As opposed to Pres. Trump and his supporters who simply want to see that justice is done?

Ok, trying to make sure the election is fair and legal, hurts the country in what way?

You seriously think that this is what Trump's primary motivation is?

Lol Jolly. That part ended over a week ago. He’s been trying to subvert the results of the vote since last Monday at least.

Legal tactics are subversion?

What alternate universe are you living in?

I heard it will cause massive distrust the fundamentals of our democracy.

Trying to get bureaucrats and legislators to subvert the vote was not a legal process. It was a political one, and almost certainly unconstitutional.

So why does Giuliani say one thing to the public, and another to the courts, if he's so busy defending justice?

This is precisely the same question I asked about Brennan and the others in the "RUSSIA!" investigation.

So, presumably Jolly would answer that they're both seeking justice.

My answer is it's because they're both disgusting and sorry excuses for human beings.

Still, at least Brennan doesn't look like he's escaped from the mortuary.

Educate me.

What did Trump do that was unconsitutional?

[jon-nyc]

Re-read my post.

[Jolly]

I did.

Answer the question.

[jon-nyc]

You wouldn’t need an answer had you read it. He attempted to have others overturn an election in a way that is almost certainly unconstitutional.

That is pure bull shit.

[jon-nyc]

Your question was a non-sequitur. I don’t accuse him of personally violating the constitution.

Though obviously he has.

[Larry]

No he hasnt.

The massive threat to democracy and national security is over. Boy was that a close call, I can emerge from under my desk. We should all be dancing in the streets.

I heard we set back the nuclear clock. Huzzah!

I don't quite understand your position Loki. Do you think that significant numbers of people believing the electoral system is rigged, isn't a threat to democracy? Looks to me that this election cycle has already done significant damage to democracy. The degree to which your population is polarised, and to which politics has been subsumed by identity is pretty frightening. I don't understand the blasé attitude in the face of such stark changes to norms surrounding political disagreements. I see of course that these issues predate this election cycle but they have surely worsened to a previously unthinkable degree.

[jon-nyc]

I raised that point to him numerous times. I think it’s how he gets over the cognitive dissonance of having supported this guy. He conflates “he won’t be successful at subverting democracy” with “he’s not really trying to subvert democracy”.

[Larry]

What's coming isn't going to only rip the democrat Left in this country a new asshole, it's going to cause dozens of other countries to have to reexamine their current government's as well....

I just can't wait...
