    Well if you ignore the fact that BOTH the House & Senate have to vote for it - you may have a point

    Also ignore the fact that Romney, Toomey, Sasse, Murkowski, Thune, McConnell and other republicans are not going to vote for it - you may have a point

    And you are cheering on the death of democracy in America.

    Biden won and you want the loser of the election installed. Disgraceful.

    They think they can shame people out of fighting back by slandering them and threatening to put them on a list. Besides, I don't think some of them even know what 'sedition' is.

    The election results are in dispute. That's the whole point.

    They take the cues from their leader - in their mind they are patriots. They repeat the fraud mantras regardless of how many have been repeatedly debunked

    No they are not

    Only Trump and his followers are denying the results.

    But I tell you what - how about we make this fair - recount ALL the votes from ALL the states.

    lol - no - the biggest liar/con-man in history knew months ago that he was not going to win. He created a false narrative for months and just shares lies and debunked information over and over again. Attacks every Republican who dares not to play along

    He created a false narrative and his minions are following along - unable to discern the reality that they are part of a coup attempt

    EXCEPT--That WON'T Happen.

    There is ZERO Chance of that.

    Trump needs to Get real.

    They only need 2 Republicans to join the Dems, and there are (at least) 4 GOP senators on record supporting Biden's Win.

    It is just simple MATH.

    The Votes AREN'T there. Period.

    Amazing isn’t it? The only fraud was where Trump did not win. If results are to be queried then ALL results should be queried because personally. I cannot believe more than 50 people actually voted for that TWONK

    Also - we need a complete investigation into all of the voter suppression efforts led by Republicans in minority heavy areas. Plus the complete corruption of USPS. I am sure the # of votes that cost Biden far exceed the voting irregularites that Trump et al lie about

    No they are not. The results have been certified by every state, according to their laws. Court cases challenging the results have been tossed.

    The narrative that you are peddling is a lie. I’m not calling you a liar because you may genuinely have been deceived by trump’s lies, but the narrative is a lie.

    Trump is a traitor and an enemy of America and American values. It is time to choose sides. Do you support America or do you support trump? You can’t support both.

    3 Republicans - otherwise you have a tie

    Regardless Murkowski, Sasse, Toomey, Romney and others are not playing along

    Nope. They only Need 2.

    The Current Senate Makeup is 51 (R) and 48 (D).

    There is one vacancy in GA.

    And, that member won't be seated by the 6th.

    They will most likely still be counting votes.

    Loeffler serves until her successor is elected (were she to lose).

    Thus, at the time the vote takes place on the 6th--The Dems Only Need 2.

    Why is Loeffler allowed to serve but not Perdue? I though both served until a winner is declared, but I defer to your expertise

    again PA state legislature controlled by Republicans changed the rules - Republican fraud at it's finest

    Law was in effect for a year - including the June primary. Law was challenged after the election not before as it should have been

    No court is going to throw out 2.5 million votes where people were voting as decreed by both parties. That is not what courts do. Republicans changed a law and then complained when it backfired. The challenges to throw out the votes were unethical and part of a clear cut coup attempt. The solution is to change for future elections.

    PS - again - the claim from the dictator want to be is Mass Fraud. This is not a fraud issue, because there was no mass fraud, other than the mass fraud spreading lie after lie after lie

    As I said yesterday, if I were the D's, I'd make a single 5 minute statement reading the election certification of the state "in question", then let the R's commit political hari-kari for the rest of the time.

    I know it's not in most of them to avoid a camera or microphone, but that's the best play as there is really nothing to debate here...

    On the contrary, vigorous debate and transparency makes democracy stronger. What about the millions of Americans who think Biden is illegitimate and the election was rigged?
