Trump Drops Bonkers Statement on Arizona Demanding 'Either a New Election' or For Him to Be

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

‘Declared the Winner’

mediaite.com

A Pima County, Arizona official said after the Maricopa County audit, “it has done a lot of damage to voter confidence across the state and across the country.”

Trump is now glomming onto claims of election fraud in Pima County, declaring falsely once again that “the election was Rigged and Stolen from the Republican Party in 2020, and in particular, its Presidential Candidate.”

He claimed that the Justice Department had this information since last November and didn’t act. You may remember that in December, Attorney General Bill Barr unequivocally stated, “To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have affected a different outcome in the election.”

Trump concluded his statement by declaring, “Either a new Election should immediately take place or the past Election should be decertified and the Republican candidate declared the winner.”

And the Crazy Train just keeps chugging along. The thing is, it needs to be batted down every time it raises its ugly head, or voter confidence will diminish with every election as people start to think, "What's the point of voting? It's all rigged."

1. Republicans remain on knees to worship TFG and The Big Lie

[Duncanpup]

2. I've dealt with this mindset before

With toddlers

[2naSalit]

3. SO it's back to ultimatum time...

One trick pony.

This country is acting like a battered woman who can't leave her abuser.

4. 👍

5. The Slonfather is stark raving mad

Stop giving him oxygen and let him choke on his own bullshit

6. Sounds like dementia is now mixing with anger, it will only get worse and more absurd

[Aussie105]

7. Dementia . . .

Emotions, especially negative ones, linger on long after rational thought has faded into the Twilight Zone.

Another thing about dementia - someone in the depths of it, can tell you a story like it's the first time, and believe it is something he thought of quite recently.
But it isn't, more like the millionth time that story has been told. And the details become more distorted with each telling, the inferences and conclusions more irrational.

Sound familiar?

8. Well

If the Honorable former President Barack Obama behaved this way, How long would it have taken for him to be locked away in fruitcake sanitarium for his own safety?

[keithbvadu2]

9. When are the down ballot Republicans who won going to insist that their election be invalidated?

[treestar]

29. +1

Is there a reporter anywhere who would ask?

[Auggie]

10. Trump knows it's bullshit ...

he’s advised to continue lying because it continues/builds the hate of his deplorables.

[Norbert]

11. He should never be within 100 miles of the White House

So it should be like this:

1. Decertify the election.
2. Have another election.
3. If the results aren't to my liking, repeat steps 1 and 2.

Or you can just sat I won and be done with it.

Nothing says Democracy more than this.

12. Pathetic

How pathetic.

When will he grow up.

He sounds like a student who fails a test and demands either to be graded on a curve or a re-test.

[thenelm1]

13. I think maybe he's starting to panic because the chickens are finally coming...

home to roost. The AZ fraudit blew up in his face and he's finally been ordered to appear at a deposition, along with some of his sycophants will be appearing before Congress in the next week or two.

[Haggard Celine]

20. That's what I think, too.

He's desperate and he's flailing around, looking for any way he can talk himself out of this mess. He thinks there's a chance that his followers will start a civil war for him and he's doing his best to find a way that he can keep his ass from being locked up. So he's throwing a Hail Mary pass, thinking that he has to figure out a way to cheat himself into the White House.

14. The boy ain't right in the head, y'all..

And if anyone cannot see it, they may have a few problems, also.

[KS Toronado]

15. Personally I hope he convinces all reQublicOns that.....

"What's the point of voting? It's all rigged." and they refuse to vote so they can own the Libs.

[marble falls]

16. Just a hunk of two days ago raw hamburger for a declining gang of nitwits. Like that'll happen.

[GoCubsGo]

17. That's because Tucson is in Pima County, making for a Democratic district.

They were as important to Biden's (and Mark Kelly's) election as was Maricopa County. His stunt didn't work in Phoenix, so he's moving on to try again with Pima County. Not sure how much of this is "Crazy Train." and how much of it is just more sowing of seeds of confusion and mistrust. I think it's probably mostly the latter, although Mr. Magnify Fortion is obviously in severe mental decline, and has been for a while.

[bucolic_frolic]

18. He is using a political movement as a shield to create fear amongst Rule of Law

[MissMillie]

19. If this were anyone else...

They would have been committed to a hospital for a psych evaluation.


(Hey--that'd be one way for Melania to be rid of TFG for a few days...)

[keithbvadu2]

22. She might already be rid of him most of the time.

She might already be rid of him most of the time.

We hardly ever see them together.

Wonder if she actually lives with him?

[Martin Eden]

21. The MOST INSANE are ...

... those who BELIEVE the utterances of this GRANDIOSE LIAR and still want him to be president.

TFG is what he is, with dangerous mental pathologies glaringly obvious to any rational person.

Also obvious is the MASS PSYCHOSIS among the devoted members of his cult.

Of course, there are those who KNOW he's a LIAR and love him for the way he triggers the "Libs."

[PortTack]

23. Since the courts released omarosa newman from her NDA..she has said a lot of things about

Tfg mental and physical health. Says it’s really much worse than reported.

Also says he will be too ill by ‘24 to run. Did not further comment on what that illness was. Neurotic idiots like him...age advances much more quickly than for the average person

[MineralMan]

24. Absolutely Unhinged!

[marie999]

25. What if some time in the future a presidential election is rigged but it is not found out

before the oath is given. The new president is found not to have known about the rigging. Is there anything that can be done about it? I can't find anything in the Constitution about it.

[Archae]

26. Trump is not crazy.

Maybe "crazy like a fox" applies here.

Trump is raking in millions of $$$ every DAY, fundraising off the wild claims.

[Ilsa]

27. He is sounding evermore like a pathetic, whiny, scared toddler

having a tantrum and crying for attention. I think we should laugh at him in public when he pulls this tantrum shit.

[sarcasmo]

28. The orange demon becomes more delusional by the day.

[yardwork]

30. It's not crazy, it's deliberate.

Maybe Trump himself is crazy, maybe not. Either way, this script he's reading is carefully planned to undermine confidence in our institutions, which will eventually lead to loss of our democracy.

Too many people believe everything they hear on Fox News and everything Q tells them. I despair.
