    the committee is doing it in the wrong order, first you certify, then you can request an audit per State law, so this will never fly

    Integrity was great, as certified by Trump's own NSA and 28 international observers.
    Republican Secretaries of State and Republican governors have said the same.
    The Republican senator for Pennsylvania has said the same.
    Republican state legislators have said the same.
    Only people like you doubt it.

    Throwing around baseless lies about alleged fraud in the election is not a laughing matter. It’s corrosive to the fabric of the nation. It’s divisive.

    It is anti-American.

    I don't expect Trump to win any of these cases, but he has every legal right to challenge without having people question other peoples' seriousness or accusations of kneecapping democracy.

    Sounding like Chuck Todd isn't a good look for most people, except maybe for Chuck Todd, who is sounding and looking like the slimy paid hypocrite he is.

    Couldn't put my opinion any better than these Tweet from Professor Turley:

    Sorry. I don't find it funny at all. This will have bad consequences for our country.

    LOL it won't change the mind of the 70% conspiracy theorists who think the election was stolen from Trump. Typically conspiracy theorists don't accept facts.
    So, pressuring state officials to change the electoral college votes is not kneecapping democracy? Only in the "alternative facts" universe that seems to be preferred by Trump loyalists.
    I'll tell you what: I'm tired of this. Good bye.

    And YET, what is the first thing Turley tweeted??

    Ascertained

    Transition

    2 weeks ago

    Until you fully support that concept, everything else you have to say on the subject can be ignored... IMHO....

    If it does pass. What if it doesn't? We'll see.
    Did you see that the Michigan legislators were celebrating with Dom Perignon at the Trump hotel? What the hell were they celebrating? A bribe?

    Probably still being alive after telling Trump there was nothing they could do in this situation....

    Who's this Dom Perignon guy?? Another Trump lawyer?? No time for those guys to be drinking....

    Would you have preferred that HLS came back and said the election was compromised?

    Are you being sarcastic? It's hard to tell without a smiley. Dom Perignon is an expensive French champagne. I suppose you're being sarcastic, by the tone of your post but one never knows. Again, I don't find this situation funny. The Michigan Attorney General is reportedly looking into criminal charges of bribery and conspiracy.

    Even Chris Christie considers Trump's attempt to overturn free and fair elections a disgrace; that's the Trump loyalist who helped the president prepare for the debates.

    Why stress out? The board meets tomorrow. The two Democrats will vote to certify. If one or both Republicans approves certifying the vote, the Michigan is wrapped up. Worrying is not going to change that outcome either way.

    Totally... it's my stock in trade.... Look for the /s somewhere in the post... a lot of people are using that now...

    https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=/S

    If I don't laugh, I get angry and that serves nobody..

    The Michigan AG isn't going to find anything, and it's moot depending on what happens tomorrow..

    Trump's screwing around with his rhetoric and ridiculous lawsuits is a complete disgrace, BUT the failure to begin the transition while he bloviates is actually worse for the country long term...

    But Biden and Harris say that they can transition just fine.....if only you can let them bum some of your money.

    Hey Buddy, Can you spare a dime? It's for a good cause. LOL

    I see a couple of multi-millionaire politicians who are about to be laughing all the way to to the bank, with their "very American" political partnership ....with the Global Bank-sters and the Military Industrial Complex.

    Meanwhile, how 'bout 5 bucks?

    I wouldn't donate to that cause any more than idiots shouldn't be giving Trump any more money. The money is already assigned for transition.

    Money is NOT the transition issue, and you know it...

    Yes, I know. So, that does make one wonder why the presumptive President-elect and his VP are begging for bucks to "transition".

    I would guess it's to make it perfectly clear to all part of what Trump is up to, in a way relatable to most. The public in general doesn't understand the gravity of what transition means, so turning it into a money deal might help make it clear.

    It's a bad look in my opinion. Doubly worse because it's something Trump would do.

    Joe and Kamala should ask for donations to be reserved for bonuses to whichever future Federal Prosecutor(s) slams Trump behind bars... That's a cause worth $20 out of my wallet.
