  • – Now that Donald Trump’s “Million MAGA March” only has a few thousand people at it, he’ll probably demand a recount of that too.

    Lets not forget that over 70,000,000 Americans still voted for him - after experiencing him for 4 years. Almost unbelievable. 

  • Trump golfs and stirs up hatred whilst Americans die in their thousands. Some weird sort of legacy!

Possibly be a long wait given Bloomberg's run for Democrat nomination.

Research media holdings, conflict of interest and holders of political office!

See the post above yours, how about Bloomberg?

 

I think you're wrong, and I'm not going to do the research for you. You make the claim, please substantiate it.

Yeah, like a transition to a Gore presidency would have been a big deal.  All they would have done is move a little furniture.

If you're thinking of a career as a lawyer, don't give up your day job. GSA would be obliged to wait on court decision.

The President and vice-President are the sole Federal officers exempt from conflict of interest rules.

Why conflict of interest rules apply differently to the president

 

Rep. David McKinley has sold his West Virginia engineering and architecture firm, but it still bears his name — and that earned the Republican congressman a rebuke from the House Ethics Committee.

President-elect Donald Trump has built an international property management, real estate and branding business around his name. There appears to be no consequence for that.

Please provide proof. That's how this works.

Unless you are Trump or one of his fans, then you can claim voter fraud with zero proof.

Where does your link mention "media" interest ? It only covers "Business"!

Happened in 2000.  Nobody conceded for 37 days while it went through the courts.  We're not even close to 37 days yet.

 

For a very different reason. One state couldn't be called (Florida) and whoever won the state would win the presidency, only a few hundred votes in it. Revolved around chads and was regarded as shambolic at the time.

 

No state was anywhere near as close as that this time and reversing the results of one state would not reverse the outcome.

 

Even though the result of some states was closer last time than this and the winner won exactly the same number of EC seats as this time, Clinton conceded on election night. Trump can say what he wants about "Crooked Hilary" but at least she lost with good grace and didn't drag American democracy through the mud for weeks.

And why would it be?

If Trump can prove wide spread conspiracy and it is sent to the House, than the house must vote on a state by state counting with each state counting as 1 vote so there are a lot more red states than blue. So Trump wins.

Well, tell Michael Bloomberg his media interests aren't a business.

Anyway, here's a more scholarly article.

Nothing about media there. Why do you persist in pursuing this without providing some definitive support?  Should be easy enough to do a search to back up your claims.

But he can't. No widespread conspiracy. Trump's lawyers have been working on this for months before the election and have since brought at least 10 legal challenges to the results in various states. All have been thrown out due to zero evidence. The lawyers are now severely embarrassed and damaging their own reputations so are deserting the Trump cause like rats leaving a sinking ship.

I'd remind you that there's no proof Jimmy Hoffa was murdered, either.

 

I'm not a fan of The Donald.  Never have been.  But I want to be 100% sure there was no flaw in the election mechanics, whether that be fraud, negligence, software glitch, hardware fault, hanging chads, or any other.  Which is why I'm glad they're doing a hand recount in Georgia.  If only to assure the country that there was no such issue and the results we got are reflective of the votes of the people.   And if they do find flaws in the Georgia recount, it opens up Pandora's Box in all the states that used the same machinery. 

 

If that takes time, so be it.  The guy's still president until January- either way.  Leaving plenty of time for a transition, even if he waits (like Gore did) for the Supreme Court decision.

So if the Georgia recount comes back as no fraud, you will accept the result from all states and declare Biden the winner? Somehow I doubt it.

 

Why haven't you demanded a recount of all states at every election? What's the difference this time? Let me answer that, the man child's petulant inability to accept the result, which is....he lost.

What's the difference this time?  Technology and standardization.  I'll let you Google why that comes into play more than ever.    

 

The results of the election don't hang on what you or I think.  Just my own confidence in the process.  And I'm sure I'm not the only one.

 

Nice finish, doing the personal name calling thingy.  Really hammers home your position.  Just not your credibility.

It didn't.  But the transition to a Bush presidency didn't start until the court case was decided.  Kind like 2020.

 

Let's see what happens after the Georgia hand recount...

 

Regardless of the Georgia hand recount (which Trump is already claiming is a scam  https://www.savannahnow.com/news/20201115/georgia-hand-recount-live-blog-updates-from-day-3-of-presidential-election-recount) Biden has more than enough electoral college votes to win.

Once again. Georgia isn't definitive and it wouldn't change the results.  That's true.  But if the Georgia hand count shows systemic problems, do you figure they'd be limited to Georgia?

Over to you and other trump supporters to now wait for the outcome rather than repeating trump propaganda without any empirical evidence whatsoever. In the meantime trump continue on his campaign to try and destroy the Biden administration. trump repeatedly demonstrates he is not worthy to represent the Office of the President of the USA In the next mid term elections one hopes his disgraceful GOP enabler majority in the Senate are removed to get US back on tract to the "shining city upon a hill". Not a country governed by a man consumed by destructive, divisive grievances.

It is extremely unlikely that Georgia, with its Republican, pro-Trump government, will show any kind of "systemic problems" other than a tendency to disenfranchise minority voters. 

 

However since Trump has already started calling the recount a scam, the result won't be definitive for Trump and his supporters unless it over-turns the results of the original count.  This is also extremely unlikely.

Because it's a sure thing that once Biden's victory is certified the vast majority of those crying foul or potential foul will be satisfied? And all the media that they get their information from like OAN, Gateway Pundit, Epoch Times, they will all accept the results and no longer feature tendentious articles alleging fraud?

There is going to have to be a full-scale housecleaning of the GOP to eliminate all traces of the orange rot.  It is going to be in every Republican politician's interest to see this guy face criminal charges or go into exile.

Georgia’s secretary of state says Lindsey Graham suggested he throw out legal ballots

The Georgia secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, has said that Senator Lindsey Graham asked whether it was possible to invalidate legally cast ballots after Donald Trump was narrowly defeated in the state.
 

In an interview with the Washington Post, Raffensperger said Graham, the chairman of the Senate judiciary committee, questioned him about the state’s signature-matching law and asked whether political bias might have played a role in counties where poll workers accepted higher rates of mismatched signatures. According to Raffensperger, Graham then asked whether he had the authority to toss out all mail-in ballots in these counties.
