gotta give to Trump and his MAGAfkers. They're fighting to the death to at least make it close. Heart of a Loser.
Apparently now oann... trump is accusing the United States Postal Service of being a long time Democrat stronghold...
Trump is such a sad clown. I haven't seen much about how this is effecting Trump voters. Not the hard core MAGA cult but more average Republican voters. Are they embarrassed? Are they seeing the pattern of 4 years of lies now? Is there a social media movement among them to take back their party and to return to sane even compassionate conservatism? or is everything run by Russian disinformation? I read Max Boot, Andrew Sullivan and a couple of never Trumpers on Twitter but I am not aware of a mass movement.
...none of this is really about the Donald. ...he's a lightning rod, no doubt about that... ...(sort of explains that weird thing going on on top of his head that he thinks is hair)... ...but a large number of people in this country voted for this guy. Twice. ...this stuff has been in the air around this country for decades now. Racism. Nationalism. Nativism. Fascism. ...and a whole lot of people are afraid to call this what it is, because it's their drinking buddy or the girl they're trying to make it with who thinks and says these things. A house divided, indeed...
Things that make you go hmmmm... https://www.cbs46.com/news/lawmaker...cle_8404e930-35e5-11eb-8ac3-1fc96e3b52d8.html
How many times will Georgia have to count their ballots? Election results - count number 1 First recount - count number 2 Second recount- count number 3
Counting the same potentially fraudulent ballots does nothing. Signature authentication? Now we're getting somewhere
I think this rises to the level of actually warranting an official explanation. Given the amount of ****-slinging offered thus far from the legal team, I am pretty skeptical this is as it is being presented in the hearing.
Here's an article that counters the Trump legal team claims with quotes from Georgia election officials. https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/...der-a-table-after-poll-workers-dismissed.html The gist is that - 'Cutters' whose job were to cut open the envelopes and verify the ballots were dismissed after 10pm because they're not opening any more ballots. - These ballots must be counted that night since they were already open. - No one was asked to leave. Some observers just left following the cutters when the cutters left. - The 'Suitcases' are standard Georgia ballot storage bins. - It is not required that Republican observers must be present for the count. They are allowed to be present, but not required for a legal count. In another article that I cannot find right now, it names the guy in red shirt as the official monitor from the state election office.
I guess what will be disputed is whether the observers were ordered to leave or not. It is also claimed that there were no observers there, only some media outlets.
Signature was already verified as required by law. It's impossible to re-do that, also because of law. What the Trump lawyer is asking for is to ignore the law. Many of Trump's supporter do not understand that this ask is simply not possible because of GA law. Next time, maybe don't require secrecy sleeves for absentee/mail ballots (mostly a republican push) and instead use a different process to protect voter privacy. The reality of why Trump ask for this is because absentee ballots went mostly to Biden. If it was the other way around, maybe the Trump lawyer would ask for a redo/recount/recheck of in-person photo-id authentication, even though that's also impossible. Georgia recount signature-matching impossible despite demands from Trump, Republicans, says secretary of state | Fox News Ballot secrecy rules make signature-matching in a recount impossible
Until Trump's followers see Trump winning Georgia, and then having the SCOTUS certify that Detroit (#kraken!) is part of Georgia and invalidating ballots there too. Zero-D chess.
