is positive but so is Rudy’s son and we know Rudy was exposed to him. Want to bet that sweating his hair dye off was due to him running a covid fever?

Yes yes, would love a Vimes

Hell, if we have to have someone orange running the US, let's go with the Librarian!

Ook!

He seems to be spending every waking hour on Twitter. So busy shouting about how he’s still going to be president in January because of election fraud, he has forgotten he is still president right now and should be dealing with COVID-19. The numbers grow ever higher yet he’s throwing a toddler-tantie.

I thought it was just Rudi's pants that were on fire but yes maybe he was running an actual fever

Rudy quite keen on exposing himself

So Shirkey and Chatfield not caving?

Kinda sounds like it @tobee . Although time will tell.

www.cnn.com/2020/11/20/politics/michigan-house-speaker-will-meet-trump/index.html

"As legislative leaders, we will follow the law and follow the normal process regarding Michigan's electors, just as we have said throughout this election," Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey and Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield said in a joint statement after the meeting.

"Michigan's certification process should be a deliberate process free from threats and intimidation," the lawmakers continued in their statement. "Allegations of fraudulent behavior should be taken seriously, thoroughly investigated, and if proven, prosecuted to the full extent of the law. And the candidates who win the most votes win elections and Michigan's electoral votes. These are simple truths that should provide confidence in our elections."

Although it looks like he's now moving on to try the same shit on PA. From the same article:

"There are also discussions currently underway with Trump about inviting Republican state legislators from Pennsylvania to the White House, two sources told CNN.

It's not clear if those invitations have been extended yet, but Trump has expressed interest in doing so as he tries to insert himself into the vote certification process. The deadline for counties in Pennsylvania to certify their totals is Monday."

Tee Hee Hee. I'll bet this is frosting Scrotus' balls.

Per CNN live update thread:

"Twitter said it will hand control of the @POTUS account on Inauguration Day to the new Biden administration, the company said Friday.

The @POTUS account is the official account of the president of the United States and is separate to the @realDonaldTrump account Trump uses to tweet.

This will also apply to about a dozen White House accounts, including the @FLOTUS and @PressSec accounts, Nick Pacilio, a Twitter spokesperson told CNN Friday."

From the same Live Update CNN thread:

Georgia governor certifies state's electoral votes for Biden
From CNN's Jason Morris and Marshall Cohen
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Friday signed the paperwork that officially grants the state's 16 electoral votes to President-elect Joe Biden.

“The Governor has formalized the certification delivered to our office by the Secretary of State – as is required by state law,” Kemp spokesperson Tate Mitchell told CNN in an email.

I was watching CNN earlier but it kept glitching on my cast to tv. I used to be addicted to 24hr U.K. news channels but haven't been able to bear it since the December election. Can watch CNN and hardly any Boris Johnson. Excellent!

According to CBC (Candian Broadcasting Corporation)

"After meeting Trump, Michigan Republicans say there are no new details that change state's vote"

It is interesting to me Fox is breaking ranks, especially when it is clear their customers are going to go elsewhere for news.

There'll be a commercial reason for this no doubt. But I wonder what they're betting on.
