Will there be a Donald Trump presidential library?

Gerald Ford lost the 1976 presidential election. Ford holds a really unique honor among presidents, because he was never elected; he was appointed vice president to Richard Nixon and then assumed the presidency when Nixon resigned. In 1976, he was defeated by Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter. The election was fairly close, with Carter winning 297 electoral votes and a 1.7 million vote margin (compare to … Continue reading Will there be a Donald Trump presidential library?

The rumor: Joe Biden, the 77-year-old seeking the presidency for the third time in his life, was also seeking it for the last time. He did not plan to run in 2024, whether he won in 2020 … Continue reading President Kamala Harris

The coming presidency-in-exile

In January 2021, Donald Trump will assume the title of pretender, the first widely-recognized President of the United States in exile. It will not be pretty. The first evidence of this came in Trump’s inability to admit publicly that he lost the November 3rd election. Even when, this past Sunday, he admitted that Joe Biden won, he quickly took it back. Joe Biden won in … Continue reading The coming presidency-in-exile

Trump could use this little-known loophole to still win the election

Ever since the liberal mainstream media called the election for Joe Biden even before all the votes were counted and with allegations of pro-Democratic voter fraud all across this great land of ours, the so-called “free press” has been proclaiming that Donald Trump can’t win the election, that he’s a “loser,” and that Joe Biden is going to be the next president. But these elites … Continue reading Trump could use this little-known loophole to still win the election

Joe Biden is the winner – but we don’t know how, yet

Across Twitter, armchair pundits and genuine pundits alike are a little frustrated by the lack of a call in the presidential election. No major network, nor the Associated Press, has called Georgia, Pennsylvania, or Nevada for Joe Biden. Without one of those states, Biden remains in limbo, stuck at a max of 264 electoral votes. He needs 270 to win. And he has them… somewhere. … Continue reading Joe Biden is the winner – but we don’t know how, yet

There’s a chance we look back on this and laugh, right?

Another Pyramid contributor challenged me to a simple contest: predict the outcome of today’s election and whoever is closest gets, you know, the honor of being closest. While he took the Road of Uncertainty, I’m making the bold prediction that by the end of the night, we’ll have three answers to three questions. And, sure, none of them are who will the president be next … Continue reading There’s a chance we look back on this and laugh, right?
