    Wait, now I'm confused.......who's supposed to be telling the truth? Trump? Democrats accused of stealing elections without proof? Republicans accusing Democrats without proof? It's all getting very confusing.

    What's Trump have to do with it? I don't like when he goes after physical appearances either and have said so on this forum in the past. besides, he isn't exactly a fitness model. Still, TWO WRONGS DON'T MAKE A RIGHT

    that case is over, those I think hundred or so votes were tossed out due to slow mail service - did not change anything as they were set aside and not counted until the courts decided

    that said, it's sad republican in power said they would be supported, the courts refused to hear the case until after the election, not really fair to voters

    No when Trump won the election in 2016 he claimed that there was voter fraud between 3-5 million ballots but he never came close to proving it and he never ever informed anyone where he got the 3-5 million number so your confused.
    In 2020 he told his minions that there was voter fraud and cheating by democrats in the 2020 election before it took place but at the time he said this he never showed a shred of evidence. Same lying pattern as in 2016.

    I didn't say it would affect election results. As usual you put words in my mouth. i said it was illegal to usurp the power of the state legislature and that action deserves investigation.

    I think that is fine. The election isn't all that important. The credibility in future ones is very important.

    What's being attacked is an utter unawareness of what's going on around him.

    This is pure B.S. The issue before the judge was a fraud case involving individual ballots and Giuliani admitted there were no Fraud cases of that kind before the Judge

    Remember Trump encouraged his poll watchers to look out for fraud and cheating by the democrats even though he had no evidence of it. So whether there was real fraud and cheating going on was not there primary goal.

    Trump started claiming before the election that left wing poll watchers (meaning democrats) would steal the election without proof.

    https://www.alternet.org/2020/11/trumps-call-for-an-army-of-poll-watchers-is-fall-flat-so-far/

    "At a September campaign rally in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the president encouraged his audience to be poll watchers. “Watch all the thieving and stealing and robbing they do," he said. “Because this is important."

    He set them up to do just what he did. To simply call Democrat ballots fraudulent regardless of proof.

    Well, like Jimmy Carter said and others that mail in voting is rife for fraud. Trump is just repeating what others have said previously. Democrats initiated 300 lawsuits previous to the election to change how elections are held. An illegal vote disenfranchises a legal vote. Democrats are not interested in election integrity suddenly after Nov 4.

    This is what leftist bullying are now doing...which simply ignores the facts of the election. Of course our media have told you what to say. You simply have to ask why. Why do you feel it necessary to post anonymously on a political forum suggesting what you have? The fact that you believe in your assurance of message unity is astonishing. So, here you are, dutifully trotting out the talking points, and deriding those who are horrified at what this election has emerged. The invocation of Hitler is interesting here. This is the kind of post someone like Joseph Goerbels would have produced. Brava....

    So your not contesting that Trump is a bald face liar as I've proven below.
    No when Trump won the election in 2016 he claimed that there was voter fraud between 3-5 million ballots but he never came close to proving it and he never ever informed anyone where he got the 3-5 million number so your confused.
    In 2020 he told his minions that there was voter fraud and cheating by democrats in the 2020 election before it took place but at the time he said this he never showed a shred of evidence or where he got his evidnence. Same lying pattern as in 2016.

    You have proven nothing but simple bias on your part and an inability to comprehend the process.

    Oh I have proof but not a shred of evidence for the pure B.S you've been spouting off about Psycho-Trump

    He set them up to do just what he did. To simply call Democrat ballots fraudulent regardless of proof. And never once has this incredible liar told us where he got his evidence at the time he was preaching this. The same pattern as his other lies.

    Looks like I hit a nerve. :angered:

    First, the media doesn't tell me what to say; history does.

    If you know anything about history you should know that the first casualty under fascism is the truth.

    All Jews are evil.

    Just because Trump started talking about a rigged election you believe him? Didn't you notice how ONLY HE started it without ever providing a f***ing shred of evidence? This deluded idea only lives in his sick head.

    Trust me when I tell you; you have been brainwashed by Trump.

    But Joseph Goebbels would have been happy, seeing that it works.

    Pathetic is the proper term to describe Trump.

    He needs chemists willing to testify that their hair dye doesn't melt under pressure.

    If your point is that Trump is a liar and that you don't have the intestinal fortitude to prove a thing you've asserted today than I proved your point.

    Precedent matters. Which makes the GOP’s bottomless support of Trump all the more vexing. Harry Reid’s work haunts Dems, McConnel’s will haunt Repubs. Pretty nasty deal all the way around. Trump is in a league of his own though. That shadow is going to be looooooooong.

    The Supreme Court elected not to hear that.

    And which President has publicly referred to women as "fat," "disgusting," "ugly," a "piece of ass" and rated women's physical appearances on a numbers scale?

    Hint: Not a liberal one.
