Wayne Dupree Media posting on Twitter is not necessarily breaking news or facts.

The two form SD are particularly bothersome. Thune, maybe, but Mike Rounds? SD is a solid red state with a notoriously conservative governor. These people are supposed to represent their people. In doing so they must review the evidence and if the evidence supports the wishes of their constituents, they must vote in favor of Trump. Period.

We need confirmation from some reliable source before any pearl clutchers here on FR start stroking out.

“Wayne Dupree Media posting on Twitter is not necessarily breaking news or facts.”

When he is reporting the names of GOP senators who have said they’re not standing with Trump on the vote fraud issue, that’s news. It would be news if it was reported via a newspaper article, and it’s just as much news if it’s reported via Twitter. News is news, regardless of the means of transmitting it.

Here’s the news article from which Dupress pulled quoted the paragraph that he cited, with those names of non-Trump-supporting senators:

I almost wish that I shared your confidence in the system doing the right thing. In cases like these I believe COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS turn out to have at least equal weight with what we would understand to be FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE. If you don’t have McConnell you don’t have the Senate.

And we do not have McConnell, not by a long shot.
