I can accept that men who never finished high school voted about 85-15 for Tangerine. That I can believe.

But after having knocked on doors in South Milwaukee and Kenosha… I am baffled.

[And after speaking to several relatives who did the same, in South Philly] I cannot believe how anemic the turnout for the truth ended up being.

I may need a minute or two. May not post much today or tomorrow. Lies — many of them, preposterous on their face, told by a convicted-for-frauds felon… were apparently accepted as facts, by some good-sized chunk of the electorate yesterday. And the truth, as spoken (and documented!) by a woman of color… was dismissed, out of hand.

It seems Swift, Pepys — and later, Twain — had it down about right. That’s disappointing.

But his sentencing will go forward on November 26, 2024 — in NYC, in Judge Merchan’s courtroom. And if jail is part of the sentence, Tangerine will appeal. As these are state level felonies, he cannot self-pardon, though. Out.
