Please no.

Just pull a David Cameron and fade into irrelevancy.

I did my job and got him probably voted in. I shall now return to my scheduled programming of "you're a centrist Mr. Biden."


And he's a neoliberal centrist at that.

I have seen bigger uprisings than all of you combined probably. Rule of thumb: want to be safe? Lock the doors and stay inside.

What is crazy is that in counties in South TX Hillary won by 30, 40, even 50 points, Trump ran even w Biden there. Those rural, almost wholly Latino, usually monolithically Democratic counties broke for Trump. It is a sign of a changing Democratic coalition.

Or at least a sign that Latino voters are going to be a more competitive bloc, which has been theorized for a few years now considering how conservative that group tends to be on the whole.

Anyone got some P2TM threads worth a good read or participation in? Anything would be preferable to the slow slog of vote data drops.
If you've had the unfortunate experience of viewing my horribly antiquated political views, I apologize. I am a far different person than I was in 2016, so bear with me.

Since Lillorainen's geography is currently being overhauled a 'tiny' bit, most information on it posted before December 12, 2018, is not entirely reliable anymore. Until there's a new, proper factfile, everything you might need to know can be found here. Thank you. #RetconOfDoom (Very late update, 2020/08/30 - it's still going on ...)

Exactly this. The culture war resonated in Miami, South TX, etc etc. It is not a monolithic bloc.

He already looks and sounds like ten gallons of shit in a five gallon bag, do we really think he's going to make it that long lol even with stem cells and amphetamines his heart can't be in great shape after all these decades of McDonald's

of course if he loses and then dies in like 2022 people will say Biden had him killed probably

Not good, but I'm not as concerned as I was two seconds ago when I thought Donald Trump tweeted that.

If Trump tweeted it, I would make sure there was alot of space in the hospitals and the morgue in Phoenix that day.

So it might be a good thing in the end that Biden tried to build a coalition that didn't rely on them, since they might not have gone for him regardless.
