edit to add:

You’d think the Arizona GOP would also want to go back to Flake, McCain, and Romney — you know, Republicans that actually won elections in Arizona. But I guess they’re happier with Sinema, Kelly, and Biden? https://t.co/LvVuZybfaD

This is what the Framers thought about the first guy who crossed the Rubicon.

They despised him.

My full report on an extraordinary call this morning... McConnell said his Jan. 6 vote certifying Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 election will be "the most consequential I have ever cast" - more consequential than votes on wars and impeachment. https://t.co/0gPwybabuY

Ghislaine ask for extension

Ghislaine ask for extension so Trump has time to pardon her. Maybe if Epstein really is alive, Trump will pardon them all. More popcorn, please - to keeps coming.

TFW someone whose client has pics of the President with said client and a pedophile asks for an extension until after any pardon would be forthcoming. https://t.co/l2yGtlufrg

Trump lawyer attacks Chief Justice and accuses him of taking out Scalia - and says Jeffrey Epstein's alive! If you predicted that on Trump Admin bingo, give yourself a shot

Look up Roger Stone's "Brooks Brothers Revolt". They literally stormed a vote counting facility and got away with it. You can question the hanging chad stuff, but there's also Florida knocking voters off the rolls. Of course this was 1 state, not 3 very tight surprise states like Hillary confronted (actually a 4th, MN, barely went her way rather than the much safer margin). The Supreme Court decision is a mess. No good investigation of the voting machine company either. And then they acted like they had a huge mandate. Total dick Karl Rove & Dick Cheney moves.

Back during the 2000s, it was popular sentiment among liberals that George W. Bush didn't legitimately win the election. No one ever did anything to change it and you saw W and McCain both became friends of liberals during the Obama years, but the sentiment seems to be a recurringly popular one. People don't like the Electoral College system, or the way power is distributed in the senate, or having to share so much power with people on the other side of the country who run their affairs very differently, and they're not given any chance to say they want to change it the way that, say, British voters were able to vote for Brexit. So the whole system feels a bit dictatorial for all sorts of people and conspiracies and anger serve as explanations for it.
