It's a good thing Trump and his band of traitors suck at fascism.

When you attempt to over throw an election it is best to do it before the votes are counted. After the votes are counted it's too late. What a bunch of dumb fucks.

All these fascists were living in strange reality where they thought they could openly steal the election after the votes were counted. They acted like they could get away with it easily, they believed they were untouchable. Of course we can do this , no problem. It's legal under the constitution, lawyers are telling us this is legal.

Now many of these dumb fucks are going to be indicted and convicted.

However, beware the 'dark monies' of thiel, et al.

Dark Money may be a significant source of trumpers' 'confidence'.

We can give tours of the capital the day before our attack on the capital, it doesn't matter the capital is closed too tours. Nobody will notice.

Let us pretend we are the real electors by signing our names to official documents and send them to congress and the archives.

We can use outlawed terrorist organizations to spearhead our attack on the capital. We can hang out with them in public view in the days before the attack, no problem.

We can use text messages, e-mails, and phone calls as we plan our coup attempt, it's safe.

We can appear on TV and admit we attempted a coup, it's OK, it's legal because we named it the Green Bay Sweep.

Dumb Fucks all of them.

They had two years of relatively clear sailing at the start of Trump's presidency...all Repug controlled. Had they had their act together, and really believed the rhetoric they had been espousing during Obama's presidency, they could have repealed the ACA and done a lot of other damage had they had a real legislative agenda coordinated with the WH. A bit like the Russian military, the war games videos looked good but when it came to really doing anything, they tripped on their own shoelaces. The real lingering issue is the judges Trump was able to install and that lingering evil cannot be undone legislatively to a large degree.
