Well, this is a splendid report to wake up to on a Monday-after-Thanksgiving morning!

 BREAKING NEWS:

Arizona has certified Biden's victory over Trump. First time since 1996 that a Democrat won Arizona!

Arizona defended American democracy from Donald Trump's blatant attempt to disenfranchise millions of legal voters.

Well done, Arizona!

Gallup: Biden's favorability 55%, Trump's 42%

Trump never achieved an approval rating of over 50%, even the day after his inauguration on January 20, 2017.

President-elect Joe Biden isn't even president yet, and he's already attained a 55% approval. And Trump is still wallowing in the low forties. As he has been during his presidency.

Trump trolls come here every day and denigrate President-elect Biden and ignore the fact that a majority of the American people are happy with the election results and with President-elect Biden.

But, no matter how many times we prove that Trump is a liar, a cheat, a failed businessman, a misogynist, racist, etc., the unfortunate truth is that he captured 47% of the popular vote. And yet Trump keeps repeating "I WON!," as if repeating it will make it so. 

Trump now says that the burden of proof is on Biden to prove that he actually received 80 million votes! Of course, it doesn't work that way.  The burden of proof lies with TRUMP and his insane idea that he, not Biden won the election. And yet, Trump keeps repeating the fantasy that he actually has the proof but the judges won't let his people admit the evidence. 

Unbelievable, bordering on insanity. His base eats it up (along with his requests for donations to help his defense). A grifter until the very end, Trump is known for his career of lies and self-serving distortions and treachery, and trickery and tawdriness. It's what got him elected, which is more a damning indictment of American citizenship than it is of Donald Trump. He could not have succeeded were it not for the hand-holds and greased ropes and smoke-and-mirrors of a sizable number of people who thought that he was a good idea. 

Trump will leave us soon, without a single solitary accomplishment outside his lone election. He is now an old man, shorn of the grandeur of the presidency, an office that he used as Huey Long once did in Louisiana, a mountebank Elmer Gantry; a fraud who yet commanded an audience because he could entertain them and divert them with the delusion that they were great; that they were worthwhile; that they were the salt of the earth. If they trod on toes and bent the law to suit their purposes, well, what was wrong with that? After all, what else is success if not the other side of the coin of someone else's failures?

I am overjoyed Trump will be exiting the White House in under two months but equally astounded that he received nearly 74 million votes. He has been a complete failure as president, but it's impossible to deny that he has prodigious talent at selling his lies, his conspiracies, and his fake love of America and her citizens, who are, during HIS presidency, dying at an alarming rate during the worst pandemic in over a century.
