NEW: The Trump campaign is seeking to withdraw its Michigan election lawsuit, saying the litigation achieved its goal of derailing the certification of election results in Detroit and surrounding Wayne County https://trib.al/swlw8Hv

Holy shit you're stupid. The Michigan Secretary of State confirmed there are no "take backs" and the rogue Wayne County officials can't simply undo their certification. Michigan will be certified statewide for Biden on Monday. Have fun chasing your tail, Beavis.

(32,567 posts)but we can't because of trump's continued antics.
January 20th can't come soon enough.
I'm hoping and praying that we will finally get relief from this media hogging, impeached one-term loser asshole.

(4,507 posts)Hitler did not surrender the field in St. Petersburg (Leningrad at the time) but stupidly instructed the army to hold the city (which it did for a while longer b/f the commanding general surrendered against Hitler's orders). In any case, it was a huge defeat for the Wehrmacht and one of the major turning points of the war.
There is probably a good analogy there to Trump and his legal "team".

(51,432 posts)I have been writing and calling DC all last night and today. I'd be a pleasure...relieves my angst.
Lonestarblue
(9,880 posts)But probably like most of us here, I already consume far too much political news. I really do want a boring presidency for awhile. Maybe Ill finally find the time to read my copy of War and Peace.

(51,432 posts)so I go old school...gmail and my phone. Knowing that my message to that Emily Murphy thing will be received by her made my day. I really believe she will get it and many, many more. Perhaps that is why she is upset, she knows she is one of the most hated people in the country today.
Sure sucks to be her, but she had a choice and chose the GOP...not smart Emily darling. In fact, pretty damned stupid if you thought they'd help you out. Ha...stick with your God, your hero, your He-man, the fucking orange moron. Your lord and master...kiss his ass some more while we pay for your salary and his! I would be meaner but I'd get kicked off of DU.

(9,880 posts)I worked within corporate politics for decades, now its time to enjoy the freedom to say what I believe without repercussions. Absolutely freeing! And Im grateful to DU for the platform!
BigmanPigman
(51,432 posts)but I am beyond super angry. If I lived in DC it would not be a good thing, not a good thing at all. I'd probably be in jail for harassing certain people at their homes. The GOP/right did that to Barr but of course that is OK, if Dems did the same things there would be arrests. We aren't treated the same way. I know this from being in a protest facing the Proud Boys. The sheriffs treated them with kidd gloves.

(3,383 posts)What kind of story will he weave to convince them that history demands that they over-rule the voters and award Michigan's electoral votes to him?
Do they think that the "true believers" will support such a move? Do they believe that all Republicans are traitors?
His delusions are causing great harm to the nation. His enablers must pay a very heavy price for this hubris.
Any legislator setting foot in the White House tomorrow should carry this stain to their own political destiny. Democrats must paint this as a disqualifying action should they stand with him.

(21,859 posts)in federal AND state court!!
All without evidence, and all meritless. Perhaps some sort of retribution is due, to start fining the stupid attorneys filing these wacky lawsuits and/or hitting them and the plaintiffs w/ hefty fines for abusing the court's valuable time?

(4,995 posts)withdrew because they won, when Biden officially becomes the President Elect after the Electoral College vote we can point to these claims as evidence that there was not election fraud. "Look - you won the lawsuit in Michigan. That's means any illegal votes in Michigan were throw out and you STILL didn't win the state."
