Jim, there’s no parallel for this. A sitting president just brazenly committed what is most likely election fraud and his base couldn’t care otherwise.

dems putting pressure on electors was everywhere after the 2016 election. you were probably still too morbidly depressed, but i’m no making it up. it didn’t get the traction that decertification has now within the GOP. but neither did it get any public resistance from anyone i. the left. None.

If his base couldn’t care otherwise then why did a person who most likely identifies as R start this thread.
Stop being dramatic Jeff, your turtleneck is cutting off your circulation or Paul stole your password.

When will the Always Trumpers admit the Never Trumpers were right?

Tonight is a good night for everyone to remind themselves that Joe Biden absolutely blew Trump out of the water.

Just got another PM on another site from a member here stating what a scummy person you are and some instances from your past.

It is amazing that that has happened multiple times.

I am pretty clued in on news stuff and don’t remember this happening in the past on either side, but it clearly wasn’t at this scale. Maybe I missed it.

I am only hearing about the Barbra boxer stuff now (on a story on msnbc this morning fwiw)....

OK you know i think you’re fair and reasonable. it was in the news every day for 2 weeks in 2016. sorry, i’m not a liar bryan.

i said it wasn’t at this scale. but there was absolutely no opposition from the left. and if you consider all the excuses the left came up with as to why the 2016 election wasn’t fair, it was on this scale, hilary blamed her loss on everything conceivable, except losing fair and square. how many of the lefties here told her to just shut up and admit she lost a fair election?

democrats have a long history of opposing/challenging the electors....it was justified when they do it...like most things...but an abomination when the republicans do it...they are a joke and they are acting like people who are guilty:kewl:



Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md.,

"I believe that Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-OH) have performed a very valuable public service in bringing this debate before the Congress. As Americans, we should all be troubled by reports of voting problems in many parts of the country," Van Hollen, at the time a House member, said in a press release. "I have been particularly concerned about the lack of a verifiable paper record in connection with electronic voting systems.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md.,

Sen. Hawley’s actions are grossly irresponsible. He’s attempting to undermine our democratic process, fuel Trump’s lies about voter fraud, and delay the certification of Biden’s win. In the end, this reckless stunt will fail, and Joe Biden will become President on Jan. 20, 2021.

you ask for specifics and get an insult, which means he has no specifics he can provide.

He’s right on GA I fear...can’t see that the GOP has any momentum at all.

Are you referring to Lindsey Graham’s call to Raffensperger?

Seems like typical Trumplican protocol

Republicans have likely lost control of the Senate, but will have the consolation prize of being able to marinate for hours today in delusional schemes to indulge the conspiracy theories of the man who did more than his share to lose these races

They built this golem, now it is destroying them, as many predicted.

Ask yourself whom you heard the Stable Genius attack more in the last two months: Ossoff and Warnock? Or Kemp and Raffensberger?
