You don't really expect that, do you?

I've got a few Trump supporting buddies and family members. One fella I know has accepted the result since Thursday. I'm sure my eldest brother will not accept the result at all. I'm not keen on asking my other brother. I reckon he'll buy the conspiracy theories, despite being the more sensible brother (politically speaking).
 
Claire McCaskle just said on MSNBC that today is the lowest point for Repub Senators because they have not congratulated Biden. She’s got a point.
 
Not the Presidential Election, but what do you think the odds are that Georgia can pull it off again and elect 2 Dem Senators in January? Without those 2, there's nothing but stonewalling again.

And I still have the dream of all those mail-in ballots in AK next week going blue! A man can dream...

if they want to win the Georgia Runoff, they Trump on their side until then.
Trump will label everyone a traitor who accepts the Biden win before he does.

I think the Democratic base will be far less motivated than the Republican base for those elections. I would guess they will go Republican.

But, two months is a long time. A lot can happen between now and then.

There are those, me included, who are happy that American Democracy still shows the resilience to elect their first woman VP who isn't white. We tend to see her as an American first and don't expect her to carry the "Indian" burden.

Then there are those who saddle her with it and claim some sort of kinship. Her grand father's village, mainly upper caste Brahmin, held temple prayers and devotions to ensure her success. Indians feed vicariously on someone else's success and find ways to appropriate it.
Then, of course we have the rightwing Hindutva brigade who consider her a race traitor.

I know, right? They've replaced it with the talking head crowd.
 
It will be interesting to see what Melania does in January. She supposedly stayed in NYC for 6 months (at a large cost to the taxpayers) so that Barron wouldn't have to change schools in the middle of the school year. Will she stay in DC until June?

The media doesn’t decide who wins elections, voters do.
In multiple states the margins are razor thin with counting ongoing, several of which are headed for recounts.
