Georgia: hand tally complete

I wonder when Trump will get tired of losing.
-
I don't think I've ever seen anything as grotesquely incompetent as Trump's challenge to this election.
If this was Britain, he'd be a Lib-Dem.

Surely long before we get tired of watching it.
But not yet! From CNN this morning: "As legislative leaders, we will follow the law and follow the normal process regarding Michigan's electors, just as we have said throughout this election," Michigan Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey and Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield said in a joint statement after their meeting at the White House."

Banana republic shit.
They want to turn us into Trumpmenistan.
You expected a different ending to a horrendous four year movie of the attempted dislodging of the “illegitimate Russian agent” President?
Oh that’s right nothing there to see.
Personally, I think they are equally awful.

Whaddabout impeachment?, Loki wants to know.
It’s a political process with a very very strong check and balance. You don’t get 2/3 of the Senate voting to convict without large majorities agreeing the man needs to go.
Contrast that with Trump’s move - trying to coerce a few dozen people to overturn the result of an election where 150MM Americans just voted.
No equivalence whatsoever.
-
I think the equivalent is that from the beginning in both cases, it was (quite) obvious to most people that neither cases had any "merit", or at least were built on not so good evidence.
Yet, both pushed through.
I think that the result will be the same in both cases.
Russia investigation = "nothing to see"
Election fraud = "nothing to see"

Sorry you just don’t get it. You want proof. Look at what happened in the Senate, the pick up of House seats and governorships. The threat to the Republic is not something that many people believe. It will be fought over for many decades in history and political science books.
The sky is not falling.

Now you’re not any sense.
How are house and senate outcomes relevant to your argument for the equivalence of impeachment and attempted election theft?
Your side jump the shark so many times over the last four years you have no standing with your arguments and you got that confirmation at the ballot box with a massive wave of people that never voted before.
Normally I would say Trump’s moves are a threat to the Republic but I see it as a farcical ending to a bad movie that your side wrote.
-
You keep pretending that because he’s unlikely to be successful it’s not a big deal.
Meanwhile otherwise sane people on this board and some scores of millions more believe every word of it.
And grown men in his party who know better are afraid to call him out, out of fear of those scores of millions.
But for you it’s “move along, nothing to see here”.

I already said elsewhere that if after the certifications next Monday and Tuesday of Michigan, PA and one other that if the GOP doesn’t get on board that I will change my position.
Of course Sydney Powell could pull a rabbit out of her hat but that would catch me totally off guard. I put higher odds on the GOP losing both seats in the Senate run off... a lot higher.

Bull shit. You guys are getting all your information from the very media that have been proven to be nothing but propaganda. True sheep. It doesnt take a genius to see that your country is being stolen from you - not by the republicans, but by the very ones you are defending.
