    Mark it… the plan is not to win the election.

    The plan is to have enough sycophants in enough states to deny the certification of the elections.

    If he can get enough Electoral College votes to be put on hold, the “Election” goes to the House where it’s one vote, one state. Republicans have more states in the House.

      I mean, he tried this in 2020 and it didn’t work, so here’s hoping it turns out the same (minus the riot). Heck even when he tried to pressure the GOP governor and sec of state of Georgia they had a solid wtf no

        I would hope if there was a 2nd riot our police, FBI, maybe even military would come in shooting. And I am sure after Jan 6th, they have a plan this time.

          I mean, they had a plan. The plan was to let them in.

          Not that the leadership told the beat cops that. Which is why they had shitty bike-rack-style barricades and not modern insurmountable barricades, and didn’t have nat guard on site, but tucked away… just in case; or use dump trucks and humveees as rolling roadblocks.

          It’s going to be entirely different this time.

        The fake elector scheme was a little different. If they sucessfully fail to certify, that’s actually farther upstream than the elector plot.

      Even if that is the plan, you might as well try to win the election instead of throwing it. The more votes he receives the more legitimate he can make it look.

        Oh, he’s not interested in making it look legitimate. The whole point is “you can’t trust elections.”
