It’s the hallmark of every conspiracy theory. All evidence that disproves the claim of fraud is interpreted as evidence that the conspiracy exists. Sidney Powell claimed today that the CIA and media companies are part of the conspiracy.
Good, Lord. One day the CIA is the deep state. The next it's on a deep op in Germany to secure compromised servers and good men die. The next day they're back to being the deep state. These damned rubes.

Exactly. The same is true of flat-earthers too. The more abundant and persuasive the evidence to the contrary, the more convinced they become of the cleverness, duplicity and determination of the conspirators to deceive.
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

According to Jake Tapper there may actually be some upsides to Trump's tenure in office; in particular his specious lawsuits contesting the election. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1nEh9kUqMk

Because of all the house Republicans and AGs who supported the infamously specious Texas lawsuit, we now know that there at least 126 House Republicans and 18 AGs plus other Republicans currently in office who don't give a damn about democracy, the will of the electorate, the demands of the U.S. Constitution, truth and the rule of law, as long as they think they can appease Trump and his sycophantic, diehard base. All of these self-serving cowards deserve to be voted out of office post haste!

Hmm. Jake musta read a Faceplant posting of mine from earlier this year:

So, the other day I was watching the movie - Inglorious Bastards - for the second or seventh time, and came to an inglorious conclusion. That is, the one good thing to come out of this crap show known as the Trump presidency, is...it's put uniforms on the Trump Nazis. So's we can identify them. Cause, see, I predict in a few years when history catches up with the orange maroon, and proves him to be the traitorous, treacherous, scoundrel that he is, all of the loudest Trump thumpers will be taking off their uniforms and saying - Trump who? Now, I'm not suggesting we start carving 'MAGA' into foreheads but, well, actually...

Just a quick reminder that subs hasn't presented any evidence of fraud yet. Now subs, unzip that file you linked to, read those documents, and when you've got something, feel free to post it here.

Nobody is going to take the time to read a mess of documents that you haven't read yourself.
Posted reference, articles, quotes, data before... Evidence has been provided. If you won't admit that much then you can understand how i an easily dismissing your refusal to even consider the facts before you determine what they may be evidence of.
you're just being ignorant and you will get what you get.

Ah, well aren't you impressed that the student has now become the master.
(and how nice that you are now taking great strides to avoid the reauested evidence that has presented to you (yet again))
I’m not impressed with chickenshyte propagandists who have trouble constructing basic sentences, and who cannot plainly state that they believe that widespread use of narrow and targeted voter fraud occurred. : D

You can’t say it because you don’t believe it.
tl:dr

canpakes has nothing now that evidence has been provided(yet again).

pivot from messenger to message (yet again).

As uncomfortable as it is to stand more adjacent to Ajax than to...well, than to almost anyone else except Schmo or Icarus/Hawkeye/KG - I must interject.
Not widespread, but rather narrow and targeted.
OK. Feel free to post examples of this widespread use of narrow and targeted voter fraud, when you’re ready.
Your moving of the goalposts didn’t work.

Here’s what you have:

“Biden couldn’t have won because I don’t believe it!!”

“I watched a dump truck pick up trash from a dumpster behind the canvassing building!!”

“My 80-year-old grandmother was confused by the voting machine! Suppression!!”


That’s a fail, my nutless friend.

This is why you cannot plainly state that you believe that widespread use of narrow and targeted voter fraud occurred, because you don’t believe it yourself.

Now, dance a little more. Go ahead. : D

Gad, he can’t say it. He doesn’t believe it.

Trump filed an election contest in Georgia, along with an motion for emergency relief. After GA recertified the result after the second machine recount, Trump dismissed the motion and filed a motion to amend his complaint. The Court reacted to the dismissal y putting his case on the regular docket. He filed a cert petition with GA Supreme Court of the placement on the regular docket and objecting to the trial judge that was assigned. The GA Supreme Court dismissed today for lack of jurisdiction, pointing out he hadn’t asked the trial judge for the relief he was requesting. (You can’t appeal unless you’ve requested something and been denied.)

No news from the Wisconsin Supreme Court, which is the only court in a position to act before tomorrow’s meeting of the electoral college.

As long as donations keep coming in, can Trump continue to file suit after suit?
