US election 2020 thread

y'know, if this was playing out in some tin-pot third world (ex)dictatorship, there would be howls from certain quarters that the will of the people needs to be respected.
Under any previous president, the thing about phoning election officials who were about to decide whether to pervert the course of an election or not would have led to calls for impeachment. For Trump, it's just a footnote to a detail in his day.
 
If Trump and his crazy gang keep this up there will be a bloodbath before long.
Yep, this is full on crazy stuff, attacking the journos, attacking just about every election official. Really ramping it up to take on board every crazy theory. I'd guess getting states to change their electoral college vote is the real target, not the courts.

'This is just an opening statement'

In other words, they have nothing. Maybe they do have the mad Venezuelan. Maybe. We'll see if he ever materialises.
 
Wait is Sidney the absolute loon part of this show ? If she’s on I’m going to have to watch
You've missed her. Rudi first, then Sidney with her international communist plot, then some lawyer talking about fake newspapers and corrupt state officials, and no they're not going to present any evidence of any of this. You're journalists, not judges. You wouldn't understand.

If Trump were any kind of competent dictator, then yes. But he's (thankfully) all over the place, and the chance of some kind of focused uprising amongst his base decreases daily - especially as it seems to me that he's been significantly reduced since election day - now, all he is is a couple of lacklustre personal appearances, and an ALL-CAPS twitterfest. The diehards may still buy into Brand Trump, and all the outsiderness it espouses, but with Trump increasingly out in the cold, the number of them who are prepared to go out on the street and die (or even kill) for it must be plummeting like a stone.
 
That's why you don't go after Trump. You go after all the Republican politicians who will still have careers after January. Forget pursuading Trump and his miserable band of loons. Isolate them instead.

Yes, I agree. But that's asking a liner to change direction mid ocean. The inertia that keeps things ticking over doesn't know how to react fast to a tech based putsch.
 
Ah I’ve found it, Sidneys bit. Same as she was saying days ago, nothing new. Venezuela. Servers. The cia.
I made the mistake of looking at the comments, from her supporters. They are ecstatic , don’t care at all about evidence just that she says trump won by a landslide and something about communists. It’s tempting to find her funny but her impact is not, is genuine harm.
