2020 Presidential Election -- Biden v Trump: Sleepy Joe vs Dopey Don [Results begin on page 409]

The legal pushback on the Ken Starr (and Mark Levin) argument that state legislators can nominate whomever they wish as electors.  Lessig: no can do. 

"As the counting of votes continues, an anti-democratic suggestion has taken hold among supporters of President Trump that Republican state legislatures could prevent a Biden presidency by directly appointing Trump-supporting electors to the Electoral College, rather than by sending a delegation of electors in line with their states’ popular votes. “GET READY TO DO YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY,” tweeted conservative radio host Mark Levin on Nov. 5. Soon after, Donald Trump, Jr., retweeted Levin. Later that night, Sen. Lindsey Graham joined the bandwagon. The idea is not entirely new: In September, Barton Gellman in The Atlantic reported that some state legislators were already considering this gambit—though Pennsylvania Republicans soon rejected the notion.

There are a host of clear legal problems with this suggestion, including that electors are required to be selected on Election Day, not later (absent circumstances not present here), and that due process requires a state to give effect to the fundamental right to vote for president. What’s more, such a move would justifiably be seen by much of the public as a coup. It is a terrible idea."

I have to say I'm astounded that the swingy state throwing down the "miss me with your fraud BS" hammer with the most force is Georgia of all places.

I wonder why. Do they see the state as purple now and know that being a GOP wingnut means long-term harm to their careers there? Positioning as moderate Rs?

Sadly, conspiracy nuts don't seem to understand that the burden of producing evidence falls on those claiming malfeasance, not on those saying "yeah, things went pretty much exactly as they always do."

The grift is so strong. Separating tards from what little money they have is the true American pastime.

Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe on Saturday hailed Hopkins as “an American hero” on Twitter. A GoFundMe page created under Hopkins’s name had raised more than $136,000 by Tuesday evening, with donors praising him as a patriot and whistleblower. The fundraising page was removed by GoFundMe after this story was published Tuesday, a spokesman for the platform said.

“Your donations are going to help me in the case I am wrongfully terminated from my job or I am forced into resigning due to ostrizization [sic] by my co-workers,” the page states. “It will help me get a new start in a place I feel safe and help me with child support until I am able to get settled and get a job.”

How long into Pence's vacation does he find out via Twitter he's been fired and replaced by Ivanka? This would make her the first female veep ahead of Kamala.

how can FOX allow Hannity to report all this BullShit live on TV right now? Fucking rumors

Because in this country, you are allowed to say anything you want on TV. Even outright lies that question the sanctity of our democracy. Because money.

Trump bankrupted a casino! And cried about fraud when he lost an Emmy. 

If I'm afraid about anything it would be one of his supporters doing something cray cray. DT will be out in January.

Oh we're going to see crazy. That kid that got a visit and the other ones talking don't worry me so much. It's the ones that don't talk. Ted, the unabomber. The LV shooter. The Sandy Hook shooter. Those are the worries. Smart enough to pull it off and keep quiet in the process. 

I'm not a member in good standing on the ledge, but I can see their concerns. 

They already tried to foist the violence in Portland off on someone else. Again, not very savvy to the nuances of cameras and witnesses. 

It's the ones that don't say anything that are a problem. Hell, it took Ted getting published and his brother recognizing his writing to get him

Eric Rudolph. Yeah, him too.

I'd like a word with any of y'all that agreed with shutting down the effort to root out this bunch of deplorables. Yeah, it's been a while. God, that's probably a decade ago.

They’re not trying to win in the courts. That’s a diversion. The court cases are only there to fuel the narrative of election improprieties and a parallel story of a biased judiciary. They are priming the cult to support a power grab through extrajudicial means. “If there was massive voter fraud and the courts did nothing about it, what other choice did the President have? He had to save us from the Democrats trying to steal the election.” 

That’s the play. Trump is not and never has been interested in persuading reasonable, impartial people. He’s talking to the marks. Always. There are a lot of them, and those idiots take a completely different lesson from the inevitable failure of these frivolous suits.

Somewhat this, but also a general ongoing strategy of constantly feeding the news cycle with chaos'n'bullshit because that tends to work out well for him. He doesn't think two moves ahead, he just shakes the tree and picks up anything that lands.

Guys- Trump is just gonna bitch on Twitter for two months and fire people.

Go on rallies for people to tell him how awesome he is and give him money/golf until his McDonalds & no exercise habit catches up with him.

Actually think it might be good for Trumpers to slowly realize they lost. Day by day they realize its over.

it's not something big..it's all fucking lies man.. how the hell does FOX allow all these heresay, there's nothing concrete, just accusations

Because they care more about their viewers than anything else. The rubes have spoken: Trump is god and anyone that refutes that is a leftist commie. 

Fox tried to do the right thing on Saturday. They called the race for Biden and then tried to shift into opposition party mode. The trumpkins would have none of it. Their god said he was cheated and Cruz and Graham validated it. Once someone outside of the Trump family spoke up to support that narrative the breaks were off and the GOP went full throttle into the abyss.

From where I’m sitting, it LOOKS like this is all just pandering to the base and to Trump’s bruised little ego. He has the base, and if he does indeed start a PAC, he’ll have all of the small Trumper money. As of right now, he’s just asserting his complete control over the Republican Party and the politicians have no choose but to play along. 

If this goes 1 day past November 23rd and PA doesn’t certify their election results, that’s when shit starts to get real. Up until that point it’s all just pandering and preening for Trump and his minions.
