Dangerous and WRONG. I can totally get not liking Dems or Dem ideas but supporting a person who denies reality to a level that undermines basic democracy? Unfathomable.

The football was spiked almost 9 months ago when the election was certified through appropriate constitutional processes. 306-232 just like the one before.

Is it too late to do a goofy audit of Mondale's 1984 Minnesota EC votes?

The folks being held are, allegedly, scumbags. Maybe that's why nobody showed up?

Nearly all of the several dozen people in pretrial custody stemming from the Jan. 6 riot are charged either with assaulting police or with being parts of conspiracies aimed at blocking the certification of electoral votes. Pretrial detention for alleged rioters charged only with misdemeanors has been extraordinarily rare. One man was held for about six months on such charges, but he had previously served time in prison for attempted murder. Link

America's Farcemare.

The model is the problem. It is crap by design as has been described as nauseam. It deserves ridicule and scorn. Dumb but dangerous noise.

These awards shows and Trump rallies are remarkably similar. Cringe worthy and righteous in all aspects and about the last things I'd spend my time or attention on. Just icky and gross displays of yuck.

Now that we've done the fun little Nazi distraction dance, let's get back to what GW said: Bush in his remarks at the crash site of United Airlines Flight 93 drew a straight line between the 9/11 terrorists and the 1/6 terrorists. “We have seen growing evidence that the dangers to our country can come not only across borders but from violence that gathers within,” he said. “There is little cultural overlap between violent extremists abroad and violent extremists at home. But in their disdain for pluralism, in their disregard for human life, in their determination to defile national symbols, they are children of the same foul spirit." He added, "It is our continuing duty to confront them.”

Sure. That's also an example. It seems to have found a forever home and in a more virulent form in today's GOP. I'm not a political fan boy and refuse to excuse HRCs behavior. There's a lot of it going around. People who crap on election integrity and support those who do so are the suck in my opinion. I don't want to pollute the thread with this tangent.

I think that people who purposefully engage in sowing doubt in election integrity without merit for political gain are not true Americans.

Was listening to some Floyd reading this thread. Seemed spot on. The bolded especially. I swear some folks, even in September 2021 a full 9 months after the election has been certified, are wishcasting to find fault in our systems. You're nearly a good laugh Almost a joker With your head down in the pig bin Saying, "Keep on digging" Pig stain on your fat chin What do you hope to find? Down in the pig mine … You're nearly a laugh You're nearly a laugh But you're really a cry

I find the unveiled delegitimizing of an election purposefully designed to sow doubt in the election process to be terrifying and unworthy of any support by true Americans Add in a more aggressive lean towards gerrymandering and gross voting restrictions. Yikes! Who wants that? Talk about authoritarian. I guess we're in a choose your own KOOk adventure.

I thought our 2nd Amendment had something to do with a well regulated militia. I strongly support the 2nd and I get the point but I think the post above mine is taking too many liberties with history. Nobody is coming for your guns or my guns as a precursor to autocratic rule. I think that kind of 'what if' language is a bit inflammatory.

Which makes 5 straight years of Americans feeling this way about our President. We deserve better for sure. I'm no fan of political parties but I sure hope they start figuring out how to present competent candidates soon. Obama or GHWB sure look super palletable about now. We're on a half decade slide up top.
