    Clinton. Abrams, and Trump- sounds like a debarred law firm. Or is that Bill Debarred law firm?

    Nah, Nixon knew he would get a pardon. It was his way out.

    Bunker Boy has no guts, just bone spurs.
    He ain't a man, a man would have conceded with grace.
    Bunker Boy is just a rotten spoiled child, leader of a cult.

    A disgusting person.

    Asking a person to commit a crime, is a crime.
    I hope a GA prosecutor picks it up, so it can not be pardoned.

    Nail the sucker to the wall.

    I don't recall this type of behavior from Hillary. Her supporters did, but she wasn't scrambling like a crazed loon to overturn the results.

    No idea who Abrams is; if she did as you say, was it wrong, or are she and Trump right?

    Historically, Trump apologists usually ignore any pertinent evidence and claim it was being misrepresented, he was joking or he was being set up. They aren't going to acknowledge this is wrong on any level.

    How is this not sedition. He literally told him EXACTLY how many votes he needed to “find”.

    I’m not sure ho ANYONE on the right can defend this call. If he had 90 days left in his presidency I really believe he would be impeached and removed.

    Honestly, this call could have made some sense BEFORE Georgia certified their elections (after recounts and failed court cases), using "some sense" in quotes considering the chief participant...

    Now, it makes no sense... and yes, I believe this is criminal and impeachable behavior.

    When I say insights for me the question has always been does he really believe there was election fraud or is he just using this to ratchet up the base, raise money and overturn the election results. When you listen to his arguments they are not the type of arguments a scammer makes. He seems to have bought into the arguments but when his arguments are refuted he sort of concedes the point and moves on but then later on he brings it up again like he totally forgot the conversation from a few minutes ago. For example when he talks about the ballots being scanned 3 times and then he hears opposing evidence that the video was edited, that the machine count was validated through hand recounts and authorities have investigated the claims he sort of accepts it and moves on to other things but then later on he brings it up again like they never discussed it. I still don't know what to make of that yet.

    You are totally correct about the length of talk time from the meeting participants. I found that odd right from the beginning. Not so much on how little the Georgia representatives spoke but how much of the meeting was dominated by the president and what he was saying. I am in a lot of meeting and normally senior people have other people presenting the data for them. I would have expected the president to make comments or add insights but he was essentially laying out the data and facts and it was done poorly.

    Enemy of the state.

    You know how we have privately run prisons! What if we convict the POS and then send him to a Russian prison in Siberia and pay Putski to keep him there for a long long time.

    they're probably waiting for their marching orders ... I am sure they are confused as hell as to how Trump could possibly be this stupid ...

    You mean like the one Trump is doing while also actually trying to overturn millions of votes? How many pages before a Trump supporter actually engages the OP?

    tI occasionally watch FOX to see what the enemy is doing. After getting the whole story pretty much on MSNBC I thought I'd find out how FOX was handling it. To my surprise it was pretty much spot on.

    Wait wait wait. What if he can be charged under Georgia's state election law that way the Eunuch pardon will not be valid.
