DeSantis pushes for open theft of 2020 presidential election

[RandySF]

Gov. Ron DeSantis is endorsing President Donald Trump’s fight to hold onto his job, floating the idea that GOP-controlled legislatures in battleground states won by Democratic nominee Joe Biden could appoint Trump electors and override the popular vote.

DeSantis, one of Trump’s close Republican allies, declared Thursday on Laura Ingraham’s show on Fox News he would stand with Trump as the president’s re-election chances dimmed. He urged viewers to donate to Trump’s legal fund and suggested people living in battleground states with GOP legislatures, specifically Michigan and Pennsylvania, contact their state lawmakers who could provide “remedies.”

“Under Article II of the Constitution, presidential electors are done by the legislatures and the schemes they create and the framework,” DeSantis said. “If there’s departure from that, if they’re not following law, if they’re ignoring the law, then they can provide remedies as well, so I would exhaust every option to make sure we have a fair count.”

GOP leaders in Pennsylvania have rejected that idea.
“The Pennsylvania General Assembly does not have and will not have a hand in choosing the state’s presidential electors or in deciding the outcome of the presidential election," Pennsylvania Senate Majority Leader Jake Corman and House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff wrote in an Oct. 19 column.

4. Oh lord! First, our senator steps in a senate runoff that has nothing to do with him and then

our governor is encouraging the outgoing president to disregard the people’s and the electoral college’s choice for president.

Wow! How did I end up with the stupid people for elected officials?

Cant wait to vote against this guy in 2022 😡🤬😡😤

5. I think that would be illegal under federal law, I hope he tries it

You're knowingly sending a certified document to Congress where the "winner" doesn't match up with the votes.

If that doesn't break the law behind the meaning and power of something being "certified" and sent to Congress, then I don't know what does.
