“Two-thirds say the election was fair: poll“

Sounds about right. The other 1/3 are the 80% of Republicans don’t believe it was fair.

“Trump's Farewell Address: 'Especially Proud' to Be 1st President 'in Decades' With 'No New Wars'”

That’s because Iran wouldn’t bite, made current wars worse (Syria, Yemen), and his government financed Azerbaijan’s war against Armenia. In other words, he’ full of it.

“McConnell: Trump "provoked" Capitol mob”

Sure but he had a lot of help from... McConnell’s Republicans.

I am curious to see whether or not Trump pardons Assange and/or Snowden. Not that he cares at all, but simply to screw with Biden’s inauguration and to piss of enemies. In any case, I hope he does :)

And let’s not forget. E. Jean Carroll’s ( the woman he raped 25 years ago) lawyers are going to rip him to pieces. A lot of entertainment coming our way :)
