67. Don't worry about it

Wed Aug 7, 2024, 09:45 PM

Aug 2024

We can win all 50 states and Mr Trump will still cry foul.

He never learned how to lose, much less lose graciously. He is the sorest, weirdest loser there ever was imho

A better question is what happens if Mr. Trump throws a tantrum and Americans just shrug and go about their business ?

I ask this because that is what happened repeatedly during Mr. Trump’s trial by a jury of his peers in a Manhattan courtroom. Mr. Trump begged his fans to come and “protest”. A handful showed. No violence occurred.

If you are concerned about his lawyers, donate to Marc Elias or the ABA. Both will be on duty to protect our votes from him in court. A blowout would certainly deflate Mr Trump’s effort to steal the election.

What we need is a win robust enough that it can't be overturned in one (or preferably two) states. D23MIURG23 Aug 2024 #12

Yes agalisgv Aug 2024 #13

Unforunately,... Think. Again. Aug 2024 #36

They'll try that, but I think it can be stopped. D23MIURG23 Aug 2024 #39

The only thing that stopped it last time was pence covering his own ass. Think. Again. Aug 2024 #42

Nope. Think. Again. Aug 2024 #61

It wasn't just Pence, it was a lot of people who resisted Trump. D23MIURG23 Aug 2024 #54

It was only pence who's decision stopped it all. Think. Again. Aug 2024 #60

Well, Harris will have Pence's role wrt certification, so if your theory is that only the VP matters, then no worries. D23MIURG23 Aug 2024 #62

That isn't my theory at all, I don't know why you would think that... Think. Again. Aug 2024 #63

Then why is it that only Pence matters and not all the other people who resisted? D23MIURG23 Aug 2024 #64

As I mentioned, it was only pence's decision to certify that stopped the last coup. Think. Again. Aug 2024 #66

Incorrect. D23MIURG23 Aug 2024 #68

Like in 2000? orthoclad Aug 2024 #49
