Yeah, she's probably waiting on Michigan. They're still playing silly buggers with the vote count.
Not that it will make a difference.

Trump is 92,000 votes ahead in Michigan, with 98% of the vote counted. And Michigan still won't call it... RED.

The only thing I can figure is that the left is hoping for many of the electoral college to "flip" when they actually vote.

Other than that possibility, she may as well just make her address now.

Is this a serious question? LOL

These aren't gangs where your stuck with them (although a lot of people treat it as such). You don't have to blindly vote democrat or republican because of the party they're representing. People, like myself, vote either way based on the candidate and the circumstances. This is how it SHOULD be, even though most just declare themselves one side and would never flip no matter what which is the problem.

The problem, championed by Mitch McConnell, for the last few decades. His policy of dividing the US, Republican vs Democrat has really rekt the US unfortunately. As an onlooker, it appears bat shit crazy to me how the US has got to where it is today (relating to political and social divide, nervermind foreign policy over the last decade). great to see that he has not been completely successful.

The majority of people you talk to can't even get into detail on why they're voting for a specific candidate. Aside from tabloid headlines they read about or watch on social media, etc. 95% of voters aren't doing their research to understand what they're voting for but will gladly argue with family over their choice lmao.

Turns out when you push a candidate that never made it through a primary, they don’t perform well.

Who would have thought this

don’t care about result, $$ time

It takes two to tango. The famous moment is when Mitch McConnell scolded democrats for using the nuclear option to ram through judicial picks, telling them it would come back to bite them later. Which is exactly what it did, as McConnell ensured- Republicans used the open door to secure more judges and fired back with their own tit for tat nuclear escalation to confirm a supreme court justice. Democrats and Republicans used to ratchet up the rhetoric and divisive measures on equal terms, they both approached the ledge.

But all that completely utterly pales in comparison to what we've seen in the past couple years. Raiding opponents homes, throwing them in prison, conjuring up bogus charges, the violent rhetoric preceding assassination attempts. Republicans never approached the abyss like Democrats have. McConnell was a turtle who plodded along and bit back at the hand that struck him, democrats pulled out a bandolier of grenades and started blowing shit up

I dont live in Amerca, but at the simplest level i would say:

Trump is charismatic and he survived so many attacks. He comes across as a flawed man, but he comes across as genuine (even if you dont agree with some of his positions).
Biden stayed way too long, and Kamala was not able to separate her persona from his. Kamala is not charismatic and was never properly tested, and her positions are literally unknown. no debates / primaries, not a leader.

its quite simply amazing how Donald Trump has won when noting the media was against him, the establishment was against him and they literally did everything to try to stop him. Biden calling 1/2 of America Garbage has to be a gigantic own-goal for the Democrats, the contempt Biden has for Americans is astounding. I think I need to read a few books about Biden as he is not what I first thought him.
