One question: how the hell did we pick Trump to be President to begin with? - superadmin - 11-05-2020
OK, perhaps not exactly what you were hoping for. Election night wasn't a real thriller for a whole lot of people, and now it looks as if we're going to be counting votes for … quite a while.

The post-election fog was so thick that we occasionally lost track of some details – like, say, who was winning. Joe Biden certainly seems to be doing better when it comes to little details like getting the most votes. Donald Trump, whom you can feel free to refer to as "the long-shot contender", has responded exactly the way you'd expect – declaring victory while waving around lawsuits.
