This is insane...

[SDANation]

We are reaching the point of constitutional crisis. The republicans are fully on board with undermining and placing doubt on our democracy. They are already telegraphing an intent to mess with the electoral college through the electors... I’m afraid we may be heading to towards a “coup”. If that happens, and I hope republicans take a long hard look at what would happen, we are gonna watch the downfall of our society through violence and economic destruction.

I think and hope a lot of this is posturing from the right but it’s getting to the point where it’s leaning towards an outright coup.

1. No, we're not.

They're a bunch of bloviating morons. Just because they all repeat the same bullshit doesn't make it any less false.

It has zero basis in reality and is going nowhere, just like Trump's silly lawsuits. If all they have is a sex offender "star witness" and some Trump supporter who tried to vote twice, you really think the election is going to be overturned? Nonsense.

The electors BS has been repeatedly debunked. Not happening.

4. It's already happened once

Luckily was averted after a deal but who knows how far they will take it.

9. I think they're just biding time

until the weirdo in the WH changes plans realizing his fight is unwinnable.

13. Some of the are also trying to prevent this from interfering with the Georgia senate races, too.

They are terrified that Trump is going to take revenge on them, and sabotage Loeffler's and Perdue's chances.

2. There would be national riots and a stock market collapse

I don’t think any electors nor the Supreme Court would go along with is. They would cause an apocalypse. The overwhelming popular vote along with large margins of victory in a state like PA. They would need electors in several states to change their votes and set up a horrible precedent.

7. They would be the change some of the States from blue to red

But I feel in my heart that is a 1000 times not going to happen this is just posturing from the other side.

3. Not going to happen.

Trump’s goose is cooked.

[Maven]

5. Not reaching. We are there.

The GOP is now refusing to acknowledge the legitimacy of any votes for the opposing party. They have no intention of turning over the levers of power. What do you call that?

[BComplex]

6. I think McConnell is just making a case for the trump team to count the votes before

trump starts using the nuclear arsenal that has now been left exposed since he's fired everyone in charge of managing it, and he just fired the Defense Secretary that would refuse to start a war for him.

I think they're buying time.

8. snowflakes have become a blizzard.

[SDANation]

11. Oh okay... sorry I'm a snowflake for believing a

man who has shown nothing but authoritarian qualities and has control of our government couldn’t take the next step into absolute control? Cool. I’ll leave you the land of willful ignorance.

12. trump is the BIGGEST snowflake. so are his minions.

time he was melted.

10. Congress can just refuse to fund anything until he goes and just take over
