DJT new attempt is to say that the only way to increase voter turnout in the Georgia Senate runoffs is to go BACK and find the votes so he wins the state...then Republicans will be so HAPPY they will run out and vote.
He said that.
The best way to insure a @KLoeffler and @sendavidperdue VICTORY is to allow signature checks in the Presidential race, which will insure a Georgia Presidential win (very few votes are needed, many will be found). Spirits will soar and everyone will rush out and VOTE! @BrianKempGA

It is beyond time for all Republicans in office to come out and tell Trump to end this farce.
I know many won't...because they are bought and sold on Trumpism but the rest should...and loudly.

Trump lost a bunch more lawsuits today bringing the current total to 1-44 with the 1 eventually being overturned. It’s almost as if every court across the country agrees that everything Trump has been saying about the election is a lie.

Even Zac Taylor scoffs at that win percentage.

This can't be true as I was reliably informed that due to the number of Trump judicial appointments the last four years that our judiciary had been compromised as an impartial arbiter of the law. It's almost like our institutions are far stronger than a single presidency, as some have argued.

Is refusing to overturn our entire democratic process to benefit a celebrity con man with no concrete evidence a high enough bar to declare impartiality?

1-47 now. The GA federal judge went off on them.

...and in today's stupid publicity stunt lawsuit the state of Texas has now sued Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin over the election. Spoiler alert, aside from this being a stupid ass publicity stunt by the Texas AG, the legal argument is absolute garbage. Yet again though, this is why it was dangerous to humor Trump and his minions. We have let this circus go on so long it has become an absolute S*** S***.

I seen 80 million votes for Jo Jorgensen get burned at the same time a van that almost certainly held 74 million votes for Trump was near a building. No one voted for Biden, he looks like Skeletor with hair plugs.

Exactly. Now they're so far down this idiotic rabbit hole that even when the Electoral College votes Joe Biden into office next week, you'll see see Republican Senators refuse to acknowledge him. It's now political suicide for a Republican to take any other stance than Trump getting screwed over. Mouth-breathing blowhards like Cruz and Graham and Rubio will continue crying "Fraud!" and demand that Congress contest the election when they vote in January (spoiler: they won't).
This charade has been nothing less than dangerous to American democracy. My only hope is that is blows up in their face and they lose the two Senate seats in GA as a result.

Further proof this crap is getting dangerous...
https://thehill.com/homenews/news/529195-arizona-gop-asks-if-followers-willing-to-give-their-life-to-stop-the-steal
Quote:The Arizona Republican Party late Monday asked supporters if they were willing to give their lives in the fight over the results of the presidential election.
The party retweeted right-wing activist Ali Alexander's promise that he is "willing to give my life for this fight."
"He is. Are you?" the state GOP added.
Officials with President Trump's campaign and the national Republican Party did not immediately return messages seeking comment on the tweet, including questions as to whether it crossed a line into advocating political violence. Arizona was the site of a deadly mass shooting in 2011 when a man attacked then-Democratic Rep. Gabby Giffords outside of a grocery store, killing six in the process.
Attorneys for the president have been active in Arizona and other battleground states won by President-elect Joe Biden in a campaign to overturn state election results over baseless accusations of widespread election and voter fraud, efforts that have yet to bear fruit.

People talk a big game about dying for this and that, but when it comes time to pay the piper I'd wager they're going to stand around waiting for someone else to charge first.

I guess we will see what happens, but citizens who talk big about being ready to die for this and then tend to say it in the same matter as they say "I could be a better coach than the guy who is calling the shots for my favorite football team!" It just always falls under that "I'm not going to actually have to back up my words, so I'll just say I'd 100% do it because I think it sounds good."
This is everyone's chance to show that they mean what they say about gleefully dying for freedom, or what is right, or to show they would indeed run head-first into danger if it were the right thing to do. I just don't see an actual armed coup against the government getting far beyond the point at which these people start getting shot back at.
