When people go out on top on their own terms, like star athletes who retire at the right time, many doors are open. I think people are underestimating the effects of even a narrow loss all around. He’ll milk the “unfair theft” shtick for a while but it’s not a career.

I’m not writing him off. He’s more of a live player at 73 than I am at 47. Runs on pure bile which seems to act as an astonishing elixir of life for him. He’ll find some way to matter. It just won’t be the 2 obvious possibilities of offstage kingmaker in politics or media.

True. The birther thing was a major kayfabe win. I’d expect something along those lines. Producer and booster of conspiracy theories. Maybe even documentaries like Al Gore.

His whole schtick previously was tweeting about Obama though. He can resume that with a much larger audience (cult) than he had

If he wins with PA, it will be vindication of the value of technically correct and statsistically conservative strategy in a game with a long history. He bet on the boring play of rebuilding the Blue Wall that Trump breached in 2016. No fancy narrative. Just do the math right.

It would be poetic justice if a figurative “rebuilt wall” kept Trump from a second term. Tactical fumbles like the Latinos-against-Socialism stuff in Florida foreshadow future strategic concerns, but in the short term, betting on the proven strategy seems to have been wise.

This might be the first time I've noticed NYT baldly use the word "lies" in a headline about Trump instead of euphemisms like "claimed without evidence" ... has this happened before?

If Biden brings it home I would like to request an ASMR presidency. Happy little trees. Free Bob Ross painting kit for everyone with next stimulus check.

Oh I just realized Token Republican on CNN is Rick Santorum. This is a world I do rarely pay attention to I don’t know most of the players by face.
