About all those elections that were stolen?
It's been over a year since Biden was sworn into office and we are still hearing the Big Lie about how the election was stolen but no one has shown any evidence. They have had plenty of time to find out the facts and present them to the American public if they were serious about it. But we have seen nothing.
What could possibly be the reason they have not found the evidence of cheating in the last election? The only evidence we have seen about rigging an election shows it was these same people, not the Democrats?
How long can they ride this dead horse?
How long until their supporters open their eyes?

That is the TDFG's total case in a nutshell.

(1,328 posts)As head of ANTIFA I realized it was my duty to obtain and sequester all of the evidence that supports the big lie. Soon I will be transferring it all to the secret bunker below the pizza parlor in Washington DC. After that, with time on my hands, I will resume my role as Q and begin elucidating the links between the deep state, Venusian laser attack forces, and the secret romance between Sarah Palins daughter and Don Jrsoon to be sanctified in a service officiated by JFK (Sr, not Jr).

(21,440 posts)here in Pa. the Repubs just eliminated mail in voting without an excuse, waiting for it to be appealed to the state supreme court. Repubs also submitted their new gerrymandered districts which our governor has vetoed. The Big Lie gave them all an excuse to cheat.
It should have been shut down by DOJ in the beginning, I'm talking about the Cyber Ninjas. I see that this phony company is defying a court order to turn over its documents dealing with the fraudit. They don't give a shit, don't care about the 50k/day fine imposed on them, they will not be held accountable because they never were a real company and DOJ allowed them access to ballots, voter information, election materials and equipment.
Not only that, by allowing these fraudits to spread across the country GOPers are purging honest election officials and replacing them with Magats.
An autocratic dictatorship will not be pretty.
Look what the hell they did in Nashville. A bedrock Democratic Congressman, Jim Cooper, who has always been elected in landslides is retiring because they carved up his Nashville district and extended it into Magat country. He is retiring because he says he can't win now.
The Big Lie worked, is still working.

(10,273 posts)They all hold the idea if they say its so, it must be so, without evidence. TFG has been operating that way for a long time. I was surprised for awhile when the whole party fell in line, but not any more. They have no scruples or conscience. All they care about is holding power, now they are too deep to turn back.

Some cases were dismissed for lack of standing and others based on the merits of the voter fraud allegations. The decisions have came from both Democratic-appointed and Republican-appointed judges including federal judges appointed by Trump.
Doesn't matter. I sent this to a repub relative, college-educated, works in accounting, & the response was, "Well if those decisions had gone the other way, he would have won." Do they even listen to themselves?

(2,576 posts)time letting all these characters come on their shows and spew their lies unchallenged and even officially, like Fox, promoting the lie.
PBS and NPR gave them serious credibility and time. Both venues are now a national embarrassment.

(6,230 posts)All they need to do is keep making sounds that give their base the idea that the horse is still alive. Real evidence of a living horse is not needed.
Given the absolute determination of their base to keep their eyes firmly closed, the Republican bet is that their base will keep cheering on the dead horse at least thru the 2022 elections, and even maybe thru 2024.
It matters little that the long dead horse is beginning to stink up the place. It's the illusion of life that they desperately cling to. So far it's working.
