It’s October 22. How do things feel?

Well, Rudy Guliani is about to be featured in the new Borat movie, which apparently comes out tomorrow. I doubt we’ll remember it in 90 days, but maybe.

Hunter Biden’s laptop scandal is going through some interesting iterations. First everyone shut it down, including Twitter and Facebook. But now the Wall Street Journal is saying Joe Biden needs to respond. It feels like it’s a slow burn but the story may actually end up meaning something.

The second and final debate is tomorrow. Trump’s campaign has been working the refs. He was rewarded with a new rule that mics are going to be shut off during the candidates’ first two minute response. We’ll see how that goes. For me, if Biden can manage not to say something outrageously stupid, he’ll be president in two weeks. Hell, even if he says something outrageously stupid, people still hate Trump.

Oh! I just calculated 90 days from today, and I see that 90 days from now is the day before the big day. Inauguration. Gosh, I wish I knew what that day would look like. Here’s my best guess.

Trump contests the results, obviously. He spends the entire lead-up to the inauguration slashing and burning things. Not sure what. Then, the day before the big day, will he know he’s moving out? Will he be trying to shut down Washington, DC and claim he really won? Or will he come up with some excuse, like how he didn’t want to be president anyway? Will he be leaving willingly? Did the Republican party abandon him, or let him try to keep up the charade? Gosh. I’m going to guess the GOP explained that he lost, and that he was out of moves and had to leave.

But who fucking knows. That’s the thing about someone like Trump. You can’t put anything past him. Good luck, 90 days in the future society! You’ll need it!
