He's desperate, he's flailing, and there's literally nothing he can do legitimately except to watch



“Well, we’re seeing a man who is in a unique position. Donald has never been in this place before where there’s nobody to bail him out, there’s nobody to buy him out. He’s desperate, he’s flailing, and there’s literally nothing he can do legitimately except to watch this play out helplessly.”

“This wasn’t just Donald obfuscating or lying. This was Donald talking about an attempted coup. The leader of a country trying desperately to de-legitimize an election. it is obscene and somebody has to step in and stop him.”


The GOP own this. This coup will not succeed as court after court tell the authoritarian bollocks that is the Trump GOP to fuck right off, that they will not stop the vote count, but when this is over the complicity of the silence of the republican leadership should be soved into their anti-democratic faces repeatedly.

But to be honest the damascene conversation of MSM at this late stage is too little too late IMO

They should have been calling him out day one instead of normalising his behaviour

Is listening to Donald Trump, I don't, never have, if he says anything important it's reported by reporters. Yes I'm aware of the Wingnuts and I want to keep Biden in a bubble, but really they just don't come out in the numbers needed to cause much of a kerfuffle
