    Except what's happening is contrary to the law. It's contrary to the Constitution. Totally unAmerican. Anti-American.

    Except every time Republicans accuse a Democrat the investigations turn up zero convictions, can Republicans say the same?

    The Republican Party (no one on this forum though) entire platform is anti-democracy, they didn’t have to behave like small children screaming over a toy the adults will not let them have to prove it

    God this is pathetic. Still stuck on the "mountains of evidence" con. Funny how nobody has ever seen it. Ever. Anywhere. If Trump had evidence, he would have presented it two months ago. Get real.

    On what basis do you think you can overturn an election when no judge believes you ?

    States have had recounts, audits, certifications and nothing stops the delusional claims. You all aren’t going to believe any process that doesn’t tell you what you want to hear.

    Funny, they didn't discuss any specifics of it in their decisions to dismiss on procedural grounds.

    Judges don't control presidential elections.
    Is this new to you?

    When a ballot is adjudicated the original cannot be examined and the adjudication logs are absent.
    You knew your day was coming.
    Now relax, sit back and enjoy

    The good senators are following the constitutional process, wherever it will take them. Nothing more, nothing left. Not doing that would be dereliction of duties on their part. Duh

    The American public will be presented with evidence of election fraud and state election law violations during this constitutionally supported election challenge.

    Nope, but they do control fraud charges. Those who control the elections have all agreed there was no massive voter fraud. All of them.

    I don't recall similar outrage when Rep. Maxine Waters attempt the same thing or this

    "If there is an objection to an elector or electors on January 6, 2021, there is a recent precedent. In January 2005, Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones and Senator Barbara Boxer objected to Ohio’s electoral votes for George W. Bush, alleging “they were not in all known circumstances regularly given.” The House and Senate met separately as required and using a roll call vote the objections were widely rejected. The House denied the objection in 31-267 vote, and the Senate denied it in a 1-74 vote."

    Were they traitors as the Republicans are being called? Were they subverting the Constitution?

    The public has already seen it. There is none. I hope they bring up Dominion and get slapped with a suit.

    Half the country does NOT think the election was tainted. 33% of eligible voters voted for Trump and 70% of that 33% think
    the election was tainted. Get it right, man!

    95% of ballots cast have a paper trail. You are wrong here.

    They don't get to decide.
    Enjoy

    The American people will see the evidence of election fraud and election law violations and reach their own conclusions. Thank you for expressing your personal (pre-existing and set in stone) one though.

    It is a long shot, but SCOTUS cannot legally refuse Trump's suit based on standing because Trump clearly does have standing. But SCOTUS will find someway to run away and hide from this premiere constitutional issue.

    Another long shot: it is unclear if a congressperson from each house can object on an individual elector basis. If this is a question it would be for Pence to decide. If objections were raised on each of the electors from the 5 contested states, the objections debates could theoretically last until about Jan 20. Of course that would make Pelosi temporary president (if not Harris) until congress chooses one. Quite a stretch but worth contemplating in this highly complicated process.

    How naive.

    We've already seen it. There is nothing new here. If you think people who are unaware of Trump's epic failure in the courts are going to tune in Wednesday and suddenly see the light, well, how naive.

    They do decide. And what they've decided is there is no fraud. That you fail to accept facts and reality seems like a personal problem.
