Watch: Hundreds of Activists Gather for ‘Stop the Steal‘ Rally in Georgia https://breitbart.com/politics/2020/...ly-in-georgia/ via BreitbartNews
Big Rallies all over the Country. The proof pouring in is undeniable. Many more votes than needed. This was a LANDSLIDE!

Only a few hundreds? What happened to the million people from the last rally?

Also, since it's Trump, can I assume that the "hundreds" he's talking about is a dozen people or so?
 
Trump Tweets

President Trump has done many great things (biggest tax & regulation cuts in history, Space Force, rebuilding our military, fixing the V.A., the Wall), but perhaps the most important of all will be what he is doing now, exposing the massive corruption in our Electoral Process.

President Donald Trump supporters protesting the outcome of the 2020 election have a new and surprising opponent: the Republican Party.

A viral video of protesters, as well as posts on social media platform Parler, indicate that Trump supporters are looking to boycott the upcoming Georgia Senate runoff elections.

I say go for it, teach those naughty Republicans a lesson.
 
And he's still desperately trying:

US election: Michigan Republicans seek to delay vote certification

Yet, in the letter on Saturday, the Michigan Republican Party called for the full audit of votes in Wayne County, where the majority-black city of Detroit heavily leans Democrat.

The letter, signed by Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and Michigan Republican Party head Laura Cox, cited allegations of "irregularities" in the county, which have not been substantiated.

The Republican party destroying itself would be wonderful. Not that I want one party rule but it's pure cancer and hopefully if it's gone a party actually interested in governing will take its place

Someone should tell 'em they ain't got the guts to do it.

Someone else should tell them that if Republicans get less than 20% of the vote, they legally have to throw the election out and the Georgia Senate has to select the U.S. Senators.

(Really, I don't advocate the latter, since there's enough misinformation out there. But I see no ethical issue with double dog daring them to boycott.)

I honestly see some of these things that Trump writes, and truly wonder what's in his head. Lying, or crazy? That's a serious question for me. Even if he believes that there was voter fraud, which would not be a completely ridiculous allegation on its face, there's no way he could possibly believe it was a landslide. Well, there's one possible way. He could be insane.

That doesn't make sense. What difference does it make if the loser in an election receives 1 vote or a million? It's a runoff election. Doesn't just the candidate with the most votes win? You seem to be saying if the loser doesn't reach a certain threshold, the Georgia Senate decides?

Case dismissed.

Way too many precedents in law that would reject this including 150 years of elections where mail in ballots have been accepted.

This is completely a case of throwing the game board against the wall when it is obvious that you are losing.

Pre-schoolers do it. So do Republicans.

It doesn't have to make much sense, I figger. Never struck me that I had to make it sensible.

You do understand I was just talking about a lie for the easily duped, no?

It really is.

Georgia of all places didn't expect to flip. They had successfully suppressed the vote there for 230 years. Mail in voting really changed that. Now the bigots are realizing this means they lost the power to prevent people of color and the working poor from voting. That terrifies them.

For anyone that doesn't know, the Betty Trump Twitter account was a parody (they said so themself) that Trump supposedly replied to. I'm not sure that reply wasn't from a staff member. We should keep that in mind. And Trump can't say so without admitting he has a ghost Tweet writer.

The fact that Donald would know his sister's name isn't Betty would support that idea. But then again, Donald is crazy so....

I like how they are calling Kemp a RINO.

I mean, this is the guy who used his role as Secretary of State to suppress the votes of black people in order to get himself elected governor.

You can't get much more Republican than that.

Two PA GOP congressmen file suit to declare mail-in balloting unconstitutional.

So, where are our resident conservatives on this one. Hmmm? Anyone?

We are truly through the looking glass at this point. I think our societal problems go deeper than Trump himself. We have a sitting congressman who is perfectly disenfranchising his entire state in order to have a shot at getting his guy declared king president.

I don't mind recounts. I don't even mind losing candidates trying to make their case in court that they think something went wrong. However, some of these lawsuits, and this one in particular, seem to just be looking for a judge who will be willing to say that down is up and who cares about reality.

This is bad.

This is one of the times that being stupid might actually be a good thing for the country!

Oh, it's worse than bad and these GOP congressmen are too dense to figure that out. If Trump pulled this off, Congress would become totally irrelevant.
