The sliding GOP scale of what constitutes proof of Trump’s loss will eventually lead to: “If God reveals by unmistakable signs that Biden has won, then of course we will concede.”

At first the master’s mood elevators merely enabled him to forego sleep, but gradually he felt himself acquiring god-like powers: the ability to talk to animals, read messages in his tea, and defy the laws of nature. #TolstoysTalesofTrump
