I think we’ll see multipurpose function buttons under the display, that change function programmatically depending on what the app is doing.

No I wouldn’t say touchscreens are out, I would say augmenting them with physical buttons is about to get popular.

That’s what I’m hoping for. Remember, it’s normal for Repubs to take an early lead because so many of them live in wide open spaces, where counties have such low populations they finish their vote counts very quickly. Democratic votes from larger urban areas come in later. So if there is no such “red mirage” and Kamala takes an early lead, you can start celebrating because this will mean an almost certain win for her.

I hope there’s a Very Special Hell for religious nutjobs.

No they said “don’t buy it” which traditionally means “it’s not true”.

No. He’s going to pretend to win and hope that his minions start a revolution for him, but they won’t, and as in 2020 he will lose. Then he’ll spend the rest of his pathetic-ass life in court.

The lawsuits are just props, along with declaring victory early in the evening, to make his whole stolen election story more convincing to his flock, who he expects to fight and die for him.

Seems reasonable - a corrupt public official could do their bit for him by only making a token effort to collect.

Except no. Maybe in high school sophomore reasoning, but the financial world doesn’t operate the way you’re describing. It’s totally normal for business people to owe each other money, and accruing new bills doesn’t cancel old bills. As with all non-cash transactions, these cities knew they were risking not getting paid in case he goes bankrupt, but he still owes them and they have every right to collect, even if they let him come back.

You’re free to watch that show, personally I’m sick of seeing the motherfucker. Let me know when he has his final Big Mac Attack and stops wasting oxygen.

Practice makes perfect.

That’s certainly a possibility because he’s a chronic liar. But true or not, his followers will believe him and go to bed happy. Then when the final count is over they will refuse to believe he lost because in their minds they literally saw him win. This is his con man skill in action - the one thing he’s actually good at - plant a lie in people’s minds, and because it was there first it makes a nest and fights off other ideas that try to displace it.

Absentee ballots are one reason for “red mirage” that usually gives early leads to Republican candidates. The other reason is simply that Repubs tend to live in smaller counties with fewer people in them, which means their vote counts get finished earlier than larger urban areas where Democrats tend to live. The “red mirage” is followed by a “blue shift” when the democratic votes come in.

His fans will listen, and that’s the plan. He did this in 2016 and 2020 - declare victory during the “red mirage” portion of the evening, when he’ll probably be ahead, because Republicans tend to live in low-population areas that finish their counting early because they have fewer ballots. This is a well known phenomenon on national election nights. Democratic votes tend to come in later, because more democrats live in larger urban areas that take longer to count. After Trump declares victory based on these early returns, his fans will go to bed happy. Then when all the votes are in and it turns out he lost, they’ll “know” the election was stolen because in their minds they already “saw” him win.

We will as soon as the opportunistic orange coattail riders finally realize he’s bad for them and throw him under the bus.
