Having exhausted all other options, Donald Trump takes his case to the food court.
You wanna know what I don't understand? How many people still believe it couldn't happen here.
I don't know if there was large scale fraud or not. I want to believe there wasn't, but man, a lot of people out there making claims. Shouldn't we at least look into it?
And I know Trump is not well liked. I'm one of the not well likers.
As I said, I've moved on. Biden is the President-Elect. I would like to see Trump be gracious, even in the face of the injustice he believes, but he won't.
Things are not going to improve in America. No, I think it is about to get worse. I guess we'll see.
No one denies he was as polarizing as Hillary was. He drew as many opposition votes against him as he did for himself.
What doesn't sit are the mathematical impossibilities. Biden winning a hundred fewer counties than Obama, but capturing MILLIONS more votes? Every "over night" vote going 97% for Biden? The down ballot voting not at all corresponding to the up vote. Too many irregularities that are literally beyond logical explanation to be believed simply because "hatred."
No one argues your premise.
We simply don't buy the mathematical impossibilities that have been outlined over and over again.
Yeah, but no.
People ARE looking into claims. They just aren't getting the answers so many people want to believe here.
Notice how the links of "wide spread fraud" keep coming from more and more obscure websites? I've noticed. The so-called one sided "affidavits" don't really say anything of proof, just suspicion. One computer hack saying the dominion software doesn't read the results as well as the designers claim (and thus those ballots have to be human verified) is not "wide spread corruption".
Again, you are reading some half-baked people's ideas of what MIGHT have happened, but none of them are cross examined. None of theses statements are "in a bubble".
If one person says "I saw this", but 10 other people AT THAT SAME voting location says "I don't agree with that interpretation"? Is the first guy lying under oath, or is he just mistaken?
You pick and choose ONLY the guy saying "I saw this" and claim it as fact. That's not how investigations work. That's now how the court of law works.
Then you say.... "Well, I guess no one is looking into it". Of COURSE people are looking into it. You think John James (R) running for Senator in Michigan and lost by 90,000 votes doesn't care about potential fraud? You don't think his campaign would jump at the chance to erase votes if there was LEGIT fraud? Or the Republican party?
What you are proposing makes no sense. These votes aren't just about Trump. Hundreds of campaigns would have been effected. Normal, every day political candidates that don't have anything to do with Trump. You don't think the RNC would follow up on REAL claims of maleficence?
It is ILLOGICAL to think an entire party is turning a blind eye to wide-spread fraud just because the establishment doesn't like Trump. There would be too many legit politicians the RNC spent millions (perhaps billions) of dollars on worth fighting for NOT NAMED TRUMP.
I've said this before, some fraud occurred. But it was MINOR. Maybe 1000's of votes total across the whole country.
But you say "investigate". Republican run election officials have investigated and found "not much". William Barr and the intelligence community investigated and found "not much". Who is this magical person you want to investigate other than them?
You guys just refuse to believe the answer and you will claim "nobody investigated" just because you didn't get the answer you WANTED. Plenty of people investigated.
Here's the problem. The cases are not getting thrown out on merit. It's all procedural and technical stuff. To my knowledge very few, if any, of the cases have even been heard. So, to my original point, how would anyone ever know for sure? There are tons of people out there writing sworn affidavits claiming there was at least some fraud. Don't we have a responsibility as a nation to verify these claims? I think we do.
Don't see what?
That millions voted for "personality" and "acting presidential" rather than substance and achievements? Yeah we see it, and your obviously OK with it.
You are rationalizing the irrational,
Trump was elected to do a job, not act presidential. He performed far above expectations and earned a second term. Shoulda been a slam dunk.
The more troubling concern is that you don't see this.
Brutal, but reassuring.

