Republicans - all talk and no action?

As Republicans claim the election was a collection of frauds, which I agree with, they aren't actually doing anything other than talk and trying to pass it off to the SCOTUS.

Why aren't they actually doing anything? They are like A.G. Barr - all talk, no action. The Republican legislators could pick electors for Trump - or vote that the outcome is unknown for election fraud - meaning they pick no electors - sending it to the House of Representatives, where Trump would win.

Seeing what happened, why hasn't the Georgia legislature outlawed mail-in ballots other than who can prove they are in the hospital, out of the country or in the military? Why haven't they a quick made it a felony to process a ballot that did not go thru the 3 triple verification if an absentee ballot? Why don't they make it a serious crime to deny poll and counting watchers? Why haven't they quick voted to require video cameras at the polling and ballot counting places? Why haven't they set up a committee to investigation the misconduct of the Secretary of State making deals with the Democrats to ignore Georgia law?

And why aren't the Republicans in other states doing the same?

If they REALLY believe the election was stolen - meaning goodbye democracy - if they really gave a damn they would steal it back - and have full power to do so merely by a legislative vote. But they don't. They talk. They do nothing of any real effect.

In my opinion it is because they are cowards - and have good reason to be afraid. The mega billionaires own all newspapers, television stations and the Internet. Mega Billionaires like Bloomberg spent tens of millions on the election. Mark Zuckerman spent half a billion dollars. Any of the international super rich would throw millions at any state representative directly - and billions to tens of billions each indirectly thru free favorable media, press and internet coverage - since they own all such "news" outlets as their PR firms - while incessantly attacking the Republican state rep - whose campaign budgets are nothing by comparison. What chance would any of them have against billionaires on the attack against them?

Yet it is that cowardice that has now turned this country into an authoritarian corporate-fascist plutocracy unless you want to claim kleptocracy as a better word choice.

For whatever reason it is, Republican officials are proving in the most tragic ways they are all talk and no action - while the super rich and the Democrats are all talk and all action without any restraints including laws and constitution. Future federal elections are going to be nothing more than which candidates better at kissing the mega billionaires asses. That's what this election came down to.

 

They aint called RINOs for nothin.

Cowardice might be a bit of it, but mostly its just theatricized opposition. Run on upholding the Constitution to get the vote, undermine the Constitution to get the corporate sponsorships, rinse and repeat until rich.

And yes there's plenty of DINOs as well, who pandor to the well-intentioned socislists then use 'collective responsibility' as a means to consolidate corporate authority via the authority we delegate to our corporate controlled govt.

The best we can do is realize that good people don't become politicians and delegate as little of our authority to them as possible.

 

most republicans know Trump lost fair and square

 

Every poll on the question strongly disagree.

 

ask the question when people are not willing to lie because they support Trump because they think it will help him in the here and now to steal the election

 

The GOP is REAPING the CONSEQUENCES of their own PANDERING to the GREED obsessed Wall Street Casino Banksters that now OWN all Republicans and Establishment Dems.

Only the Progressives have avoided the money TRAP through the use of ActBlue for their campaign funding. It means that Progressives can enter Congress WITHOUT owing anything to the wealthy elite.

So the Republicans ONLY have THEMSELVES to BLAME for their OWN predicament.

And NO the election was NOT "stolen" by Biden and the Dems.

YOUR biggest LOSER*-in-Chief made ENEMIES among Republican VOTERS and elected representatives at ALL levels in our nation. He called those SERVING in our military "losers". He FORCED farmers into BANKRUPTCY and SUICIDE with his moronic "trade war". He KILLED off seniors who vote Republican by FAILING to provide effective LEADERSHIP during the Pandemic. He crapped all over the Constitution and VIOLATED the Law of the Land.

That he was still able to DUPE so many millions of Americans a SECOND TIME says volumes about their gullibility IMO.

However a BIPARTISAN MAJORITY of voters FIRED him without any fraud whatsoever.

YOUR biggest LOSER*-in-Chief LOST by SEVEN MILLION votes!

That is factually documented REALITY!

 

There is one thing establishment republicans and establishment democrats fear; an outsider who is not a career politician and is willing to face their opposition and expose their kabuki theater man behind the curtain. They will stand before the cameras and SAY they support the things that The People are demanding, but they always have the built-in excuse of "the evil opposition" thwarting the righteous. There is little functional difference between them other than their rhetoric. The entrenched political class, regardless of party, is breathing a sigh of relief that they have finally ousted the bull from their china shop, and were somehow able to keep him mostly muzzled during his time inside.

 

ActBlue the main fundraising branch of the establishment warmongering neolib Democratic Joe Biden?

 

The terms Republican and Democrat are actually meaningless. We only have those being paid off or intimidated by the oligarchs.

 

And that's the entire story in a nut shell good Sir.. Sadly the Democrat Party couldn't realize that, it was their best chance to expose Washington for what they have always complained about

 

Republicans - all talk and no action?

~ Yeah - that's about the situation. Very few do the job. At least they are not trying to tear up the U.S. Constitution and destroy the country. Too many lazy bums.

 

What they did, beyond that, is make damn sure that no political outsider ever again dares to challenge their corrupt establishment status quo, which is exactly what is needed.

 

Would probably agree with you on republican elected officials - there are very clearly a lot of them on the national and some on the state level pandering for their own political careers. But as far as republican voters, I think the polls are probably mostly correct.

 

Thank you for proving my point.

 

63% of Trump supporters, not even all republicans.... lol

most Trump voters are just voting that way to show support for Trump, most of the 63% do not believe it either

 

how could that possibly help him?

 

Since you are advocating for activity that is clearly contrary to the spirit of the Constitution, shouldn't you be absolutely sure you're right about fraud?

If you ARE absolutely sure, then you should be able to make a compelling case for it. If so, I'd love to hear it.

 

There's a reason they don't have any action.
There's nothing to act on. They know this. But they are scared of don.

 

We saw that with the Tea Party movement where our own establishment Republicans essentially joined forces with the Dem Party and Barack Obama to gut them before they could take the last few steps to become a permenent check on rampant political power in this nation.

How did Obama get away with weaponizing the IRS to destroy the Tea Party? RINOs -- or establishment Republicans -- deliberately looked the other way while he did it and then conspired with one another NOT to prove it during the farce of a congressional investigation.

 

Or the fact that there is nothing the establishment can do to overturn the most secure and legal election in USA history.
That was what trumps own handpicked cybersecurity chief said about the election process he was hire to oversee. Krebs is the chief.

 

For 6 yrs, the establishment republicans were the party of NO to obama.
In the real USA anyway. I am not sure which USA you are apart of.

McConnel, Bohner, and Ryan never gave obama a single vote on anything.

 

~ And this is why they say "Capitol Hill - The Greatest Show on Earth " .

 

Explain how it was "the most secure and legal election in USA history" other than a chanting slogan?

 

I don't have to explain it.
The head of the cybersecurity gave an interview on it.
He explained it.
There's data showing it.

It's not my claim, it's trumps handpicked cybersecurity chief in charge of the election process that claimed it. I will believe he knows what he is talking about.

I am surprised you are uniformed on this.

 

He presented no evidence or proof of anything nor does "cybersecurity" have anything to do with election fraud issues. Why not have the head of the EPA declare his evaluation without any evidence or proof?
