1. They are probably salivating at the thought.

2. Laugh

3. Some

like Twitter are limiting anyone doing it. We will see if they decide to do that to Trump's account.

4. Of course they will show it.

All these various infotainment outlets are going to show it. It makes them money, and getting rich is more important than justice, truth, compassion, ethics and decency. They don't care that they will be enabling a coup attempt, just how many fat stacks of cash they can make off it.

5. joe should declare victory every hour on the hour starting 3pm eastern nt

6. Keith Olbermann says it is easy...TV EXECS...DON'T SHOW IT!

I believe MSNBC already said they won't air it.

7. Wipe off down there and go on with their evening.

Just like Stormy did.

8. networks report what Republicans do...

the way they are told to.

9. They'll eat it up like a dog eats its vomit.

Expect no high-mindedness from the press. They'll report Biden winning when they get around to it which is when they have to. If Biden has to fight tooth and nail for weeks to make the obvious obvious, they'll play along like idiots. That's what they've done my entire life. Why would they change now?

10. Joe should declare victory early. Then Trump will demand all votes be counted. Reverse psychology.

11. You mean when?
