(90,617 posts)I think I will try to catch Katy Tur. Of all the people at MSNBC I think she would have the most satisfaction in announcing Trumps demise and demolishment.
During the 2016 campaign she was assigned to cover him, and he ended up singling her out, Little Katy Tur, there she is folks, little Katy Tur. Then that unforgettable night when he called the freaking mob on her. Seriously, he did, so much so that the Secret Service collected her after the event, escorted her to her car, and saw her safely away.

"According to Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, '-Trump- didn't mean it in any malicious way', and he did not want anyone to attack or harass her."
My, my... How things don't change.

(90,617 posts)He was just appalling to this young woman. He tried to call his mob on her, and I saw that. And shes gutsy like her parents before her.
When Katy published her post-election book Unbelievable she just put it all together I hadnt known the SS scooped her up, nor that her mother was frantically trying to phone her, leaving messages pleading for her to get the hell out of there.
Godsdamn I hate Trump. I hope he rots.

(297,029 posts)brainwashed Idiots praying for him.. how did that work out?
Mahalo for the details from her book.. So glad she's doing the report from Philly tonight. I hope it's excellent news for Democracy.. and historical from Katy!
I just saw Colbert's monologue on trump's WH LIES & it was very emotional, Brilliant, and funny at the end.

(128,720 posts)Philly updated their count on their elections site at 1:21 am EST and has been providing updates about every 3.5 hours, so the next one would be between 4 - 5 am (and we still had a good-sized chunk of mail-ins still being worked on where Biden has been grabbing 80 - 85% of them).
Catherine Vincent
(34,486 posts)I can't believe I'm going to bed another night and no winner.
Oh well.

(28,333 posts)Okay then.
Cha
(297,029 posts)earlier here though. So no problem.
I hope the news is Good!
BumRushDaShow
(128,720 posts)Am considering getting a cup of coffee and just staying up. I can't forget the sick feeling I had on November 8, 2016, laying in the bed with the radio on just incredulous about what had happened... and eventually listening to the incoherent rambling speech of a madman.
Catherine Vincent
(34,486 posts)I would do that myself but I work in a few hours. Luckily I work from home so I'll wake up when I wake up.
BumRushDaShow
(128,720 posts)and I did used to work from home a couple days a week too, so that made a difference (didn't have to get up earlier for a commute).
Cha
(297,029 posts)I stayed up all Election night & Wednesday was Weird.. more refreshed today.
I know.. all the PTSD we have on so many levels is still lurking from 2016.. some from 2000, too.. bush Gore bush Gore.
This is excruciating but not nearly as painful.. so far anyway. not counting on anything until it gets Done.
I just watched Colbert's monologue and feel so much better.. it was brilliant and funny at the end!

BumRushDaShow
(128,720 posts)but I did get a good 7 hours last night, so that helped.
I just know the dread that I felt in 2016 watching PA, after 30 years, flip. And yes the past 4 years have definitely caused some PTSD - especially with this damn pandemic, which has officially made it a PITA just to the store or post office.
I am determined to watch my state flip BACK - "live" - if possible!
