Ok, so you do acknowledge that even though an act is not well planned, it is still an act, right? But, you don’t think Jan 6 was an insurrection because it wasn’t successful. Are you seriously arguing that if Republican really wanted an insurrection they would have been successful? Please tell me you are not that fucking stupid.
If I’m on the worst end of the spectrum of biases then why am I the only one here pointing out that the party that claims to be the defenders of democracy are making efforts to undermine democracy? Nobody else does this. Nobody else criticizes the Democrats, it’s all focused on the Republicans and Trump. Don’t you think that the other Americans on this board are are on the other worst end of the spectrum? Why only focus on me?
I'm sure they would argue the Dems weren't the government until the electors were recognized, so stopping that prevented Biden from becoming POTUS and so it wasn't an attempt to overthrow him, because Trump was still in charge. I don't think even you would be so idiotic as to argue that, would you? I mean, I'm prepared to be wrong. You've consistently managed to be more stupid than anyone possibly could be, except the Trumpers and Dayton. But still. If you AREN'T that stupid, let's hear your reasoning as to what they WERE up to.
No difference at all. There was not actual dispute or confusion about who won the election. It was not Trump. The Constitution specifies that a president’s term ends on January 20th unless they’ve been reelected. Trump was not reelected. Attempting to keep Trump in power after January 20th by any extralegal means at that point is unconstitutional. Trying to have an unconstitutional president is overthrowing the government. No different than if mobs had gone to the statehouses and forced, or tried to force, the electoral college to vote for Trump at gunpoint. Why should they bother? It’s harder to prove the elements of the technical definition of the crime, and wouldn’t make a practical difference in sentencing, for most of them. Seditious conspiracy for the ringleaders is just as good.
Maybe the Republicans and Trump are the far greater, noisier threat to democracy right now, and you don't worry about the donkey looting your prized DVD collection when elephants openly want to burn the rest of your house down? Maybe if you posted less random-looking Youtube videos and more concrete analyses like your audience here does, that criticize Democrats or liberals on grounds that your audience here will find worthwhile, and don't follow half of them up with "and so this two-minute minor penalty proves that the DNC is entirely corrupt and BIDEN MUST GO" thus triggering a "nuh-uh" reflex, you'll appeal to this specific audience more. And I distinctly remember celebrating when that Mcwhatserface loser got voted right back out after she and the Democratic Party gamed the Republican primary so she could run against a guy who thinks women can wish away pregnancies, and then when she was in office sent voters bulky envelopes professing to be Very Concerned about the integrity of our democracy. Not entirely sure what you're trying to say, but there are several noted far-left posters getting dragged in the Palestine/Israel thread.
Liz Cheney, making the rounds promoting her book, summed up my feelings: "My view is, I disagree with a lot of Joe Biden's policies. We can survive bad policies. We can not survive torching the constitution. It's not even the same level." The red hats try to deflect and say that people dislike Biff because "orange man bad" but he really is. He's always been scum, long before he decided to try this con of running for president. If someone sees Biden as somehow being a worse person than Mr. Kicks, then there's something very wrong with them.
BTW, "Mr. Kicks" Permit me to introduce myself, the name is Mister Kicks I dwell in a dark dominian way down by the river Styx The devil has sent me here because I'm full of wicked tricks And I'm such a popular fellow among all you lunatics I teach a course in ruination from the devil's text For fools who can't withstand temptation, Step right up you're next I hail from a hollow hell hole down around the river Styx Allow me to introduce myself the name is Mister Kicks And a case where I like this cover more than the original.
Oh sweet Jesus, please don’t me let die from dehydration tonight. That is a hell of a way to go. But I’m not sure I can drink enough water to compensate for the output that is… errrrr… coming. (This is in reference to the Nikki Haley allegations which apparently have receipts.)
Biden is so fucking senile he can't stop confusing Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi. https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/20/politics/nikki-haley-donald-trump-mental-fitness/index.html
Not so, in the past a president not fucking things up would routinely poll "approval" at well over 50% Presidential Approval Ratings | Gallup Historical Statistics and Trends
What do you think they intended? They’ve stated their goal was to stop the votes or election results before the House. If that’s not trying to overthrow the government, what do you think that means?
They had all their precious fucking recounts, and they all failed. They had all their Giuliani joke trials, and they failed. There's nothing left to do after they stop the count that's at all legit. It was going to be kangaroo trials, and hangings. If FF thinks they were going to do ONE MORE FUCKING RECOUNT, and the MAGAS were going to go "oh, okay then" and all go home, he's putting plutonium in his crack pipe.
The red hats generally aren’t aware of this but Biff hired two different firms to investigate the 2020 election and they found no evidence of significant problems. Biff and his freak offspring have never mentioned this.
That has to be good news for Haley. Seems like she could actually have a path to winning New Hampshire now.
