Yes, let him think he's won, all the way up till it's too late to pardon himself, or resign and have Pence pardon him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biden is on a likely path to the exact same 306 and massive popular vote lead. To add humor to this tragedy, 45 called that win a landslide. It was not. He just lies and lies and lies. Why anyone still believes anything out of his mouth is remarkable. Massive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually a genuine question, as I have been following swing states rwter than totals countrywide, I have just read that he beat obamas previously record and is over 5 million votes ahead, which is in fact massive by recent standards, especially for a democrat.

Silencer Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Reading some comments here, anyone can see the problems, and division, in the US on full display. Silly writings about conspiracy theories, someone saying "the majority of Americans prefer a progressive agenda" (untrue, most Americans fall left to right of center), the election has not been called (it has been called, just not certified), and on and on. We all know Trump is an egotistical manic-depressive, on full display for 4 years. So ofcourse he won't concede unless he discerns a personal benefit. Most of know that the election was fair, even if you uncover a vote (or ten) that can be contested for a variety of reasons, it won't change the outcome. Unless Trump and his Hill allies try to disrupt the electoral voting process, the biggest political issues the country faces are what will Trump do over the next couple of months and who will win the two Georgia Senate seats, which will have a huge impact on how Biden governs, and how much of the progressive agenda gets addressed (personally hoping not too much). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it would have been easy and more reliable to go to any of the msm and look at the vote totals, I don't believe your question was genuine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is a lot of his orders will just be ignored. They will probably slow walk a lot of it and make up a bunch of excuse and lies. In other words, the same sort of stuff he routinely does. Or maybe he does us all a favor and quits like the sore loser he is. Ideally, they article 25 him out of office but republicans are probably too cowardly to do that.

Can Biden overwrite and cancel his exec orders in two months time? So whatever he does within these two months would be useless anyway.

He will likely execute several executive orders that CAN be cancelled by the incoming President, He can issue pardons (which can't be changed) to a wide variety of people (some talk about Assange, Snowden, family members, former officials).
