How seriously does the Trump team really take the Dominion conspiracy theory?

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

Educate me.
What did Trump do that was unconsitutional?

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.

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

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.

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”.

If you both want to talk about the threat of propaganda and rhetoric to democracy I will happily take that on. To pin it on Donald Trump tells me right away that is a fox hunt and I am not interested.
I said Trump would loss about a year ago, I said he did not represent my view of a President, I said his only redeeming value was a fuck you to the media and the woke deplatformers, I said the morning after he lost, I said there would be no civil war, I said their would be a peaceful transition of power.
I don’t need words put in my mouth when I have been very clear all along and generally very accurate... unlike the propaganda.

Trump was certainly a lightning rod, and revealed the asses of a lot of haters. But you don't have to blame it on him, unless you want to.
As far as rigged elections, I don't need to merely believe, I know for fact that our society was made up of millions of people who would have considered breaking any rule to be righteous, as long as the goal was to get Trump out of office. At that point, you trust the security of the systems and the infrastructure around elections. Let's not be princesses about trust in electoral processes. They are broken to the extent any TDS sufferer thinks they could be broken. And they would go to their grave feeling good about it. That's just fact, I shouldn't even need to say it out loud.
