Some will say Trump was trying to get the SoS of Georgia to find him enough votes to win Georgia. Others will say he was trying to get the SoS to get rid of votes that shouldn't be counted, which in turns gives him enough votes to win the state.

I think that is about as simple as you can make it.

I just want Jan 20th to get here so we can be done and get ready for the 2022/2024 elections. Trump is hurting the republican party with this crap. But I also think there is a huge faction of the republican party that wants more of what trump offered in terms of policy so we may get a new sub party of republicans (think tea party).
3 years of posturing, 1 year of same old shit. No different than what the left just went through.

Jerk. :-)

You get 1 line from Shel or 9 paragraphs from me... not sure we have an in-between.
I respect your thought out replies in the NBA thread. I just don't care enough in this thread to read that much :lol:

The tin foil hats are going full steam about tomorrow apparently there's been a drive by shooting of a republican audit team and all the ballots have been loaded up and sent to another country already 🤦

This is so ugly. This is not a show of Republican beliefs, these people are insane.

They are insane because Trump and conservative media has told them for 2 months that they should be insane. Trump could stop this but won’t. It’s sad man.

Court case after case has been thrown out, with even staunchly conservative Republican appointed judges going out of their way to blast the filing of the case as nonsense. But no one cares about that, Trump says there's fraud, then there must be fraud!

This is on Trump, 100%




Also, obviously not blaming the cops out there right now, but how could we possibly be this unprepared and not know there would be 1000s of fools that would get violent?

Yeah, seems insane they wouldn’t be more prepared. They have the right to peacefully protest, that’s fine and dandy but how do they allow people to get inside the building like this?

Supposedly protestors tried to breach the US House chambers, armed guards are there and ready and firing shots, which is exactly what they should be doing. Not sure if 100% confirmed, so take with a grain of salt.

These fools should be removed from the Capitol swiftly and by any means necessary.

That’s what I don’t get. If you are peacefully protesting outside then you have the right and protest away. Once you breach the building how are you not catching a bullet?

BREAKING: 1 person shot inside the U.S. Capitol, CPR in progress - Fox 5 DC
There's also video of someone covered in blood coming out of the Capitol on a stretcher with CPR being administered, assuming it's the person who was shot.

HAHA that shit is funny!

Billy and I have had a good discussion regarding this. I have been out all day and just found out 30-45 minutes ago.

Absolutely unreal! Every person able to be identified should be charged and the book thrown at them. These are the same people that were yelling "law and order" but go and do this shit!

As far as Billy's comment that this is because of conservative media, I wholeheartedly disagree. Conservative media has tried to give some credence to what Trump has said over the past 4 years. Liberal media labeled those same people that stormed the capital grounds, as well as all other conservatives, as racist, xenophobic, bigots, uneducated...etc. It's not hard to have seen this coming. Like I told Billy and Bama, we continue down this road of division we have seen over the past 12 years we are no more than 10-15 years away from a civil war.
