Chairslinger Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I hope it comes down to PA and the vote margin is one and that one vote is the 95 year old lady Wade convinced to vote. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding (keep in mind that I’m a dummy) is that it’s like trying to move away from using “guys” to refer to a mixed gendered group, or saying “men and women” or “boys and girls” because that doesn’t include non-binary people. It’s a clumsy attempt to be more inclusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a clumsy attempt to be more inclusive. It's worse than that. "Latinx" simply doesn't make grammatical sense in Spanish. Especially for older Hispanics, it comes across as white people telling them how to speak their own language and getting it horribly wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to get the Supreme Court (or lower courts maybe) to review their claim and then decide if their case has merit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump loses 2. ????? 3. Trump holds into power They can’t actually articulate the middle section, but he’s going to try and so we should be worried. And then when lawsuits happen, like in every election cycle, they say “seeeeee! This is it!” But they still can’t give an explanation of the relief that could be granted that change the outcome, so they quote my point about there not being an actual mechanism to do it because they have no idea what they are talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
