Trump is *still* trying to get states to overturn their 2020 election results

[Inmate Trump]

Wisconsin official says Trump phoned him last week to pressure him to change election results

Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos on Tuesday said former president Donald Trump is still pressuring him to purportedly rescind the Badger State’s 2020 electoral votes, even though there is no legal way to do so and no ground to even consider such an action.

"I explained that it's not allowed under the Constitution, he has a different opinion."

Somebody get this baby a pacifier.

He needs to be sent to a mental hospital, truly.

"I explained that it's not allowed under the Constitution, he has a different opinion."

Trump's idea of a constitution is that he always gets what he wants

[GeneralMacArthur]

What does Trump think is gonna happen here, Wisconsin throws out its electoral votes and then Biden says "oh sorry, looks like I'm not president anymore" and leaves?

[Progressive Pessimist]

Why the f*** does he even want to be President right now!? Is his ego just that uncontrollable? Does he really want to deal with all the s*** Biden is right now?

[emailking]

He's doing this because of the court ruling that drop boxes are illegal in Wisconsin. But that decision was not retroactive. Not that there's any reason to believe Trump would have won WI if they didn't use drop boxes.

He wants to kill the DOJ investigation.

Wow! He gets more and more delusional by the day.

Investigations into the entire conduct of the 2020 elections need to continue, period.

People truly secure in the belief that their side has nothing to hide shouldn't have a problem with this.  They shouldn't be worried about full exposure as to the role of social media, Zuckerbucks affecting elections, the truth behind vote counts that stopped, etc.

Imagine if Republicans put as much effort into losing weight as they do into stealing elections.

Apparently one of his batsh!t lawyers claims if enough states do this then if Congress was under Republican control in 2023 they could rescind their electoral vote counting vote to certify and reinstate Trump.

Absolutely hilarious.

No. No more wasting time or resources on this chicanery. Recounts were conducted as was necessary and there was an audit of Maricopa County’s results. The election was safe and secure and it has been established by more than enough credible sources that Biden won. If more money is going to be wasted on this pointless nonsense, it better come from the pocket of Trump and his bozos. If you, for instance, are so passionate about wasting more money on this pointless exercise, be prepared to fund it yourself with all your Big Lie believing pals - I don’t want another dime in taxpayer dollars going in trying to appease you or prove to you what is evidently obvious but which you (obstinate as a mule) refuse to accept, in favour of the word of pathological liars.


2000 had a host of legitimate questions, yet you didn’t see any of Gore’s supporters behave in this undignified and unbecoming way, or still be hung up about the election over 18 months later. Find something better to do than this.

Here's a question that a lot of people aren't considering: What's going to happen if Trump does in fact run, and does not win the nomination? The question is mostly aimed at Republicans who think he'll run but think somebody else will win--do you honestly think, with his behavior, that he'll quietly step aside and endorse his former opponent?

It's especially notable because Trump's obsession with this is not because his ideology lost, but because he feels he was personally dealt an injustice--he did the same thing when he didn't win an Emmy.

Bill Barr said the election was legitimate and the stolen stuff was “bullish!t.” Ivanka said she believed him.

Are they lying? Why hasn’t your side presented any evidence whatsoever that would indicate a stolen election? Why did your side get rejected in court 60+ times? How many recounts will satisfy you?

Trump also said the GA Republican primary for governor was rigged. This is clearly something he does when he loses. You’re echoing buffoonery.

That would be interesting, and it would certainly be a possibliity.  

I hope Trump does not run in 2024, not because I don't want him to be President again, but because of my beliefs that (A) America does not need the inevitable response that the Left and the Establishment will provide and (B) I consider it to be essential that there be a Republican victory of great magnitude not only in the Presidential race, but in both Houses of Congress, to undue what I consider the gross damage that the Biden Administration has (and will do) to America.  I have never in my life spoken this way, and I didn't think that the Biden Administration would be the disaster it has been, but Biden has manage to damage America socially, militarily, and in its standing in the World in ways I never dreamed of, and no other Democrat proposes to undo the damage.  I don't want Trump to get in the way of a Republican who believes in what Trump believes in getting elected.

But I don't think it's a sure thing that Trump will win in 2024.

Whaaat? These talking points really get tiresome. Why can't some people just not get over this debunked conspiracy, admit defeat in the 2020 election not look for the next election?

There have been 60 lawsuits in several states, that were thrown out by one judge after another, including Trump appointees. Bill Barr stated the election was not rigged, as did multiple other Trump Admin officials. If Dems really had the power to rig anything, why didn't Biden by more as he was supposed to and why didn't Dems win larger majorities in congress?

The truth can sometimes hurt.

Obviously his ego is that uncontrollable. And, he wouldn't be dealing with sh** Biden is dealing with, he would be preening in front of his mirror, another "con" accomplished! And having pep rallies where he can preen and lie some more. The GOP unleashed Trump, not only on an unsuspecting country, but also on an unsuspecting world and we are still trying to get rid of him. Thanks GOP.

Garland already said yesterday that he is criminally investigated Trump so that said we should not be worried even if Trump gets elected in 24 which he won't it's a 303 map, but he will be a LAME DUCK, like he would of been if he was reelection, what can he really do as a Lame Duck nothing just like Bush W, Clinton and Obama didn't get much done as Lame Ducks, as soon as Obama got reelected Rs took the S and stalled his agenda

That's why McConnell said he wanted Obama to be a  1 term Prez as soon as he got reelected he blocked Merrick Garland he was a Lame Duck, do you know why we have Lame Duck Prez because it should be 1 6 yr term not 2 4yr terms, that would eliminate the whole theft of election

Fuzzy has no answer for any of that.

He has no answer for why, if it was rigged, Democrats didn’t win larger majorities in Congress rather than a razor slim majority. He has no rebuttal for Trump-appointed judges throwing out bogus election claims. He has no response for Bill Barr saying the election wasn’t rigged and Ivanka stating she believes Barr.

The only thing he has is insecurity and blind religious faith in the word of narcissist.

Imagine being this detached from reality. It’s funny because this could refer to the former president or certain posters in this thread.

One thing I find particularly funny (in a bleak sort of way), is how no one on the right - not the politicians who got elected in 2020, nor their supporters - in any way suggests that the election of any Republicans was fraudulent, even as they insist the elections that got them into office were completely illegitimate. Doubtless they have some sort of head-canon for why if they're pushed, but if they were questioning results in good faith (I know, they're not), it would seem to be a key point.

Which, I suppose, just highlights some of the sickest and most disturbing things about the Trump-GOP: the shameless rejection of any sort of objective standard, and utter lack of self-awareness. I understand that it is part of their core ideology: "conservatives" reflexively reject the golden rule, and want to be personally immune from consequences and rules, while controlling everyone else.  And they simultaneously are utterly incapable of recognizing their own gross hypocrisy.
