#BREAKING: Georgia Secretary of State Raffensperger just told @CNN that his office is cooperating with the Atlanta DA's investigation into Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 Georgia election.

(11,504 posts)I'm obviously thrilled that he's cooperating with the Trump investigation, but that doesn't make him any less awful.

(16,121 posts)Maybe with Rachel, that Kemp and Raffensperger spent $150 million on new voting machines. That forced them to defend the accuracy of the election because if they intimated that it was fraudulent, it would make them look bad. $150 million bad.
I have to believe that both of them are royally pissed off at T***p for the way he has treated them.
As you said, it doesn't make them any less awful.

Trump, "Can't you find me 12,000 votes?" (rough quote)
That was not Trump's 1st time @ the rodeo (aka shaking down people). He was very comfortable in asking for something that was
not his and illegal too.

(76,514 posts)... but a desperate to keep power in a changing demographic landscape.
Despite Fox News, the dumb fuck republicans in state houses, congress, and packed onto the courts
they are doomed over time. Joe and the K-Bomb are building a Juggernaut of a new and diverse
party.

They are in or soon will be in the Labera Tar Pits of history. Hell yes they should please hang onto Trump
who was and still is part of the biggest criminal operation in America's history.

(12,678 posts)I truly believe nobody in government that had anything to do with the insurrection will ever be punished. Trump will never suffer any consequences for anything criminal he has done.
Think well hear a variation of this in the next couple years...
For the health/unity/peace (you can add your own)of the nation/country we should just move on from this and focus all our energy on the future.
For my mental health I take this view, I have no words that describe the raging anger I have toward the instigators of this insurrection. A man -child that cant admit defeat, in his words, sad.
I do not condone any of the actions committed by the people that day.
But the little people are going to be the ones taking the brunt of any punishment doled out...once again. I hope they get what they deserve but the government leaders of insurrection will carry on as a summer walk in the park.

(11,949 posts)Ex-republican. Not Democratic by any means. But republicans are quickly becoming the Q party. Modern day Know-Nothings. Ive got several republican friends that feel homeless politically. They are not religious and dont understand what is happening to their party. They dont like my analysis.

(89,189 posts)Theres only one way to go to avoid being a traitorous idiot: DONT BE a GOP! Its the party of the Detestables, the Despicables, and the Damned. And throw in Deplorables for good measure.
Ive seen enough since the grim Ronald Reagan/Newt Gingrich days to have NO MORE patience OR understanding OR sympathy OR ANY leftover room in my heart for these jerks. Hey GOP, come talk to me after youve had your heads removed and screwed back on straight, and/or found even a minimal conscience for transplant from someone whos died.
