    It's going to take a long time for me to get over the rallies. Trump has thousands of supporters rallying, whether he is present or not. Biden can't hire even small crowds of 12, 18, or 24. But, he wins the election? Something smells . . .

    Keep in mind the effects of their different approaches to the coronavirus... We're looking at one guy who exhorted his followers to rally together in large numbers in-person, and another guy who intentionally limits the size of his rallies while telling his followers to stay home to avoid spreading a virus; it doesn't seem logical to me to draw any conclusions about their popularity based on the size of the resulting crowds.

    And, those five battleground states that all stopped counting simultaneously on election night

    They actually didn't stop counting; one county had to pause briefly because a pipe burst, others stopped when they finished counting in-person votes but were still counting the incoming absentee ballots:

    only to see Biden counts increase VERY SHARPLY immediately when recounting began.

    Biden's votes would have increased at a faster pace when absentee/mail-in ballots were counted because a larger proportion of mail-in voters tend to be Democrat, and also because Trump had been actively telling his followers to vote-in person rather than mail.

    Let's wait until the Electoral College has it's say, THEN we can talk about a President Elect.

    That's going to be interesting; I assume that we'll see the same reaction from it as in 2016, where the electors simply stated that it was their duty to vote in accordance with their state's residents. Hopefully that won't happen; it wouldn't surprise me if we saw ANTIFA riots from Hell there if the electors decided to override the voters.
