    Protesting the elections

    Violent clashes in DC after Trump backers’ election protest | WTOP

    What they're saying doesn't make sense.
    "count the vote"??? They did, he lost.

    The only things T's lawyers won was blocking off a few ballots, which is the exact opposite of the chant.

    Besides, if you're going to do recounts and observers...then you should do it for ALL states.
    That's truly counting the vote. (and observers from both sides and non-partisan)

    They're just being thugs.

    ** BTW, the Proud Boys are NOT Trump's group.
    That's just a opinion of the person who posted the clip.
    Although, T has said there's "fine people" in the group and encourages them. :rolleyes:

    Some Trump supporters concern me. Those wanting violent clashes exploit those who are passionate supporters.

    Trump needs to concede, and I mean well before Jan 20. We could have problems if he gives actual consent, direct or passing, to the protesters. Or even silent consent. It will probably take a lot of very powerful people kissing his ass while begging him to concede, telling him he was wronged while asking him to play nice. Of course that could backfire to feed his need to be contrary.



    A different tactic: All of the top Republican political leaders, and perhaps more importantly all of the top pro Republican media personalities, do an intervention. Meet with Trump, tell him repeatedly he did in fact lose the election, Biden won fairly and legally.

    Yeah, like that will ever happen.

    Yeah, like Trump would listen to them, much less believe the message.

    This is where we need an OMFG button.
    A DIAF would probably be too strong, stupidity on this level is really not her fault.

    If it were 1950 I would say her stupidity wasn't her fault.

    In 2020 I say her stupidity is her fault.

    Comments like that remind me of stupid shit one of my sisters believes. I'll see her tomorow, I won't discuss Trump or covid-19 with her.

    I find it hard to believe that so many voted to eliminate Trump and yet somehow pieces of shit like Graham, Tom Cotton, Sonny Perdue, and Susan Collins got reelected. Those are the elections that need to be questioned. Who interfered with the rightful votes there? We need recounts for them. Colorado had no cheating and Cory Gardner got tossed out on his ass.

    This is the main reason why I asked if the Repubs really want to push the recount issue.

    Wisconsin officials: Trump observers obstructing recount
    No, they know EXACTLY what they are doing!

    The pettiness is profound.

    This is as pittling as the little cheats between the teams as seen in Meatballs

    This is going to be going on as long as they can push it.
    And it doesn't surprise me that they are doing it.
    It's just frustrating that's even being allowed at all.

    Dick Dastardly antics to the end. :mad:
