That, we are told, is what Biden will say in his speech tonight — at 7:30 ET, quoted in "Electoral College confirms Biden is President-elect': Joe to address the nation tonight to say 'democracy prevailed' in rebuke to Trump's refusal to give up doomed fight" (Daily Mail).
So the thing happened just now — the thing we call the Electoral College.

Trump's only down 15. It ain't over yet
Why do you care?
He has no clue how insulting that is to people who believe that he cheated his way to getting a total
DOJ just sent out 24 additional CRIMINAL subpoenas on Humper Biden
...the "Big Guy" is his biz associate
Whatever.
True, he has no clue, since so preposterous.
Joe who?
And what gahrie said.
Maybe he’s being sarcastic. Yeah, that’s the ticket.

It's probably very insulting for a transgendered woman to be told she's really a man, too. So what? It's true! Why should anybody care that a straight forward statement of fact might hurt the feelings of people who believe crazy things. Facts don't care about feelings. Even conservative, Trump-supporting feelings.

In America, politicians don’t take power
The latest addition to a long list of things Dems do that they accuse their opponents of doing.
A satisfyingly incisive and blunt takedown of Jolt-less Joe and the Democrats of present and recent vintage.
The college of electors will bestow the presidency upon Joe and bestow an honorific title upon Dr Jill to rival that of Idi Amin.

Gosh, this will be fun! Thanks, libs, for showing us the way!
My issue is the votes that should not have been counted.....this message is so insulting. This man will never be legitimate under these circumstances. Doesn’t the soul of America demand legitimacy of one person, one vote?
Howard and the lefties are exulting now that the steal has worked.
Congratulations folks. Maybe time to begin your Mandarin class ?

When you have to cheat to win something any thing you say comes off as a mental disability.
The short bus mental disability.
Asshole.
hey? help me out; i lost track of which fraud step we're up to?
Are we still in the:
Sure, there was a LOT of fraud; but it would hurt the country to do anything about it.
Step?
Or,
have we Already got to the:
DAMN RIGHT, We committed Fraud, and there's NOTHING you can do about it!
Step?
Wake me up, when we get to the:
HA HA! HA HA! We Committed Fraud! Nah Nah Nah Nah Nah Nah!
step
That, we are told, is what Biden will say in his speech tonight...
Notice, the baseline assumption is that Biden, the president-elect, probably no longer speaks for himself.
"In this battle for the soul of America, democracy prevailed. The flame of democracy was lit in this nation a lot time ago. And we now know that nothing - not even a pandemic - or an abuse of power - can extinguish that flame."
"What beats deep in the hearts of the American people is this: Democracy. The right to be heard. To have your vote counted. To choose the leaders of this nation. To govern ourselves. In America, politicians don’t take power — the people grant it to them."
Such overheated rhetoric in a corrupt nation in its "Fall of the Roman Empire" stage of existence; it is to retch!
Biden is just trying to present that he is the inevitable president. But if this Antrim County, MI report is accurate, the results are wrong in the states that used Dominion voting software.
A Trump slate of Electoral Colleges were chosen in MI, WI, AZ, PA and GA. The Congress gets to decide which slate of voters get accepted.
This thing is FAR from over.
No justice, no peace.
I thought I was a pessimist but my view is rosy compared to Cook's outlook.
This will be the apogee of the Biden presidency, if proof or foreign interference or January 6 do not bring unpleasant surprises.
From here there is only inevitable humiliation and destruction for the entire Biden family, including the curious Jill, accessory to it all.
>>A satisfyingly incisive and blunt takedown of Jolt-less Joe and the Democrats of present and recent vintage.
I read that. The author laments that Joe will accomplish nothing of any note.
I would consider that a best-case scenario.

You didn't read it carefully enough. He's fearful of what Biden mightdo, given his long-standing stated policy preferences.
Joe Biden and his vile disgusting corrupt money whore family... can rot.

it's like when voldemort put a puppet in the ministry of magic,
When do impeachment proceedings start?
Democracy doesn't beat in my heart. What fool would embrace Democracy? The men who thought out the Constitution were brilliant. It lasted a long time. We are now released from the Supreme Law of the Land, scores will be settled. The US Constitution was about Human Nature.
Human Nature is coming now, unleashed.
Can Biden pardon himself?
Fuck Joe Biden and the horse he rode in on. I will resist him, in my individual and small way, for the entirety of his term in office, be that 30 days or four years. Should he leave earlier than 2025, I will resist his successor.
Dave Begley - are you saying Republicans in congress could successfully give a majority of electoral votes to trump? Without the support of any dems? Could you please walk me through how that would work?
I'd watch Dementia Joe deliver these stirring words, but I'll be too busy throwing up. Trunalimunumaprzure forever!
Huh, a couple of years ago the DemocRATS were ready to pack the Electoral College in.
Bunch a crapweasels!

