b'\\u201cIt\\u2019s all over but the crying,\\u201d says Rick Wilson in the second-ever The New Abnormal LIVE, alongside co-host Molly Jong-Fast, The Beast\\u2019s legal columnist Jay Michaelson and Daily Beast Politics Director Sam Stein. While the official results won\\u2019t be verified for a few days, especially given these extremely close swing state races and runoffs happening in Georgia, there is strong reason to believe that Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States. One thing we all know for sure: Trump isn\\u2019t going down without kicking, screaming and lying as much as humanly possible. If he officially loses, Rick predicts, his behavior over the next few months might get worse. There will be a slew of \\u201cexecutive orders, he\\u2019ll commute a bunch of scumbags, and undermine Biden\\u2019s legitimacy,\\u201d Rick says. \\u201cShit could still really hit the fan,\\u201d adds Jay. However, Sam thinks he\\u2019ll work more covertly and \\u201cgive the reins to Pence, cover his tracks.\\u201d An Ivanka as VP joke slid in there, but is it really a joke? The group surmises who Trump will dub heir to the Trump political dynasty (\\u201cLike the Kennedys, but orange,\\u201d says Molly). Ivanka would make sense, but Jr. deserves more credit here as caring on Trumpism 2.0: \\u201cHe speaks dick fluently.\\u201d As for Trump, they discuss his likelihood of running again in 2024, maybe alongside Tucker Carlson?, what Georgia being such a close race means for the Repubican party and how Biden will handle the COVID-19 chaos Trump is leaving behind. Plus! Can Trump convince Biden to pardon him? Maybe. But he definitely won\\u2019t be the powerful figure he was pre-presidency, says Rick: \\u201cHe may get another reality show, but he\\u2019s not going to be the billionaire development figure he plays in his head.\\u201d
