What is wrong with just letting the system play out as designed?
States certify their votes.
Plaintiffs file challenges.
Courts decide.
This handing over of authority to twitter, facebook, fox and CNN is frankly pretty freaky.
Are you OK with that?

Its handing over zero authority to them. They are all organizations making their own choices. What they chose to do have no legal consequences. However, at least in this case, Twitter is recognizing reality unlike Trump and, seemingly, many of his minions.Mark Leavy wrote: ↑Fri Nov 20, 2020 11:41 pmWhat is wrong with just letting the system play out as designed?

Re: Twitter will hand @POTUS to Biden on Inauguration Day, even if Trump doesn’t concede
The thing is Trump is not just letting this play out. He is actively trying whatever he can do to disenfranchise voters and undermine our democracy while at the same time shrieking fraud. It's mind boggling and frankly extremely freaky. The latest being the Michigan lawmakers that he flew down to Whitehouse to try to overturn Bidens 150k lead in that state. Thank goodness our system seems to be holding up to the pressure of this 800 pound whiny autocratic gorilla. Fu** Trump and anyone who supports what he is doing.Mark Leavy wrote: ↑Fri Nov 20, 2020 11:41 pmWhat is wrong with just letting the system play out as designed?

How that happens is of no interest to him, because he has no principles.
Re: Twitter will hand @POTUS to Biden on Inauguration Day, even if Trump doesn’t concede
If a democrat were doing this same thing... all these Trump supporters would be freaking out and ready to go to war because their democracy was being threatened. It's ok if the democracy is threatened... as long as it's your guy doing the threatening. I call hypocrisy. I'm all for the courts doing their thing... but here's the thing. The courts HAVE ALREADY done their thing. They've already booted most of the cases out for "lack of evidence". Let us not forget, Trump has not actually submitted a single lawsuit alleging fraud. Why are his lawsuits in the court not matching his speech outside court? Why does he have to try to convince local lawmakers to go against the will of their constituents and give him electors he did not win if the courts were going to rule in favor of him? The hypocrisy and delusion on the "right" these days is ridiculous.doodle wrote: ↑Sat Nov 21, 2020 8:46 amThe thing is Trump is not just letting this play out.

I know it's a waste of time to argue with crazies, but...
Please point me to where in the Constitution it says that the election is decided not by the Electoral College, but by Twitter.

Re: Twitter will hand @POTUS to Biden on Inauguration Day, even if Trump doesn’t concede
The issue I have with supporters of Trump here and elsewhere, is that, assuming, on Dec 14th, the electoral college affirms Biden, it just won't be over.
It will never be over, will it? The election will have been stolen in perpetuity, even if lawyers and judges for years continue to find nothing substantial, right?
That is what is illogical. Religious level. Messiah level. Kool Aid Jim Jones level.

Re: Twitter will hand @POTUS to Biden on Inauguration Day, even if Trump doesn’t concede
do you honestly expect the dems to act any differently if the court finds that there is enough cheating to warrant declaring trump the winner?
I don't...
and they have said as much themselves..

Re: Twitter will hand @POTUS to Biden on Inauguration Day, even if Trump doesn’t concede
Not at all. I am just asking if there will ever come a time that Trump supporters will, at least, resign themselves to the likelihood that he lost?
If not, we'll never do any healing.
And tech's premonition of a Trump win splitting the dems into a far left and more moderate faction will come true -- but for the republicans instead -- with a far right Trump party splitting the vote with a more moderate republican party.
And that will be the end of republicans winning the presidency for likely a long time.

Show us the motherfuc*** money then! Not insane press conferences with gibberish spouting yahoos making wild allegations! Show some goddamn proof! Georgia just finished a damn hand recount for Christ sakes. The courts have tossed out every lawsuit. You keep repeating the same tired theories without evidence.
Re: Twitter will hand @POTUS to Biden on Inauguration Day, even if Trump doesn’t concede
Did the left wing media mount an endless campaign to discredit and destroy Trump? Yep they did. Just like Carlson and Hannity and Limbaugh and Beck did every day with Obama. Did it affect Trump's relection chances, yes it did probably. Was the election fraudently stolen? No court has seen enough evidence with regards to any of those allegations to even hear a case.
Trump got beaten at his own game and he's sour. Let him pout. Stop defending this whiny puss-boy