What tripe.
Just a note that my lack of any commitment to this regime is rooted in the Dems refusal to allow me the peaceful enjoyment of the 2016 election result. Prepare for my incoming tat....
The Electoral College is now a trusted system? Let's all have a cookie.
Propaganda alert. I’ll never accept this stolen election.
Bullshit. Fraud. Cheat. Shame.
More meaningless puke from the putz. Thanks for the warning. I feel so much healthier being out of the breaking news loop and able to avoid the constant poison of the newsertainmentpolitics business.
The Electoral College is like those incredible ice cream sundaes that used to be on display in a big glass case at the fantastic Jahn's Ice Cream parlor on Rt. 4 in north Jersey. Althouse was probably there at some point in her adolescence, amirite? These incredible concoctions in silver servers with rivers of whipped cream swirling all over....
It needs rejuvenation. Like those fake ice creams. We need a year when the election and the electoral college go back to the state legislatures. When it ends up in Congress. It cannot be a dead demonstration behind glass; it must live again. We need to feel its purpose and its value. Otherwise, why keep it around? Run the arithmetic and stop wasting time.
We need the human dimension of our institutions to assert itself. Just once, since 1876. We can handle it.
Biden has an understated sense of humor.
“To have your vote counted-along with the vote of someone who doesn’t exist to cancel it out”
What a glorious time to be alive!
“To have your vote counted. Scroll to the next line.”

They so horney for loving approval of people.
So horney! Can’t wait to please!
Tommy Duncan (5:01pm):
When I read your "Holy Rings of Betazed", I didn't realize at first that the last word is pronounced 'Bay-tuh-Zed'. (It's been a LONG time since I saw any episode of that show.) I read it as 'Beh-TAYZD', participle of the verb 'to betaze', i.e. 'having been hit with/by a tazer' (taser? whatever). Of course it's Joe, not Jill, who comes across as thoroughly betazed - she's just kind of stupid and nasty.
"He has no clue how insulting that is to people who believe that he cheated his way to getting a total"
Biden may not, but you can be sure the people who wrote it do.
Do you wear a mask against catching a cold? Do you wear a mask? Do you accept that your Mom can have no contact with you because COVID!!!
Let me tell a story. The year was 1979. Mom and Dad had 4 kids. We were located all over the planet. Hadn't seen each other for a few years, because of the 'all over the planet' thing. But, for some reason we all came together for Christmas in 1979. I have a picture!
Oh, man, all of the children Mom birthed gathered together and hugged her, and kissed her.
Mom died 3 months later. She was 54. Her name was Elaine.
You monsters want to keep 80 yr old women from her family because of COVID?

Can Biden pardon himself?
No, but he could pardon Hunter. Which should lead to his immediate impeachment, but the Democrats control the House, so he could probably get away with it.
Prediction: Biden takes oath of office in Jan. He pardons Hunter in Feb, and resigns in March.
@Gahrie
I was really just being a rhetorical smart ass. A month ago the question everyone was asking was whether Trump could pardon himself, hell IIRC, our hostess posted a discussion about it. But you prediction seems very plausible.
Well, the Democrats never accepted Trump's election.

