"Trump calls for him to be declared the winner of the 2020 election and be reinstalled as president"




Trump calls for him to be declared the winner of the 2020 election and be reinstalled as president, or for there to be an immediate do-over of the presidential election.


Can’t wait to hear Republican politicians and candidates around the country get asked about this one. They can disagree with Trump and alienate him and their base, or they can continue to follow his mania right off the cliff. The midterms look better every day!

..new shows pales in comparison of TV viewership long ago. Hunded of millions watched on pre-cable/net news stations programs like Gunsmoke, MASH, Dallas and other major prime time shows. In fact, I'll dig it out but I think 100 million tuned into the final episode of MASH!

Per Wikipedia: The most watched non-Super Bowl broadcasts are the finale of M*A*S*H in 1983 (106 million viewers), Dallas's 1980 "Who Done It" episode (83.6 million), the 1993 series finale of Cheers (80.5 million), the February 23, 1994, broadcast of ladies' singles figure skating at the 1994 Winter Olympics (78.8 million), and the 1983 television film The Day After (76.7 million).[1][2]

Point is, too many media and right wingers think that tiny microcosm that Fox occupies is representative of the whole US population! Far from it, as way too much faith is put on the phony news and ill-informed "stars" of Fox. Phooey!

Unless it's a HUGE mob of thousands, in which case they could hardly do it by surprise and the military would be called in.

But I have no doubt that Trump, his circle of loyalists (from Congress to MAGA foot soldiers) plot and dream up ways of trying to take over the WH, or assassinate Dem leaders, etc.

Chain of Custody, which they talk about on almost every other procedural cop show, not to mention that a guy who grew up with a father who had probably security clearance like forever while he was a senator not to mention VP and he just turns his computers over to a pawn shop "computer repair" run by a blind guy? Oh, totally believable. Hunter Biden might not be a credit to his family, but I'm fairly sure he's not totally stupid.

Also worth mentioning, Hunter has no office in the government at all (not like the spawn of TFG). He hasn't gotten $2B from the Saudis.

And he "owned" the DoJ at the time, so their "investigation" was available for all folks who wanted to check it out. Faux news covered it, OAN, covered it and were shouting about some sort of Biden Crime Family pretty much non-stop from July on.

But since there was very little real evidence of anything other than he was a recovering addict who might have used his father's position as VP to network into executive consulting work he was otherwise qualified for over other equally qualified applicants.
As for that laptop anonymously dropped off at a mall computer repair kiosk across the country on the same day he was across the country - and never picked up - well, there was nothing actually identifying it to Hunter other than what might be cobbled together from public knowledge, LinkedIn, and Google, and possibly from a couple successful phishing efforts against former co-workers and targeted business email servers.
There was nothing criminal or shocking there.
