That is why I have stated numerous times one needs to check and verify what is being said. I gave up accepting what Trump and his campaign staff says as the truth till its been checked and verified.
 
I mean, disinformation is pretty much their bread and butter, has been for 4 years. They're just pissy that they couldn't make Giuliani's Magic HardDrive thing work this time around.

They lost, but they won't get over it. They won't accept the results of a fair election such as this one. They will invent every excuse they can, they will throw every distorted fact that can, they will spew every lie that helps their narrative. We're not talking about honest folk here, we're talking the Trump Faithful, the Cultists.

Facts are nothing to them, it's all perception. It's all an invented narrative and they're trying to spin one that says that somehow the Democrats stole this election when the truth is, they lost. Plain and simple. Like Hillary in 2016, Trump lost. It's done, it's over, Biden takes over in 2021. Trump can go on his own "It's everyone's fault but my own" tour after that. But he lost. Trump is fired, and good riddance to bad rubbish.
 
Trump and the Republicans know that the 2020 presidential election is lost.

Forget the 2020 election, this transition intransigence is about keeping their base - especially in Georgia - energized.

The GOP and its wealthy donors clearly realize that David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler must retain their Senate seats at all cost.

The GOP and rightwing radio will spare nothing - conspiracy, lies, money, voter suppression - to hold onto those two seats.

The question is, can the broad Biden coalition in Georgia stay cohesive and motivated until January 5?

If not, then Biden will be boxed-in by McConnell for at least his first two years in office. Think Obama Part Deux.
 

In 2016 i thought i witnessed the biggest post election reaction. Millions turned out, marched in protest to Trump.

People exercised their citizens right, i believe for the most part peacefully in 2016. If i am wrong others will correct me, feel free.

I have seen no compelling evidence to assert Trumps initial claim of illegel votes, nor has a court, with one exception. The late arriving ballots in PA, counted but physically sequestered. Press reports say those amount to 10,000. Do the math Trump folks, its not going to change the end result in the electoral college.

This is the Rights payback for 4 years of anti Trump, but they know in the end its over.

It's going to be a circus for 2 months and then 4 years worth of crying.

And then Trump has to stay out of legal jeopardy so that's gonna be a circus all by itself.

Then the kids have to stay out of prison and that's another circus.

Then Rush and Sean and Fox have to figure out a way to say they supported all the good stuff about trump, LOL, and not the bad stuff. That's another circus.
 

that's probably the best case scenario, unfortunately.
 


That’s an interesting observation.

During and immediately after the election, the Trump campaign argued to stop the count (selectively, of course).

This put them at odds with local Republicans who wanted votes counted. The locals willed out, for the time being.

I suspect that if Trump tries to drag his campaign out with a long series of frivilous lawsuits, and the accompanying talk radio and twitter campaign, that the locals are going to start paying a lot of attention to how Trump’s behavior may effect their chances.
 

I rarely watch cable news, but did so over election week. I did watch several hours of Fox, over those 4 days, along with CNN, BBC and others. CNN were Anti Trump, which is why i gave up on them 3 years ago, every tweet is not breaking news

Fox, oh boy that there is some serious chain yanking. We are letting much of the media t
 
A new poll shows that “70 percent of Republicans now say they don’t believe the 2020 election was free and fair, a stark rise from the 35 percent of GOP voters who held similar beliefs before the election.”

The Republican Party is basically a group of people who believe whatever Trump tells them to believe.

They are the Jim Jones party.
 
I'm beginning the fable about the boy who cried wolf is bullshit now. Just keep crying "Democrats are cheating", and the whole Trump crowd will come out with their pitchforks.

Every. Single. Time.
 
Right now all trump's trying to do is fire up his base so that he can have an exit strategy - either to start a hate tv network, or for another presidential run in 2024. He's willing to **** with our democracy in order to forge a new career for he and his family. Nice, huh?
 
If all this is disinformation, there’s nothing for Democrats to worry about, just plan on Biden taking office.

However, the “Trump Cult” now involves Barr.
 


such stupid ignorant shit and yet so freakin' dangerous.

I think truth is a thing of the past in politics.
 
Consider:
1) Hillary was seen with a shovel at a grave yard
2) I have seen boarded up windows in the cities
3) What else could burn besides ballots with Trump's name on them
4) If sharpies can be used to predict a hurricane, you know they change the vote
5) I wore my OSU shirt to the polls
6) Poll workers never lie, even if they currently working at the poll
7) Your fake news is the real fake news
 

I'm not one to seek the limelight, but I will take a quick bow for the success of my zombie spell which brought all of those dead voters back to cast their ballots for Biden. I'm not quite sure how to get them back into their graves, so I'll leave that to the rest of you.
 
Those poor folks in Georgia. Two more months of nonstop campaigning.

It's dangerous when half the country believes all these lies spread by your right wing friends. The country will have difficulty agreeing on anything and divided Congress won't be able to accomplish much of anything. (Chaos is pretty much Russian goal)

Barr has ALWAYS been part of Trump Cult
 

Of course what the evil Senators in Georgia and Republican Party will do is commit fraud, but accuse Democrats of being fraudulent. They worship the rattlesnake. But Joe Biden's victory will energize all the Georgian Democrats and Donald Trump haters.