Being a Trump voter and losing is infinitely better than being a Biden voter and winning.
Trump's term may be over. I can be proud of helping to bring his leadership to this nation, and I'm proud of how we played the game, and how we won. It was an exceptional presidency, with real things getting done in big ways, and through good and honest methods in the face of unhinged, unAmerican, and extralegal opposition.
I would rather lose and put up with the classless barbs from Democrats than have to explain why I voted for Biden/Harris and all that entails. I would hate to be defending that stupidity over the next four years. I didn't even support it, and I'm ashamed of it. I just need to remember that I didn't vote for this, and that you did.
I didn't even support it, and I'm ashamed of it. I just need to remember that I didn't vote for this, and that you did.
Yup. This utterly nails my attitude as well. Not a damn thing we can really do now, but we did what we could, and we can hold our heads up high.
His son is either (a) going to jail or (b) be the catalyst for his father's impeachment and his father's deserved fall into Jefferson Davis/Benedict Arnold level disgrace or (c) Trump will not be inaugurated.
If you are a father, you know Biden wants (c).
But he has been a bad, selfish man for many years, and he is not likely to get what he wants.
Boys, you got to get over the rules you grew up with. You got to let that go. God's rules are eternal, but women's rules have got us in a perilous place. Don't get me wrong...women are soft, feeling beings. They are the Yin. They fit into the Yang.
There is way too much Yin, and American women don't like it. They push it, but they expect the Yang to push back. The Yang has to put this thing back in balance.
Ann...Are you diggin' this fracture of America's tectonic plates? You came here to be Yin.
But who cares what Biden wants? He is old, off the charts selfish, probably has raped at least one woman (that is what the polls say), he supports, as many bad people do, late term abortion, and when he looks in the mirror he sees that selfish old face, every time. It is almost unbearably sad, actually. I like the little old creep though for at least one thing ---- as cold as ice his blood might be, but he kept the even nastier Bernie and the even nastier than Bernie woman, that shrill cold-hearted woman who lied about being an Indian, from being president. I mean who lies about Indian heritage?
And yes, there was a little joke at (c). If you didn't get it, too bad,
We are a Constitutional Republic.
The Electoral College is anti-democratic by design.
The people writing/saying the dreck Althouse quoted sound profoundly ignorant.
If you have to cheat to win, you're still a loser.
Why does anyone waste time listening to any politician.
Use that time to watch what he/she does, not what is said.
I’m a partisan, I admit it, and I was loathe to give Clinton or Obama a chance. But I didn’t despise either of them on a visceral level. Biden I do. He’s everything I hate in a man: old boys networky, cocky, mean, a blowhard, and yet he gets ahead. And dumb. Dumb but able to mask that fact to many. He’s George W. Bush without the charm. I suppose he has some good traits but these others obscure them for me.
I guess I’ll survive though. Just hope the populist uprising does as well.
Apparently we aren't a nation of racists. Democracy beats deep within us. And we have proof. Joe Biden is the proof of concept. Hunter's Dad. If you voted for him, you love democracy. (And if you voted for him twice, you love democracy twice as much as some lazy person who just voted once.) But I stopped listening to him two minutes in. I used to listen to Trump, and be racing to keep up with where he was going. I listen to Biden and it's like racing a snail - go have lunch, do some chores, come back, catch up and pass Joe Snail again. Yeah, Joe Snail, he'll be re-arranging cliches in new patterns, concentrating like some three-year-old learning a new eight piece puzzle.
Now, what will happen to us in January? You know how you sit in a train or bus and suddenly the station moves backward. Something's going forward but you see it as something, impossibly, going backward. I think we'll see something that could be interpreted as the country "going back." But we can't go back - so what is it that will be going forward?
Democrats have always cheated, but at least they had the good manners to be discrete. Democrats won't even do that anymore. This year they went all out, discretion be damned.
I'm ok with that. No rules. The rules always felt itchy to me, but I agreed to them.
I like this new game. Opportunities abound. No rules.
2/3 of the eligible voters did not vote for Dr. Biden's husband.

"What beats deep in the hearts of the American people is this: Democracy. The right to be heard.
It is more than ironic that there is a substantial contingent on the Democrat side of the aisle that want to "cancel" the voices of those who disagree with them. They want to shut up those who don't follow the woke narrative of the day.
Or the Tech moguls at Google and other places who disappear postings that disagree with the Democrat narrative, or who "guide" searches away from what doesn't fit the Democrat narrative of the day. Use Google and DuckDuckGo for this string: "mika brzezinski hates republicans." Rather different results.
More specifically, the media and tech moguls who suppressed news about Biden family corruption before the election, but now let it appear. Fake news before the election, they told us, but a month after the election, it's news.
RJ, new rules.
I put another way, Hercules, and I use their own words. "Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules."
There are no rules now in the greater society. It's a good thing. These things have to happen every coupla hundred years. Human nature. No lying about it or cheating. Progressives relied on Christians to play the chump. FemChurches abetted that thinking.
Jesus don't play dat. Let's get this party started.
I've had an epiphany that it's completely OK to key a car with an opposition bumper sticker on it. Alot of Bentleys, Porsches, Teslas, and exotic Italian cars around here, this is going to be fun. Within two weeks, I hope to work myself up to actually bashIng the owners of said cars in the back of the head with a brick or a bike lock.
Although I'm thinking that a tire iron is the best thing to use. I was changing a tire, and was attacked by that asshole, plausible deniability is what I think it's called.
or an abuse of power
He unwittingly just showed us his hand
Muttering Joe Biden, in an effort to the HEALING begin, supposedly muttered the following from his teleprompter:
"In this battle for the soul of America, democracy prevailed. The flame of democracy was lit in this nation a lot time ago. And we now know that nothing - not even a pandemic - or an abuse of power - can extinguish that flame."
Hope that's still your view in a few months, when Hunter's scandal is so great and has you in its vortex that you have to "spend more time with family." For now, Old Catholic Joe is PEOTUS. Let Freedom Ring.
Rt1Rebel. Thank you for self identifying as a troll.
I haven’t always been a troll, I’ve been around here for well over ten years in serious capacity. I do admit to such behavior recently to give Chuck, Inga, Readering, Howard, et al a taste of it though.
Bahahhahhahhahahhaha!! And CHINA!!! AND UKRAINE!!!! AND IRAN!!! Yay BIDEN!!!! Woo WHooooo!!! Globalism baby.....Socialism baby!!! We done did it....we are Venezuela now!!!
Nothing says 'the flame of democracy' more than mail-in voting.

