|content=When Trump flips the coin, it always lands on its side. The odds of that happening by accident...aren’t worth worrying about.

|content=Looks like @EricRWeinstein called it
 
Trump said: “we’ll be going to the US Supreme Court. We want all voting to stop”
 
Left hears: we will stop votes being counted, holy shit they’re stealing it
 
Right hears: we won’t let anyone fill out new illegal ballots, what’s your problem?

|content=[[Morals|Moral]]: Don't fall for this when someone like Trump celebrates victory prematurely. This is a well known technique that preys on people not wanting to go backwards and have to undo things. Like Maradona, Trump may see it as just part of the game working on very agreeable people...

|content=If you want to understand Trump declaring victory, it's important to understand this was pioneered in 1986 by Diego Maradona.
 
Maradona realized that if he could get his teammates to celebrate his illegal #HandOfGod world-cup goal, referees wouldn't have the "huevos" to undo it.

|content=Like Trump, Maradona was extremely gifted and with very 'flexible' ethics. He learned this as a kid &amp; saw what he did as cunning, not cheating. In other words: if you can get referees to cover for you, it's part of the 'meta-game' to manipulate the refs.

|content="The headline is the story."  Of course, I think the networks refusing to call Florida for Trump for hours, even with a 400K vote spread, was done for the same reason.  Control the narrative to create the narrative.

I‘d be careful to treat this as a dangerous situation. Yes I’m making a few jokes, but they aren’t frivolous ones. They‘re nervous ones. Not being cavalier here: we need to do this correctly.

I will instead wait for our statistical/legal processes &amp; will congratulate Biden then. And not until.

|content=As I said 4 years ago, Donald Trump represents an existential risk to the fabric of American Society; I believe we are polarizing and unraveling as a dominant military power.
 
But the Democratic Party is now co-deranged, and is now a major force of illiberal suppression of ideas.

Trump didn’t get routed in 2016 as our institutional voices said he would.
 
Trump didn’t “lock-her-up”.
 
Our Media misled its believers into believing in a “Blue Wave” mirage.
 
[[Morals|Moral]]: disbelieve *both*.

But I‘d give a listen to Sam here. Eventually Thing 1 and Thing 2 have to leave the house with the Cat in the MAGA hat. And this crazy “adventure” will need to end so that we can find out what happens next.
 
🙏 Sam.

I‘m not sure I get the idea that the newspaper honored to start the #1619Riots is better than Breitbart.

|content=So...yes Trump has inured us to bullshit, braggadocio and flouting of our norms. He was after all hired as *poison* to kill the swamp creatures.
 
But did we prefer W who had the decency to get Colin Powell and other adults to tell us we needed to invade Iraq? And if so: why?

You would have to prove that in a court and it would have to be a massive fraud. There‘d be a code name like “Operation Ajax/Boot” as there was in 1953 Iran.

But that means expecting you to be serious about your own allegations. Trump is so far failing to meet *any* expected thresholds for responsibly alleging a conspiracy of this size.

|content=Look at MKUltra, Ajax/Boot, Mockingbird, COINTELPRO, Operation Condor, Iran-Contra, etc. Beyond what you believe is true, your team would need to prove a conspiracy. And the delta between what is now alleged v what is proven or even “alleged with specificity” is growing alarming.
