Trump's End Game
American Thinker ^ | Dec. 16, 2020 | Mark Lansdsbaum

Posted on 12/16/2020 10:34:16 AM PST by libstripper

The good news is it’s still entirely possible for Donald Trump to be reelected. The bad news is that it is likely to come down to the RINOs.

* * *

But there is now also a hugely encouraging fact: on Monday Trump won his most significant battle yet when seven swing states sent pro-Trump electors to Washington. Now, someone must decide whether to accept the Biden slate of electors for those states, which also were sent on Monday, or the Trump slates.

FTA: “Then the matter will go, per the Constitution, exclusively to the House of Representatives, where each state will get only one vote and where Republican states outnumber Democratic states. Voila! Trump is reelected.”

That assumes the Repub delegation from the Repub states will actually vote for Trump. At this point, I have my doubts.

I think worthless Mitch answered that question when he sent congrats to clueless Joe.

Agree is pushing for a Biden Administration because he believes it is the right thing to do even though the rug is being pulled out from under him! And got to question is it his handlers (aides) telling him what should be done!

He certainly belongs there. Also, given the communist takeover we’re facing if he isn’t reelected, we should use whatever legally available weapons we have to prevent that takeover.

No, it's not.

The rules for choosing between competing electors are vague.

No, they're not. "But if the two Houses shall disagree in respect of the counting of such votes, then, and in that case, the votes of the electors whose appointment shall have been certified by the executive of the State, under the seal thereof, shall be counted."

Could be tricky with my knowledge of the area behind the monument.

No its likely to come down to the 2018 E0 and martial law. Pretty much it appears people are realizing it.

Mitch and the boys are fine with the steal. They think they got what they wanted, they got rid of Trump and kept the Senate. They are too stupid or naive to realize they are next.
F-em F them all.

Probably just leave your stocks alone. Things will eventually work out but stock up on TP and PTs.

The declaration of marshall law
I think would have to be made
while our president is still
Donald J Trump, which would be
before the slate of electors’
votes are cast in Congress. My
guess is he’ll drop the bomb
sometime just after Christmas.
I don’t think he would deny
the crooks’ final Christmas
celebrations. That would be
Un-American and anti-christian.
Also, I have absolutely no idea
how you would handle your stock
investments while under a state
of marshall law, as I think
Wall Street would probably be
shut down.
JMHO
