1. It is too late for them to do anything

The deadline passed in Wayne county and the results will be certified soon.

9. Laws and regulations does not matter here

The GOP wants to seat different electors inspite of what the law says

They want to seat different electors and have the US Supreme Court make judgment on it, hopefully in there favor. I suspect even if the Supreme Court rules against them they will still try to seat other elctors.

All they need is an excuse to do it.

If one state can get this done others will follow.

I do not care what the law says, this isn't about the law.

I have heard it over and over again the GOP can not doe this but that is exactly what they are going to try and do.

2. He'll ask them to break the law

Someone should wear a wire.

It might be profitable. (one way to appeal to rightwing lizard brains)

3. This is fucking nuts

[dchill]

4. Beans will spill.

[Thomas Hurt]

5. Look a GOP circle jerk...

[drray23]

6. they should be picked up by the fbi upon landing

and charged with sedition. let them fight it in court while they sit in a cell.

[Bayard]

7. Election interference

All the way down the line is a federal crime. The lawsuits, the phone calls, the pronouncements, the threats.

LOCK HIM UP! The Justice Dept. should.....oh, wait.

11. And this is exactly the crux of the matter.

People are acting as if this is all a joke, Democracy will continue, tra-la-la! The DOJ is compromised. I really hope Biden has some concrete plans in place for evicting the unwanted tenant, and all his enablers, out of the WH on January 20.

8. He's a fucking mess.

It’s over, you moron.

10. This is who we target-pass it on.

"The top two leaders in the Republican-controlled Michigan Legislature are expected to visit the White House Friday, according to a source with knowledge of the plans.

The visits by Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, R-Clarklake, and House Speaker Lee Chatfield, R-Levering, will come as a legal fight plays out in the battleground state with President Donald Trump attempting to challenge the results of the Nov. 3 election."

"LANSING — Democrat Joe Biden is the president-elect, and while Michigan’s Republican-led Legislature is investigating the election, it will not award the state’s 16 electors to GOP President Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey told Bridge on Tuesday."
So he says they will not award the votes to DT, but he is now meeting with DT. Optics are very bad for democracy.
