Another QAnon deadline passes. Trump was supposed to at least refer to his grand takeover of the US in that speech. Didn't happen, didn't matter to Q supporters. They saw 17 flags behind him. Q is the 17th letter of the alphabet. Goalposts moved until noon.

Really important story. Fox's Arizona call *only* mattered because it interfered with Trump's plan to call the election that night and 'stop the count.' If Fox now regrets that, then they regret not helping him steal the election.
