State legislators and Congress share responsibility for fraud that casts doubt on the outcome of the election. While other news media has breathlessly reported on the many lawsuits filed to deal with election fraud, the real story is the failure of Trump’s first term Republican Congress and State Republican controlled legislatures. They should have enacted laws that would have prevented the steal.
To file suit, there must be a “case or controversy,” which means, someone’s rights have been violated and the court can do something about it. It’s the last part that is lacking in every lawsuit filed to deal with the election. The so-called conservative media has been complaining about the court system, but the real culprits are the Republican legislators who hold a large majority in each of the state houses in the swing states. Republican legislators are solely responsible for certifying an election, and if the election is challenged, Republican legislators should conduct hearings and then decide whether to certify the electoral votes.
Each of the swing states have conducted hearings. 90% of Republican voters believe the democrats stole the election, but Republican legislators in each of the swing states certified the electoral votes on December 14th. Their decisions are final, conclusive, and binding on Congress. I have given the Republican Party a lot of thought over the past many years. Up until now I hoped that the Republicans would become the party of Trump. With minor exceptions, they have not, and it is obvious after the past four years they will not.
Trump should announce his candidacy for 2024, even if he does not actually intend to run. He should not run as a Republican since he has proven he has very few friends in the Republican Party. He should form a new party. Between now and 2022, he should hand pick challengers who can unseat RINO’s and ask his friends in the Republican Party to consider joining the new party.
Trump needs to conduct a campaign to ask his supporters to switch parties. I will be the first to join, and millions other staunch supporters who like the way Trump tweets will join also. There are currently only 55 million registered republicans, and for the first time there are fewer registered republicans than there are independents.
Currently nearly 90% of Republicans believe the election was stolen, and they know that the Republicans in state legislatures in the swing states failed to enact legislation that would have prevented the theft and then certified a stolen election.
When the RINO chosen to run in 2022 for Congress is defeated by Trump’s hand-picked nominee, voters may begin the slow process of considering that Trump can bring along with him enough nominees of his party to convince everyone watching FOX News that it is possible for a third party to displace the Republican Party nominee. If by chance Trump’s man does not win but stops a RINO from being elected, it’s no great loss.
The Republican Party here has been dead since the 1950s.
Sorry to disagree but I knew Donald Trump, Trump was a friend of mine, Mr Ross Perot was no Donald Trump. If you want to continue to vote for the Washington Generals, that is your prerogative, but I don’t want to plan on a losing team.
You have heard of ServePro restoration experts – “Like it never even happened.”
Republicans, including Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) have said that it’s unwise to challenge the votes. “It would be saying, ‘Look, let’s not follow the vote of the people, let’s instead do it [sic] what we want.’ That would not be the way a democratic republic ought to work,” Romney told media outlets earlier this month.
Earlier Wednesday, Trump called on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to keep fighting after McConnell congratulated Biden on the floor of the Senate this week.
“Mitch, 75,000,000 VOTES, a record for a sitting President (by a lot),” Trump wrote to McConnell, underscoring the amount of support Trump has. The remarks were shared alongside a Daily Mail article about Republicans turning on McConnell after he made his remarks about Biden on the floor of the Senate on Tuesday.
Are republican lawmakers deaf, dumb, and blind? Do they not realize that by denying reality that they are disagreeing with almost 90% of republican voters who believe the election was stolen? Obviously everyone knows the election was stolen but for some republicans not having Trump around is preferable to having Biden as president.
1854
Don’t worry given that the Georgia legislature has not and will not change any of the rules of the game, she can’t possibly win.
Sorry to disagree, but there has never been a Donald J. Trump. If you want to continue to vote for the Washington Generals, that is your prerogative, but I don’t want to plan on a losing team.
I am for it! So tired of being a Republican..in fact I’m through being one.
No political parties is an idea that needs to be discussed.
Wait a sec....I mean 1854.
;-(
“Teddy Roosevelt tried it - and lost.”
Abraham Lincoln tried it - and won.
NO!
If you found squatters living in YOUR house would you throw up your hands and buy a new house leaving your old one to the trash that stole it from you, or would you reclaim your house for yourself and your family?
This is MY party. Primary out the SOB’s who have broken the faith with us. Let them struggle to start a new party. Don’t give up! Don’t give in! We are Americans. We stormed the beaches at Normandy. We put men on the moon. We don’t give in to traitors and charlatans.
I want my party back. That’s what we should all be working toward.
America First Party
The older I get the more my typing sucks.
I’m off caffeine too for healthy blood pressure.
Can’t hit the broadside of a barn in FPS’s solo or coop.
I’m not back at 100% yet, but I will be when I start big co-op campaign with Halo Reach on pc.
Won’t do any good if many of the same “players” just change their party affiliation.
We have to cut out the rot, top to bottom.
Sounds great, but Do “staid” Republicans want to watch programming like Tucker Carlson every night without fail? No. Which is why Republican primary voters picked John McCain, Mitt Romney, and George W. Bush, and not Rand Paul or Michelle Bachmann. It is why the elite inside the beltway Republicans and CEO’s were never Trumpers. Tell me what legislation you are so proud that the Repuvblicans passed in Trump’s first two years?
Good answer ! Thanks.
Worse... he gave us a democrat President (and that gave us WW1)
Perot got Clinton into office twice.
A third party only has a chance if Trump agrees to lead it.
How about the Peoples Front of Judaea?
