    There's 73 million+ people she can claim to represent.

    She can claim to represent the entire planet, doesn't make it true.

    Has she been given access to the Trump team evidence, has she had conversations with the POTUS? Given that she is clearly not working for him, then anything they discussed is not covered by privilege.

    She could be open to some very serious questions

    I read it wrong and edited it straight away when I realized the mistake. That chap did claim to invent email at one stage, I didn't claim he did, I said he claimed he did. There's a difference.

    you said
    Here's the chap who invented email
    so you did claim he invented email.

    Possibly, or let's say she has something, it's quite possible it's not good for either party. Trump wins but at what cost.

    He claimed it.

    He claimed it.

    you didn't say he claimed he invented it. you said he invented it. the language you used is very clear and unambiguous.

    You said he invented email, it's there in black and white.

    You didn't say he claimed to have invented email, you clearly said "Here's the chap who invented email". Why are you lying about it when it's so clear and obvious.

    You were probably trawling through twitter looking for someone with decent credentials who could back up your claims and you landed on this guy.

    I don't for one second believe or ever thought that guy invented email. You had all lost your minds over my professor typo, I went and changed it to something completely unbelievable. Yet here were are and you think I think he invented email. Fake news hate to break it.

    She absolutely categorically doesn't.

    If she had something , they wouldn't have kicked her off the team because they have nothing either.
    • There is no evidence of widespread fraud
    • There is no evidence of a major conspiracy to steal the election
    • There is no evidence of a software hack to change votes
    • There is not evidence that Trump won the election


    If they had evidence , they would have shown it by now , they haven't and they have lost each and every case.

    This idea that they are holding evidence back for some later case or for the supreme court is laughable.

    Specifically for the Supreme court , they cannot introduce new evidence there , that's not how it works.

    Imagine a scenario where you were convicted of a crime - Robbing a bank for example.

    You cannot go to the Supreme court and submit a video proving that you were elsewhere at the time of the crime or video proof that someone else did it.

    That's not what they do - If you were denied the ability to submit said videos in the lower court because the Judge said they were inadmissible on some technicality , THEN you might be able to go to the Supreme Court and argue that the decision the judge made was wrong based on the law.

    If the Supreme Court agreed , you don't get out of jail - You have to go back to the lower court and submit your video and see if that changes the judge/juries mind.

    Trump (incorrectly) believing that he can "fail upwards" to the Supreme Court because he thinks he has friends there is consistent with his world-view.

    He has "failed up" his entire life.

    So you made that edit 12 days ago in the hope that it would be brought up now and you could claim to have had some premonition about how the thread would now be going?

    Of course you did. Why else would you post the tweet of someone who you would then instead think has no credibility?

    Don't try to lie your way out of it just because you're embarrassed by it.

    Right now I think anything is possible, as he says himself never bet against him.

    But lots of people bet against him, and already collected their winnings, because he lost and is now a loser.

    He lost GA twice already and is going for the hat-trick.

    DM's antics over the last few pages are fairly indicative of Trump supporters as a whole, even when faced with irrefutable proof of their own lies they refuse to acknowledge them.

    For some people there really is no hope.

    So Trumps camp is trying to defer certification by the looks of things.
    I'm not sure how that can work for him as it's Congress that has to accept any late certifications isn't it?

    Great news. The monkey business was absolutely destroying the thread. Thanks Mod.

    It's only just begun.

    Any update on that?

    Did you not see the Mod's post? It's right above your post. The monkey has been thread banned and won't be answering any more questions posed to him.

    I'm not certain which part of the confirmation of the various results it is at (Congress, the EC votes or something else), but saw something that if a state doesn't certify or have their EC votes counted then Trump still loses as the calculations change and the total required becomes less that 270. So Trump basically needs California or New York not to have their votes counted to be in with a chance with the methods he's trying as most other states being excluded would still leave Biden with over 50% of the remaining EC votes.

    You as always.

    Still standing over your claims that trump doesn't write his tweets for example?

    You mean they have a bit of an agricultural odour from them?

    The "theory" is that if a State fails to certify its results one of two things could happen.

    The local leadership - Governor or State Congress would decide the winner themselves and send forward their own slate of Electors. Hence Trumps meeting with the Michigan House and Senate leaders over the week-end. He hopes that the Michigan certification process ends in deadlock , it's 2 GOP and 2 Democrat people on the State certification committee , thereby flipping the decision to the State house controlled by the GOP.

    The other scenario is where the State results aren't certified as above , but instead of sending alternative Electors , they just say "we can't decide the winner , so we're going to sit this one out" thereby meaning that neither side gets the votes from that State, potentially preventing either candidate from reaching 270 which is when it would get kicked to Congress to resolve - Senate picking the VP and the House picking the President.

    For this to be successful ,Trump would need at least 3 States of the "contested" to do one or other of the above scenarios.

    It is HIGHLY unlikely to happen and even if a State legislature were crazy enough to try to pull either of the above strokes the general legal consensus is that it would get over-turned immediately in court because as with all the cases thus far , there isn't any real evidence to support making those decisions.

    Has any reputable publication charted a path for any of these cases to end up at least being considered for consideration by the SCOTUS?

    Equally so of those that don't like Trump. Weeks on from an election, that is over and people still talking about it.
