    Nope. Nothing in Pelosi's statement implies she denies Trump was legally elected as POTUS.

    Y'know, it's really all our fault FF drinks all the conspiracy Kool-Aid, if we'd only pat him on he head, constantly, non stop, and said he was a good boy until our throats bled, he would have been okay.
    Course, the fact the rest of us don't get treated like pampered lapdogs, and manage not to become extremist whackos, that has to be ignored for this narrative to work, but hey.

    The difference of course being that the entire US intelligence community, that of all of our allies, and the US Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and the Mueller report all state factually that Russia helped Trump win.

    As does Russia now.

    You have to be a real idiot not to understand the difference. You might want to think about that - you have already used up any leeway you have there.

    Back in reality, Boebert's opponent conceded today.

    And oil prices have dropped more than $10 a barrel since the election.

    Was Jamie Raskin talking about the whole entire intelligence community when he moved to not count the votes for Trump?

    Nope, just objective reality. And of course no one seconded the motion, so it had no impact whatsoever. Biden presiding over the Senate continued on and not a single vote was ultimately contested.

    It was explicitly parliamentary procedure.

    Oh, they didn't mention that in the bullshit right wing website you uncritically took the information from? What a surprise.

    Did Raskin ultimately vote for certification? Is that more, or less, than the 147 GOP members that voted against certification?

    Did Clinton concede for the good of the country to ensure that the peaceful transition of power took place?

    Contrast that with thousands of people attacking the Joint Session while the President stands down the DC National Guard and tweets to his followers while they are in the building that the Vice President overseeing the election had failed in his constitutional duty and was responsible for fraud.

    Hence the chants of 'Hang Mike Pence' and they came with a gallows they erected outside.

    One of these things is not like the other. No matter how much you whine or prevaricate.

    Great news everyone, "America's Crime Crisis" (trademark Fox News) is over!
    All it took was Election Day eliminating the perceived political benefit of talking about crime all the time, go figure.

    All of the "election deniers" that lost conceded their elections without any major problems. Sensational mainstream media outlets won't tell you that though.

    Yeah, but I don’t watch MSNBC so I just assumed that they wouldn’t bring this up, thus not a lie because a lie requires intent.

    So your defence against being called a liar is to plead idiocy?

    I mean, there isn't a jury in the land that wouldn't buy that plea, but still...

    Would you rather be called ignorant or a liar?

    I'd rather be called neither, hence why I tell the truth most of the time, don't tell obvious lies when I don't tell the truth, and I bother to fucking educate myself before chipping in.

    Depends, did you make up the false statement in your own dumb head, or did you pass it on from one of your echo-chamber puppets?
    If the latter, it becomes a lie even if you passed it along unwittingly.

    I assumed any good news about Trump supporters would be suppressed because MSNBC is the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party.

    Anyway, the point being that this wasn’t the doomsday scenario that the media predicted.