I'm not rationalizing anything. I'm telling you that this guy you worship is equally despised by a lot of people. You might think they're wrong to feel that way. Doesn't change the fact that they do. I like a lot of what Trump did. What I didn't like was his uncanny ability to inspire rage and contempt in people. You all cheered it, thought it was great. He's telling it like it is! (Even if a lot of what he said was complete bullshit).
You're angry that a lot of people don't see that as some great thing like you do. I get it.
And frankly, I don't even think he did a terrible job managing the pandemic. He was simply incapable of intelligently explaining that to people. So he lost that narrative.
Look, I can't argue the specifics of each individual irregularity that you mention because I don't know the actual facts (and neither do you). But mathematical oddities aren't proof of fraud that would have changed the outcome of this election. There are millions of dollars being put into finding some proof and so far, I haven't seen any. So either there are many, many Republican elected officials and judges in on the conspiracy or there isn't a conspiracy. Perhaps the people Trump has working on this are simply incompetent, who knows.
I understand the suspicions because of the high turnout, turnout of people who probably don't normally vote (due to the mail-in situation), and the heavy imbalance of in-person voting on the GOP side and Dem voting on the mail in side. What I haven't seen is proof of any kind of intentional rigging of the election on a national scale which is what would have been required here to prove that the election was "stolen". "This looks really fishy" isn't proof.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh there's that peace, love and tolerance the Left spouts for "unity"!
I don't give a **** what you do.
Stop it Tibs, they going to get us confused again
I hope they throw the book at Trump, his criming family and his treasonous enablers.
You two aren't capable of confusing a mentally incapacitated 5 year old.
Tony Bobulinski, a former Hunter Biden business partner turned whistleblower, spent hours with FBI agents in October. He publicly authenticated messages found in Hunter Biden’s discarded laptop computer at a Wilmington, Delaware, repair shop in 2019 and retrieved by the FBI.
One memo showed Mr. Biden demanding $10 million a year from a Chinese billionaire to “make introductions alone.” Another message talked of cutting in Joseph R. Biden for a 10% share in a multimillion-dollar China deal.
• $3.5 million in 2014 from Elena Baturina, a Russian oligarch close to President Vladimir Putin. The Senate report said she illegally gained money through her late husband’s corrupt reign as Moscow mayor.
• Hunter Biden’s 2014 appointment to the board of Burisma Holdings, owned by a corrupt Ukrainian oligarch, after Vice President Biden was named as the Obama administration’s point man on Ukraine.
Over the years, Burisma sent more than $4 million to a Hunter Biden partnership and to him directly. His business partner, Devon Archer, who also sat on the board, has been convicted of fraud and is awaiting sentencing.
Burisma sent $1.4 million to Hunter Biden directly, half of that coming after Archer was arrested.
• Hunter Biden’s close business ties with Chinese billionaire Ye Jianming, beginning in 2011 when his father was vice president. Mr. Biden flew with the vice president on Air Force 2 to China in 2013.
Mr. Ye controlled CEFC China Energy Co., which wired $5 million to Hudson West LLC, jointly owned by Mr. Biden and Chinese investors. The next year, another $1 million arrived at Hudson West. Mr. Biden sent 20 wire transfers to his uncle James Biden totaling $1.3 million for consulting services.
James Biden’s wife refused to cooperate with the bank when it made inquiries, and the account was closed.
“I learned yesterday for the first time that the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware advised my legal counsel, also yesterday, that they are investigating my tax affairs,” Hunter wrote in the statement.
This news, as Federalist Editor Mollie Hemingway pointed out, is not actually new and was reported before the election, but was purposefully suppressed by gatekeepers like Facebook, Twitter, and corporate media outlets who ignored the reporting on Hunter Biden’s affairs. In October, the New York Post and others reported Biden’s knowledge and potential involvement in his son’s overseas business dealings during his time as vice president. A few weeks later, investigative reporter James Rosen broke news that the FBI was investigating Hunter for money laundering.
As early as 2019, Biden began to deny that Hunter or anyone else in the Biden family ever did anything wrong, ignoring the concerns of some about Hunter’s affiliation with the Ukrainian energy company “Burisma.”
“Every single, solitary, serious investigation, including your network and others, have looked at this, have said there’s absolutely zero basis to the accusation that I had acted anyway inappropriately or that my son did,” Biden said at a presidential town hall in Iowa.
In an interview with Axios on HBO, Biden seemed appalled that a reporter even dared to ask him about his son’s foreign business and work.
“I mean, come on, this is — (laughs) — you guys are amazing,” Biden responded when the reporter asked him about Hunter’s business dealings.
“So you think everything that happened was kosher?” the reporter shot back.
“You know there’s not one single bit of evidence, not one little tiny bit that says anything done was wrong. You know that,” Biden continued.
In the same interview, Biden denied knowing anything about his son’s dealings except for the fact that Hunter was on the board of Burisma, a fact he said wasn’t disclosed until after it occurred.
Shortly before one of the Democratic presidential debates, Biden echoed these denials, instead choosing to shift the blame on President Donald Trump.
“Every major national, international, and local news operations looked into it and said it’s a lie. This is a president who’s flat-lying,” he said.
In February this year, when NBC’s Savannah Guthrie pressed Biden on whether it was appropriate for his son to take the Burisma board position, Biden lashed out, saying, “Well that’s not true. You’re saying things you do not know what you’re talking about.”

“No one has found anything wrong with his dealings with Ukraine,” Biden told Guthrie.
The claims continued for the rest of his campaign all the way through the election, where he repeated multiple times that “there’s not been one scintilla of evidence that my son ever interfered, that he ever asked me anything, that I ever got involved in anything.”
Instead of addressing the evidence and emails presented from a laptop belonging to Hunter, Biden’s only acknowledged the New York Post, which alleged the former VP was introduced to a senior adviser to Burisma through Hunter while Joe was the “public face” of the Obama administration’s policy towards Ukraine, was when he called it a “smear campaign,” and blamed the press for asking questions about it.
“I know you’d ask it. I have no response, it’s another smear campaign, right up your alley, those are the questions you always ask,” he said.
I asked Joe Biden: What is your response to the NYPost story about your son, sir?
He called it a “smear campaign” and then went after me. “I know you’d ask it. I have no response, it’s another smear campaign, right up your alley, those are the questions you always ask.” pic.twitter.com/Eo6VD4TqxD

Biden and his team also latched onto a rumor started by Rep. Adam Schiff that Russia was somehow behind the release of the evidence.
“Giuliani, he is being used as a Russian pawn– he is being fed information that is not true,” Biden said from the presidential debate stage in October.
“We have shared no intelligence with Chairman Schiff or any other member of Congress that Hunter Biden’s laptop is part of some Russian disinformation campaign,” Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said. “It’s simply not true.”
Still not a peep - not one ******* syllable
Hit me up next time you're in for a job interview and they pester you with questions about your son or daughter, base their decisions on what your offspring is up to.
Obama campaigned and was super popular. Hillary campaigned harder than Biden, who made what 4 campaign stops?
Biden won 212 FEWER counties than Obama did...that's not insignificant...yet we are to believe while winning 212 fewer counties, without campaigning, he turned out 15.4 million more votes, all from 5 major cities alone?
While that's not proof of anything, it is certainly far, far, far beyond just being fishy.
Manipulating Dominion doesn't and wouldn't require "nationwide conspiracy." Just a handful of bad actors, some tampered code, and USB sticks.
And frankly, I don't even think he did a terrible job managing the pandemic. He was simply incapable of intelligently explaining that to people. .
