To be fair,maybe they haven't contracted covid, but there have been quite a few politicians of late that have broken their own covid guidelines/restrictions ,including many democrats.

Holy cow man. I went away for 2 days, come back and Trump has gone even further off the deep end. Special counsel Sidney Powell? Special advisors Michael Flynn and Steve Bannon? Seizing voting machines, calling in MARTIAL LAW! This guy is just wow. I cannot wait until stability returns to that country because there are so many decent people there that just don't buy into this. Plus it affects our country very much.

Well that'll teach you for leaving for 2 days. Stay here every hour of every day to keep the world sane.

Not quite sure what you're getting at but I probably phrased it weirdly. Anyways this situation is coming to a head soon. People around him are extremely concerned about what he's going to try to attempt.

There really should be a check on the presidential pardon, sort of like how Congress can make a bill veto-proof. Maybe there is one and I'm just ignorant of the finer points of American politics.

Democrats continue to disappoint whilst Republicans seem more in it for shock value at this point. Blocking a desperately needed payout for Americans today. Man I feel bad for so many good people down there.

Democrats favored to win both senate seats according to NY Times.

And Trumpers are losing their minds and attempting a coup tomorrow with the certification. You lost by a LOT, eff off already. They are fighting the police in the streets of DC.

I'm so sorry. According to Laura Ingraham and other alt right crackheads, it was Antifa who did it.

MAGA is a poor mans terrorist organization. They are trying to steal an election and incite a coup. Trump must be impeached and immediately arrested for sedition among many other crimes.

Thats my take as well outside of his policies. There were a few I liked. I don't really like globalization myself. But his wall and other policies seem ineffective.

He has thrown his party of terrorists under the bus and he's now claiming he wants an orderly transition. I'm pretty sure a self pardon is coming soon. I hope it doesn't hold up.
