Fox News Silence Over Trump’s Bizarre Claim to be Immediately Installed as President Speaks Volumes
MediaIte ^ | Aug 30th, 2022 | Colby Hall

Posted on 08/30/2022 9:00:30 AM PDT by rod5591

Former President Donald Trump has insisted that he immediately be re-installed as president or that a new election be called. His reasoning? A Mark Zuckerberg interview in which the Facebook founder reiterated his previous claim that the FBI warned him of a potential dump of Russian misinformation weeks before the 2020 general election that Trump lost to President Joe Biden.

Yes, the former president really did demand he be reinstated as president 664 days after losing the election. By any objective measure, it’s nuts. Batshit crazy.

Trump first made the bizarre demand on his fledgling social media platform Monday at midday, then “re-truthed” his comments at roughly 2 a.m. Tuesday:

That is not something that can occur, and you know it. So why say it?

You know when people stop saying, that has never been done before? When someone does it, then they set some new limit that will be set until someone goes and does that too.

It saddens me greatly to see all the strict constitutionalist that still believe you can win by obeying the illusion that the constitution matters to an illegitimate government.

end up wasting time battling people on this...a “friendly” site!

A fight you yourself started, now you have the temerity to complain when they hand you your head.

Well excuse some of us for having too much major turmoil in our lives to constantly research something as buried as election votes.

You have your head in the sand if you seriously think there are NOT 50% traitors in this country who gladly would vote anything that pushed their commie dream to the fore. The last 2 disastrous years whetted their appetites big time.

No, I’m realistic. Do you think people are going to support our side when the standard bearer talks gibberish constantly on his social media account? Or when our side has no cohesive message to win on because there is no organization within the party. Or that our side can win when we have way less major donors than the other side? How much money and how much time have you contributed to the candidates in your state?

Leftists have major turmoil too...but they are working like hell to get their candidates elected while our side sits back and thinks that a red wave will just mysteriously materialize!

Based on what Constitutional Article or Amendment?

When the facts are against you, argue the law. Clever Yo-Yo.

not help Trump grind his axes about 2020!!!

See that right there is the problem you have the, Trump is grinding our axe, not his and you fail to see that because you are likely on Mitch's payroll or someone like him.

No...instead of making it a “we” problem, Trump makes it a “me” problem. Words matter in politics and how you convey something can be the difference between winning and losing.

Then don't call people who have researched the election fraud, "dangerous" and "delusional".

You have your head in the sand if you seriously think there are NOT 50% traitors in this country...

And you're right back at it claiming 50% traitors without out spending the time to research the voter fraud. Talk about head in the sand...

He’s giving the corrupt deep state something to feel ashamed of... we all know they cheated by hiding the laptop - now how are they going to make amends?

It’s more a way of letting the world know what scum these folks are... Trump doesn’t really expect them to do crap. He knows what they are. But this is a great way for the parts of the country that keep their heads in the sand to squirm.

Well, they’re not. But there is a price and that’s what’s happening here.

“we need to win by 5 or more in every race so they don't stealer it from us again”

I have been hearing the same shyte argument for 60 years. Here is a novel idea, how about stopping the steal instead of running a race with a 20% handicap?

Mitch helped us get the judges we wanted.

He sure did and everyone of them stabbed Trump in the back, refusing to even look at the fraud that displaced him.

“Do you think people are going to support our side when the standard bearer talks gibberish constantly on his social media account?”

Ah, you’re one of those people I see. The kind of people that think gaining an additional 5% or so from the fence sitters out there will somehow magically compensate for demotivating your core base of supporters. In the real world, that never works.

First you motivate your base, and then, if possible, you can expand the base. Trump has already proven he can do both, and no other modern Republican at the national level can claim to have done so. Certainly no other Republican will be able to do so until Trump deems fit to pass the baton.

If people are too stupid to understand the difference between Trump and his enemies, they will get everything they deserve.

The base isn’t as big as you think it is. Many on the left and center are ready to support DeSantis...the same cannot be said for Trump.

That’s complete gibberish that means nothing. So every single one of these judges now side with the left? They are helping to implement a one world agenda are they?