Exactly. It's what the wife/I have been trying to teach our daughters from the get go. Ignore words, watch deeds. Couldn't be simpler. Cheers.
Ah, they DID put in an alternate slate of electors. Good job on that aspect. With the incredible Dominion error rates, this election has crossed over into farce territory. Trump and Pence need to do something Lincolnesque -- arrest all Democrat officials and suspend habeas corpus. Then maybe there will be a halfway chance to see just how badly the DNC attempted to defraud the nation.
He's a SOOOOOUULLL MAN!

I'm retiring at the end of next month. It won't be hard to live comfortably (debt free) in the 12% tax bracket. That will cut the taxes I pay each year by a very large amount. Why continue working to earn money I don't need and pay taxes to a corrupt government when there is an alternative? As for Biden, I intend to treat him with the same courtesy and respect Democrats have shown to Trump for the past 4 years - none. Over the next four years, three of my grandchildren will come of age to join the military. I intend to actively discourage them should want to enlist. In a banana republic, the military is the protector of the government, not the people.
Joe Biden will never be my president.
Getting back this important sub-topic...
"incredible ice cream sundaes that used to be on display in a big glass case at the fantastic Jahn's Ice Cream parlor on Rt. 4 in north Jersey"
Jahn's has its own Wikipedia page, although it turns out there is only one store left, in Jackson Heights, Queens.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jahn%27s
Several links at the bottom for more on this story of a teenage immigrant who made himself into the Emperor of Ice Cream.
Democracy beats deeply in the hearts of Americans? Maybe; but it used to be liberty. Then again: "It's not about your rights, man."
Read that as "...the flambe of democracy."
Basically, Biden is saying that behaving as the Democrats did for the last four years was wrong. And basically he is saying that all the critical race courses are wrong, Americans are and always have good decent people holding up the torch of democracy, a light to the world. He would be cancelled if he said the same on any editorial page or on any campus. We should quote him in refuting critical race theorists or in defending free speech. Hold them to their rules.
2020 will become known as the year America lost its soul -- at least rhetorically. Did "the soul of America" become a cliche in record time or was it already half-worn out -- something you'd expect to hear in a truck commercial more than anywhere else? I'd have thought Biden would drop the phrase after the Jon Meacham thing, but of course, Team Biden has no shame.

Yep. If only because if your a Biden voter people are going to ask ,"Are you special too?" And not special in a good way. It makes the comments by the usual suspects funny as hell.
Rt1Rebel. Sorry I missed the sarc. Had a few cocktails. Planning the path forward. Sorry. Your response to me was of a measured man.
Larry J, what you said about young men not joining the military is important.
The first thing that came to my mind was our Churches who spend so much time on the Great Commission to Foreign Missions, like our Military's foreign interventions.
Our house is burning down. Our Country is a Mission Field. How perfect is that? 13 Christian Colonies joined in a union. They refused to join until the Constitution made clear that 'Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of Religion'.
How universally far thinking was that?
Here's the thing: Jesus said, "None come to me, lest He who sent me, draws him."
It's not a happy, happy, joy, joy, love, love thing. Those Churches close down, when Caesar orders.
In this life, if you get drawn, it is a thundering burden. A Cross to bear.
We are all born into this world, where we try to figure out where we are. What are we? What are we doing here?
The good news is, if you are drawn, you don't have to wear a mask. Heh.
