But it has to be something from the inside by a Russian, and he's not naive to that fact.

Same. There's a few that I can tolerate for 20 minutes a day. It's more about the niche subs that benefit from a wide range of people that have collected over the years. I love Lemmy, but even the large communities are a niche in a niche.

Depends on if you're a MAGA faithful or not. Because those are the folks that expect now that their votes mean nothing to him, to somehow still be important.

If Paul Krugman and Rashida Talib ever liked this idea as a workaround for GOP obstructionism, then there's not a high likelihood of it happening once the new Congress is in office on Jan 3.

The only drawback is that the inauguration would still go on, with all the people working it unpaid and the price of everything doubled once it's finally tallied up months later. So it would make his special day MORE special in some ways.

It's been happening for a few months, my theory was that in the runup to the election it was their only idea for CYA about bots, and it just so happens to mean they're using facial recognition scanning to catalog the real humans on their platform.
