The people that need to hear it won't hear it, if it comes from Democrats. Republicans - level-headed Republicans - need to speak out. That is the only way it will stop.

Finally. We need more of this. Trump is trying to undermine democracy. Republicans have to speak out about this because other Republicans - the ones that need to hear it - won't hear, or listen, if the message comes from Democrats.
I'd love for doctors to study his case. The disappearing and reappearing spine phenomena is quite something.

I heard on CBC radio from a woman involved that they had cameras everywhere monitoring the counting, even on the people feeding the machines with ballots.

Not sure if that's abroad or just in the state that she was interviewing from. But surely they could pull footage if its readily available to disprove the bs.

Keep in mind that he is talking about the POTUS. He can't just call him an asshat like we can. Those are fairly serious words. Not nearly strong enough from your om my point of view. But it's a start.

I will not be following the day to day of American politics for the next four years.

I expect stability and responsibility from the most dangerous human on Earth.

I expect the president of the United States to not treat Canada like a security threat.

I expect the person in the best position to stop this ####ing virus to actually give a #### about stopping it.

I can’t expect much more from the the leader of a foreign country.

That's the difference between Trump 2016 and no Trump 2020.

Biden is a horrible candidate.
Lol still with this? Biden is going to win Georgia and Arizona FFS. Trump has a literal cult voting for him.

Biden was the best candidate to beat Trump and it's been proven. The "I told you so's" were stupid on election night but to double down now...well I don't want to get banned.

If the mail in was counted first like states wanted this wouldn't have looked so close. Biden is gonna flip 6 states!

They have live streams publicly accessible.

When the screen gets blurry or pixalate, in those exact moments the Democrats are doing voter crimes, all the voter crimes and cheats.

So you're railing against Biden but when asked who would be a better candidate your answer is Sanders and 'see what happens'? We know what would happen, the word socialism would be put on TV and twitter from the right 24 hours a day leading up to the election and since that word is so toxic in the U.S. right now we'd have 4 more years of Trump. That's your answer?

Election officials have covered their asses. They knew that this was coming. Hell most people knew that this was coming the Republicans had been telegraphing this move for at least a month.

It will get dragged through the courts and it will go through due process. Those who believe it was rigged will go on believing their conspiracy, never the less, it will get proven with the best evidence available.

Voter fraud is very difficult to pull off. It requires voting on behalf of a person who is registered to vote. There is a system of checks and balances, it isn't like you can go through the phonebook and choose names at random and vote for them. You'd have to find someone who is registered but did not vote and vote on their behalf. In which case it would require faking who registered, something easy enough to find as most mailing votes can be tracked online to see if they have been counted yet.

Besides if Democrats cheated, they did a bad job of it because they still effectively legislate without the senate.

Sigh. It's not about convincing the Trumpers. It's about getting your own factual narrative out there to re-assure your own supporters and any possible fence-sitters.

This is a good example:

1/ ALRIGHT Y'ALL. ELECTION FRAUD DEBUNKING MEGA THREAD. I’m following claims of fraud and looking into them. I think I’ve solved most now. Nothing is holding up under any scrutiny so far so I’m making a thread to track in one place. Please RT! #ElectionResults2020 #Election2020

2/ By far the most viral of these claims is the video of officials in Detroit papering up/boarding up the windows inside their polling center in Michigan. This, admittedly, was a bizarre sight. But was 100% explainable and was the right thing to do.

3/ Officials rightly blocked the windows when crowds came inside and began trying to film ballots. Poll watchers EXCEEDED THE LIMIT INSIDE. This is not legal - you can’t barge in and film who ppl voted for. OF COURSE, there were *134 REPUBLICAN POLL WATCHERS* inside the room.

Biden lost Florida because he was too much of a "socialist" Bernie would have been destroyed

People need to admit they were wrong...it's okay, nobody bats 1000

This is why Biden lost Florida.



But for real Floridians voted overwhelmingly in favor of of a $15 minum wage. It not that they didn't want progressive policy, it is that Biden is a flaccid shell of a human with no personality.

0%. The cult won't back him in a general if he's the nominee, and I doubt he wants to lose again.

Lol this is the only impressive thing I've seen from his campaign and it took until November to come across it.
