What “process“ is Trump referencing?

1631986159606.webp
 
Conservatives: when Trump accepts the legitimacy of the 2020 election results and announces that he will not be a candidate in 2024, we'll stop talking about Trump.
 
What process is there to decertify an election that was held 10 months ago and certified by Congress 9 months ago? That aside, this action by him has one purpose and one purpose only to keep the base riled up. This may play really well with the hard core base but any true conservative who values the Constitution should be disgusted that he continues to try and delegitimize and undermine valid American democratic processes.
 
There is dispute whether Einstein actually said it, but it fits here nonetheless: Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

“…..start the process of decertifying the election, or whatever……..”

What does the bolded mean?
 
If we don't have a process to correct an incorrectly certified election...we have a BIG problem.
 
Be interesting to see the report reffered to. Breaking the chain of custody rules could be an opportunity for fraud, or could be just a technical error that in no way affected the voters intended impact on the count.

Several of Trumps previous arguments have been attempts to disenfranchise dem voters due to 'technical' issues. Nothing to do with fraud, just looking for ways to block the count of votes that represent exactly what the voter intended, but missed some technical compliance issue.

Here you go, right from Trump's hidden blog.

That's where he tweets now! It's awesome, and I missed them.
 
Oh good, just on the day this was needed to fuel a mess, Trump fans the flames of conspiracy theory and a months late attempt to take votes off the board that he does not want counted.

How many of you guys continue to support that lunatic?
 
The most illegitimate president ever:

A. Who was very likely elected due to Republican states purging voter rolls via Interstate Crosscheck (under the bogus notion that lots of people are voting in more than one state)

B. Combined with the unequal voting-power of the Electoral College

C. Who has claimed election fraud at least since he started running for president

D. Who instigated 1/6/21

E. Who previously tried to illegally(?) overturn the Georgia elections

... is still trying to overturn elections.

So they appear to be technical errors rather than any actual proof of fraud in the votes? Let's disenfranchise 43000 voters who we think will mainly be Dem supporters and see if we can alter the result. If they actially provided some hard proof of actual fraud I would have some sympathy for their arguments, but trying to block otherwise legitimate voters on the basis of some administrative errors while also trying to call it part of dome great 'fraud'.... That just reinforces the belief that Trump is realky just promoting the 'great lie' to sooth his ego and collect money from those who still believe him.

There has been no fraud in any states where Trump claimed it was happening. His own lawyers admitted it when questioned by judges. You;'re being strung along by a con-man as a way to milk more money out of his very gullible base. He is treating his MAGAites like they are mushrooms, Always in the dark and fed a steady diet of BS.

In a recent Pennsylvania federal case, Giuliani alleged “widespread, nationwide voter fraud” in his opening remarks. But under questioning from the judge, he retreated. “This is not a fraud case,” Giuliani later admitted. In the same case, Trump lawyer Linda Kearns said explicitly that she is “not proceeding” on allegations of fraud.


In a separate state case in Montgomery County, Pa., a judge asked Trump lawyer Jonathan S. Goldstein whether he was alleging fraud. “Your honor, accusing people of fraud is a pretty big step,” Goldstein said. “And it is rare that I call somebody a liar, and I am not calling the Board of the [Democratic National Committee] or anybody else involved in this a liar. Everybody is coming to this with good faith.” The judge pressed Goldstein to answer the specific question: “Are you claiming that there is any fraud in connection with these 592 disputed ballots?” To which Goldstein replied: “To my knowledge at present, no.”


In yet another state case in Bucks County, Pa., Trump’s attorneys signed a joint stipulation of facts that explicitly admits that they are not alleging fraud, despite the President and his lawyers’ repeated public claims, according to Marc Elias, a lawyer working for Democrats on election-related cases. The stipulation of facts reads in part: “Petitioners do not allege, and there is no evidence of, any fraud in connection with the challenged ballots.” The stipulation also says they don’t allege or have evidence of “misconduct” or “impropriety” in

Donald Trump is the perfect example to teach body language and writing analysis.

In Court, Trump's Lawyers Aren't Claiming 'Massive' Fraud

While the President and his lawyers make histrionic claims in public, the campaign's legal filings are narrow in scope

I don’t think his signature is intended to represent real letters in the alphabet.

What Trump, and far too many Americans, fail to comprehend is that the popular vote for President does not, and never did, matter. The only vote that matters when electing the President of the United States is the Electoral College vote. Nothing else.

States can do whatever they please, including commit massive election fraud, or violate every election law they ever created. None of it matters, because
the Electoral College determines who becomes the next President, not any vote by the people.

Considering how Trump won in 2016, he should already be aware of this fact since Hillary had the majority popular vote and still managed to lose to the Electoral College vote. Just like Gore did in 2000. The popular vote for President does not mean diddly-squat, and it never has.
