Big D vs Twitter

It's All Noise (to please his supporters).
The court fight over election results, which has yielded few results, is as much about pleasing the base as it is about making coherent legal arguments.
----------

Before the election, Republicans bragged about an army of lawyers from three major firms lined up to quickly challenge election results in the presidential election.
But now that the big moment has arrived, that army — and those major firms — have not been too visible.
Behind the scenes, much of the legal work has been handled by small conservative firms. And publicly, President Donald Trump has relied on his staunchest political allies — some of whom aren’t even lawyers — to explain why states should toss out ballots or invalidate the results altogether.

There’s a reason for that.
As with everything Trump, the messaging has served as more a base-pleasing political play and less as an attempt to make a logical legal argument to the country, according to Republicans familiar with the plan. The goal is to not only undermine the legitimacy of Joe Biden’s win, but to also rile up supporters for the runoff fight in Georgia that will determine which party controls the Senate next year.

It also serves to sow doubt about the integrity of U.S. elections now and in the future, benefiting Trump’s I-never-lose posture.
It’s a tactic that appears to be working — at least in delegitimizing the election’s results. Already, 70 percent of Republicans say they don’t believe the election was free and fair, according to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll released on Tuesday. That’s a huge rise from the 35 percent who held similar beliefs before the election.

“It’s all noise,” said a former Trump aide who remains close to the campaign.
Legally, the Trump team has not made much, if any, progress.
Since the Nov. 3 election, the president’s attorneys have not won significant legal challenges in the key swing states Biden won or leads in: Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia and Nevada. In some cases, Trump’s team didn’t present the evidence needed to invalidate ballots. Other times, his team didn’t even send in the right documents.

The poll results show the majority of republicans think it was rigged. Fake news: oh fuck, that ain't good, I know lets accuse Trump of creating a conspiracy for political reasons, disinformation, wah wah wah, and then we can cite the poll result as evidence to support our allegations against Trump, like ah ha, see see, it's working, we told you so, we told you it was misinformation, and now look, look they're misinformed!

Meanwhile in the real world if you were going to a site like this https://electioncases.osu.edu/ to keep track of the litigation, you'd realise everything the fake news just told you was total bullshit and wishful thinking.
 
Or you can listen to me. In the real cases, which are yet to come, the democrats can say "well why didn't you say so before, had you told us at the time we could have ensured the count was done legally, it's not our fault you waited until you lost to make these allegations, the fact we can't fix anything now is totally your fault", and the court can use that as a reason to find there was fraud but refuse to grant any remedy for it. The same way as if you try to refund a pair of shoes after you've worn them for a year and then find they're not the same colour as on the picture on the website. It's too late.

That's why all those lawsuits were issued during the counting, and even before the election. Even when they had no evidence to support them at that time, it doesn't matter, you just pay the court filing fees, issue those proceedings, and take the loss. It's pocket change to Trump. These are the cases the fake news are telling you Trump is losing, haha look, see he's losing. They're totally fucking clueless and have no idea what they're talking about.
 
You wait until you get screwed over in an overseas wine deal a few months from now, you'll remember this bedtime story, have the sense to fire off a few court cases early on, and then thank me later for saving you from losing the entire barrel.
 
I'm not criticising the people who did the report. They did what they could.

An honest journalist would point to the very limited nature of the operation and therefore the evidential value of it and that they report pointed to some problems that need to be rectified - they just so happen to exactly the areas where fraud is alleged to have occured.

Yet, the headlines just say there's no evidence of fraud.

The media are not doing their job with any respect for journalistic integrity.

A - Maybe I need to go back and look at what 'evidence' means because I seem to have a very different definition compared to the two legal bods on the website. There's evidence of the system being a bit broke and the potential for it to be gamed, I agree with that and as mentioned it's been there for decades. I admit I've not seen much else of it but the few bits I have seen of accusations include some guy crumpled up a bit of paper and binned it, they put paper on the windows to stop outsiders looking (meanwhile there's an army of reporters inside) and the glitches which when figured out were rectified. I suppose if thats the accusation it can be scrutinised but I imagine ordinarily it wouldn't get far.

B - Journalistic integrity, well I think there is certainly a challenge there. The flavour of articles and opinion pieces is coloured by their personal view, or those of their friends and family and that counts over here also. It also counts to the likes of Fox and friends who show as little or less integrity when it comes to journalism.
 
It’s beyond parody that this body of people were chanting “Stop the count, stop the count” in one district, whilst others of their clan were chanting “count the votes, count the votes” in another. Sanity and reason, and just the basic human instinct to not look like a fucking imbecile, seems to have been lost

This is when I know you don’t know what you’re talking about.

We’re busy looking for all those cracking deals on Australian wines now that they’ll not be able to fleece the Chinese with overpriced “export labels”.

It’s a well known model to overprice your wine to premiumise it for the Chinese market - at prices you can’t get away with in the domestic market.

UK will lap up all the cheap shit that gets sent there anyway - all it needs is a kangaroo on the label.

It's beyond parody when our fans are chanting for goals to go in at one end, yet chanting the total opposite at the other end. Sanity and reason have long since departed Anfield. Or should I say Klanfield?
 
You need to start asking why the media keep parroting this line when there is evidence on affidavit from former Assistant AG's about the irregularities
I'll start asking whenever they make it easier for everyone to vote.

You admit this in the presence of Frogfish who now has a civic duty to report back to his overlords? He'll trade your life for +2 social credits in a heartbeat.

I have to say I was somewhat surprised voter suppression didn't feature in the reports you cited.

If I was an idiot I'd claim the reports found no evidence of voter suppression

Agent Frogfish is back in China having successfully completed his coronavirus mission in Europe.

More like “offside, fucking offside, c’mon ref” versus “offside? What the fuck is offside. Fake news. Offside isn’t even a thing. Put the ball in the net goal hanger”.

It’s ridiculous. And embarrassing.

They're obviously in another report.
 
How many of these Affidavits are there?



You kinda have to suspend any sense of reality.. Some blokes pulled up in a Bidden van and just started ripping open ballots broad daylight zero fuxks given.
There has to be some corroborating evidence also apart from the fact Trump got less votes.
 
What's this "ethidence" shout?

What? I made the word up. If memory serves I was educating someone about academia, and how the pathetic atheism movement is what turned into wokeness, I was explaining it's origin, he kept asking me for evidence, I told him my testimony was evidence, I was there, I saw it man, he called me a russian bot or something, so I replied with a comment emulating his childish argument along the lines of "you have no ethidence that I'm a bot, so ner, ner ner, i got you, no ethidence, where is your ethidence, ner". One of my finest replies. He blocked me. This seemed like an opportune time to resurrect the phrase.
 
It's surreal that my trolling of a woke moron would actually turn into what passes for journalism in 2020. Another dantes was ahead of his time shocker.
 
Conspiracy stories summed up brilliantly by Paddy Power..


Claims of voting fraud continue to be debunked in the United States.

Dave from Milton Keynes, however, knows different, and he's about to tell his 8 Twitter followers the REAL STORY.
