SOTFS Address

by — ,

President Shithouse is going to talk reel gud about himself in a few minutes. This thread is your sandbox.

5:59: Melania sends a message to President Shithouse.

6:06: The Dotard is in the house.

6:11: Why is the Dotard clapping? And swaying like he has to pee?

6:11: It looks like Melania is standing next to two men—One really short and one in uniform. No doubt, this will really piss off President Shithouse.

6:18: “If there’s a porn star, we tap it!”

6:25: What what? The individual mandate is the “core of ObamaCare?” Hardly. I am old enough to remember Obama campaigning AGAINST a mandate. Hillary was FOR the mandate. Ultimately Congress put it in to ensure enough young, healthy people signed up to reduce rates for everyone. ObamaCare lives, but President Shithouse and the Republicans own forthcoming premium increases.

6:32: “…and why we proudly stand for the National Anthem.” So now we are getting into the “racist fuck” part of the talk.

6:36: Seems to me that no federal employee undermines trust in the government than The Dotard himself. “Mr. President, it is time to resign.”

6:37: “America is now a net exporter of energy.” Yeah…that was the case under Obama.

6:55: The Dotard brings out the token Hispanic person…. Sorry, Shithouse, you aren’t going to get the Hispanic vote.

6:59: Republicans are all into pillars now. I’m old enough to remember when Barack Obama took all kinds of shit about the pillars at his nomination acceptance speech.

7:07: Man…that story about the cop who adopted the baby of the drug addicted woman was creepy! Is that the best heart-lifting story they could fucking find?!?

7:17: …”and we no longer tell our enemies our plans”…unless you consider Russia our enemy.

7:18: Shorter Drumpf on U.N.: “We bought your votes and you voted against us, damnit!”

7:19: …”sanctions on Cuba and Venezuela”…but not Russia!

7:26: Maybe I missed something. What was the point of the protracted anecdote about he Korean guy with crutches?

7:32: That was a LOT of windbaggery empty rhetoric.

Alabama Election Thread

by — ,

Will you be singing Sweet Home Alabama? Or will Alabama Get Away? Either way this is the place to discuss tonight’s Yellowhammer special election. If it ain’t (broadly) about this election, take that crap to the previous open thread.

I’ll be (*ahem*) Mobile on my way to Roanoke Park Place Tavern, and may post random observations and whatnot as the spirit moves me.

Here’s one for the geeks among us:

5:56: AP has Moore leading for the first time, 7% reporting….

6:02: I wish Washington election results would trickle in like this. This “one ballot dump a night” business sucks!

6:05: With 16% precincts reporting, Moore’s lead has shrunk to +2%.

6:10: Now 21% reporting, Moore’s lead is up to +5%

6:20: 33% in, Moore up by 5%.

6:26: Now 40% in and Moore is still up by 5%.

6:33: Yep…with 50% of precincts reporting, Moore’s lead over Jones has shrunk to 3%. Remember, bigger and more urban precincts usually report later….

6:40: Moore’s lead is back up +7% with 62% in.

6:57: Now 75% reporting and Moore’s lead has shrunk to +3% (51% to 48%).

7:03: Now 77% and Moore’s lead shrinks to +2%.

7:06: And at 81%, Jones is down by -1%.

7:09: And with 85%, Jones is almost even with Moore at 49% each. Jones is still down about 5,000 votes out of a million and some votes.

7:13: NYT still has Jones winning with a 73% probability by a margin of 2.1%

7:15: And as I typed that, the NYT “needle” jumped giving Jones a probability of 84% and a final 2.7% margin.

7:19: AP has 86% of precincts and Moore’s lead is about 500 votes.

7:22: Now we have 88% reporting and Jones is up by 8,000 votes. The NYT web site has Jones probability of winning >95%.

7:37: I love the fact that Jones’ margin of victory is LESS THAN the number of write-in votes. In so many ways, this qualifies as a STRANGE election!

7:52: If you are an Alabamian, child molestation is worse than being a Democrat. VERY SLIGHTLY WORSE!
