the passage, 1x05: “how you gonna outrun the end of the world?” ↳ you can tell a lot about a person when you let them think they're more powerful than you are.
“Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth.”

After President Joe Biden ousted former President Donald Trump last year, setting him on an epic path of complaints and lawsuits, the media dubbed the GOP a bunch of sore losers who just couldn’t accept election results.
After President Joe Biden ousted former President Donald Trump last year, setting him on an epic path of complaints and lawsuits, the media dubbed the GOP a bunch of sore losers who just couldn’t accept election results.
It didn’t help that some Trump supporters stormed the Capitol and tried to upset the ceremonial Electoral College count to elect Biden.
But considering the Democrats' rejection of Trump’s presidency four years earlier and their promotion of the Russian collusion investigation, it got GOP pollster David Winston to wonder if election rejection was only a Republican thing.
When he conducted his February “Winning the Issues” survey of 1,000 registered voters, he included two questions to test his doubt, asking if Trump and Biden were elected fairly or not.
…
In nearly identical numbers, partisans felt their candidate won fairly, and the other guy did not. Remarkably, only 19% of the country believed that both Biden and Trump won their elections fairly.
Winston told Secrets that 62% of Democrats believe Trump was elected “because of Russian interference” and that 61% of Republicans believe Biden was elected because of fraud.
And both sides, 87% of Democrats and 82% of Republicans, believe their guy won fairly. Slight majorities of independents said both Trump and Biden won fairly.
…
“The key to a successful democracy is that those of the party that lost accept the results. And what these two elections are showing us is that in each one, 6 out of 10 of those voters are not accepting the results. This is a problem that faces both parties and is now a national problem,” said Winston.
“The challenge facing the country is to bolster confidence in the results, so the electorate trusts the results because this is the core element of a successful democracy,” he added.
Bipartisanship appears unlikely, however, as Democrats push to ease ballot security in Washington and GOP-led states push for stronger ballot protections, including voter identification.

WASHINGTON | GOP exploring reasons for gender disparity in new Congress
WASHINGTON — For congressional Republicans, this month’s elections ushered in the year of the woman — literally.
West Virginia’s Carol Miller will be the only Republican woman entering the 435-member House as a newcomer in January. She’ll join what may be the chamber’s smallest group of female GOP lawmakers since the early 1990s — as few as 13 of at least 199 Republicans. Democrats will have at…

With DACA move, Trump and GOP face a crossroads on immigration
With DACA move, Trump and GOP face a crossroads on immigration
President Trump is hurtling toward a crossroads on immigration — his signature campaign issue and a key source of his law-and-order reputation — where each path before him comes with significant political risks. Trump has temporarily placed the fates of roughly 800,000 undocumented immigrants brought to the United States as children in the hands of Congress, buying himself time and shunting…
