This information is inaccurate.
If anyone cares about the truth, this is it.
The one remaining hope is the suit filed by the AG here.
Trump can still win without Michigan as he did the night of the election. And that is what he will do this time I believe and hope.
My many friends on the Left
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Are you a Leftist? I only ask because I can’t quite fathom how anyone on the Right, knowing what the Left is all about, would have ANY friends on the Left. I certainly don’t, not even family members, because in my view every single one of them are either ignorant or evil or both, and are therefore dangerous to my well-being.
I thought the Supreme court ordered that Jill can not selectively recount the vote within States.
She’s challenging a national election in states only to effect the outcome of the election to the Left’s advantage. She’s selecting only parts of states to recount.
Yeah, although I live in one of California's most conservative counties -- Placer County -- many of my friends and business associates live in the big cities: LA, SF, Sacramento, San Diego so I face this massive chasm on a regular basis. How I handle it is to only talk about politics and ideology if they promise, as do I, that we listen to and tolerate (a different form of "tolerate" than what they have come to belief and practice) our differences, not try to change anyone's mind but just give a different perspective, and above all else remember that we are friends or associates so while passion is OK -- even productive -- anger, however expressed, is unacceptable. Not always easy to do, but if the anger rises, we talk about other things at once.
Oh, and knowing the emotional basis of the Left's arguments, I avoid deliberately antagonizing them (that is, even though it's a festive color,I don't plan to wear my MAGA hat to the Christmas parties and lunches!)
Works most of the time ... but it works best if we avoid talking about all such matters while in an otherwise relaxed social setting.
Bottom Line -- If my friends on the Left can't behave themselves and treat me as a friend, well, I accept that and explain that we should part company so we don't become enemies. This doesn't happen anywhere near as often as I feared it would.
When, I turned 50, decades ago, a Jewish mentor/good friend, advised me not to waste any of my remaining energy and time with the losers in life. He specifically cited the liberals.
I followed his advice, and that drove my wife and pastor up a wall at first. My wife came on board shortly after.
This mentor’s advice to cut the losers/liberals out of my life has probably extended my life. It has definitely made life better for me.
Our adult children, nieces and nephews were smarter than us. By the time they were 40, they stopped wasting their time with losers in their lives and any liberals they knew.
Our grandkids in their late teens have adopted that no time for loser philosophy.
