I know you admit to knowing little but on a positive note living in this conspiracy, fantasy land is refreshing laugh. I'm not really trying to create conspiracy or fantasy, I am trying to make sense of what is, to me as an outsider, a very confusing situation. Mr Trump is throwing lawsuits around like a confetti canon. He keeps demanding recounts. He (or at least his advisers) must be aware that he really hasn't got the slightest chance of changing the outcome of the election through the courts or recounts. Why is he doing it? The only realistic outcome may be to delay or interfere with the Electoral College process. Now why do that? Is he just being spiteful, acting as the "dog in the manger", or does he, or his advisers, think that they may be able to influence the outcome of a disrupted Electoral College vote? I ask because I honestly don't know if that is possible, some things I have read hint that it is. You tell us that the Supreme Court has ruled on this already this year - could you either summarise or give me a link - I don't doubt you but I would like to know more!

I reckon the vast majority of Americans don't understand all the complexities of this either. That's because these issues are very arcane and basically have nothing to do with any kind of normal election and normal transition of power. But because of the nature of Mr. Trump and his bizarre actions in the wake of obviously losing this election, all of his possible angles are worth considering. This article covers a lot of that territory and certainly should not been as encouraging to fans of Mr. Trump. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/nov/11/can-donald-trump-stay-in-office-second-term-president-coup Quote Can Trump actually stage a coup and stay in office for a second term?

Popular Post Silurian Posted November 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2020 Attention MAGA folks! This is how it is done. Even though their elections have yet to be certified, new members of Congress get to attend orientation and start to setup their offices/staff. Do you get it? Do you understand? There is absolutely no reason to withhold the same courtesies to the Biden team. Incoming lawmakers will attend orientation for new House members Quote New member orientation is a tradition that allows incoming lawmakers, fresh off securing seats in Congress, to learn more about what's to come as they prepare to take office. A second orientation session will take place later in the month. Before they officially start their terms, members will need to set up and organize their offices, including hiring staff. And they'll need to learn the ropes and get up to speed on how the House operates. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placeholder Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 It is to laugh: Trump bureaucrat blocking Biden transition team is job hunting Emily Murphy, the General Services Administrator, apparently sees the writing on the wall, despite her head-in-the-sand effort to curry favor with Trump by denying the reality of Biden’s win.

Now which Biden do you believe ? He did do that in response to a question which did say certified but it's irrelevant. On reflection it was kind of a trick question. Presidential candidates always declare victory after the elections are called by the media, well before certification. Joe Biden did win and he is the president elect. I believe in NUMBERS.

It's not even close. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virt Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Trump only has himself to blaim. If he handled the Corona virus a bit better he would have won again without problems. Just sad that the Americans now have to deal with a president that most likely have to give up the seat within 4 years, so I hope Harris is the right choice. Personally I think it should have been a choice between Pence and Harris. Both seems more suited for the job than Trump/Biden. In the meantime it will be interesting to ser what a Trump do the next few months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post polpott Posted November 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2020 On 11/10/2020 at 11:15 PM, TopDeadSenter said: Trump being declared the winner after all legal votes are counted would stop it. Just about all legal votes have now been counted and Biden has won 306 electoral votes. Trump has won 232. As an aside, Biden also won the popular vote by 5.5 million. The most contentious state, Georgia, has now completed it's recount and audit and the republican secretary of state for Georgia has declared Biden the winner by 12 thousand votes and will certify his victory today. On which planet could Trump declare himself the winner? Planet Covfefe? Both you and Trump need to get over the fact that he lost and show some humility for the good of the American people. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
