They were planning it a month before the election. 

 

A month before the election, Trump was asked, if he lost the election, would there be a peaceful transfer of power?  His response was "the problem is the ballots. If you get rid of the ballots, there won't be a transfer of power."  

 

Skippy the Turtle, asked a similar question, responded that they would recognize the election "once all the legal votes were counted."

 

A month before the election, the Republican Party's plan was to wait till after the election, and then pick and choose which boxes of ballots they need to throw out, so they can get the result they wanted. 

He was making claims the Dems would steal the election in July 2020, 4 months ahead of the election. Hell, some of his co-conspirators were hashing out the plan in 2019…

You guys know that with Trump in charge of the RNC, every Republican candidate is going to have to question the legitimacy of the election if they want to get any of that fundraising money…

Should ("should") make journalists' jobs much easier...just ask every Republican running for office if they believe the election Biden won in 2020 was legitimate or stolen. If they say "legitimate" they lose out on RNC money, cuz Trump and his daughter-in-law aren't gonna stand for that. If they say "stolen" they lose out on votes because election deniers have absolutely tanked in elections over the past 2 years.

So far, I think the only punishment handed out for J6 sedition conspirators has been civil fines for saying bad things about corporations.  

 

Which pretty much backs up my post lol...

As many here have said before, we need to stop giving one single flying **** about what MAGA thinks lol...I honestly can't help but think it was edited to make this dude seem as ignorant as possible. Gotta be, right?

I watched some video (MSNBC, maybe?) where the news host said that when it comes to election schemes and Jan. 6th, state bar associations around the country might be the only ones so far holding people accountable for their actions.

There's no way this is real lol...

Somewhere in a room people are pondering how to raise money

and someone suggest selling a bible 

and someone else suggest having an insert in the Bible’s that is the constitution

and yet another points out you can’t leave out the pledge of allegiance 

 

And at some point they decide this is a good idea. Maybe they thought it was a good idea from the start, but it feels more like a dragged out joke turned into an idea 

 

 

And yet another person suggested inserting a centerfold of Melania...

Putting this here (no idea which thread anything I post should go in anymore lol):

Since this thread was on page 3, I'm gonna assume this wasn't posted yet lol...

Maybe I should have put this in the GOP thread instead...

I really need people to stop telling me how great the economy is doing when we spending almost as much on daycare for our two daughters as we do on rent.

 

There are certain aspects of what impacts people's dinner table conversations that the stock market or overall unemployment just doesn't matter to.

 

Biden deserves credit for attacking egrious fees and picking away at student loan debt.  But the cost of loving is the real problem here, and if that's not a different conversation then how well the economy as a whole is doing then it needs to be.

For the most part, the two go hand in hand, though...

If we want politicians to stop looking solely at economic indicators and instead look at families' bank accounts and kitchen tables, then we also need families to stop looking only at their bank accounts and start paying attention to national economic indicators. Voters insist on the first, and laugh off the second. It should be possible to say both that I'm struggling financially but the country's economy is not. But that can feel like being in the middle of a lake drowning, and hearing someone say "Very few people ever drown in this lake, it's one of the safest lakes in the country"...

The statute if limitations already ran out on the crime Trump actually committed (falsifying business records)

No it didn't.

New York pauses the statute of limitations when a defendant is out of the state for the majority of the time covered by the statute of limitations. That way criminals don't get to just cross state lines (or leave the country) for several years and escape prosecution.

Harvard Should Break up With the Harris Poll

Harvard is lending its name to a methodologically flawed poll that often promotes a right-wing political agenda.

https://www.thecrimson.com/column/forging-harvards-future/article/2024/3/26/bodnick-/

Every month, the Harvard-Harris Poll administers a public opinion survey that tracks Americans’ attitudes on a wide range of political and social issues.

[...]To see this ideological slant, let’s take a look at a question in last month’s poll about (the) bipartisan immigration bill.

In the prompt, the poll regurgitated Republican talking points, citing the number of migrants that would enter the country each day — a claim that is highly misleading — and stating that Trump has opposed the bill “to give the Biden administration any wins on an issue that he says they failed to do anything about.”

The question failed to specify a single positive consequence of the bill. Naturally, as a result of this skewed framing, the results showed that a majority supported Trump’s position of blocking the bill from passing.

[...]In addition to ideologically slanted wording, the poll frequently lacks a “don’t know” option. “That’s going to force respondents with different views to pick a side at random," criticized Will Jordan, a Democratic pollster. “But the numbers get shared as if they’re real attitudes.”

[...]the Harvard-Harris poll sometimes sequences questions in ways that can confuse respondents. For instance, the Dec. poll also found that 67 percent of young adults agree that “Jews as a class are oppressors and should be treated as oppressors” — an eye-popping result. This finding aligned with a narrative pushed by many conservatives: that leftists and young people are deeply antisemitic.

But that question was placed immediately after multiple questions about affirmative action and could have been easily misunderstood as a question about the way that Jews should be treated under an affirmative action system.

The Harvard-Harris poll misleads Americans with its flawed methodology and right-wing political agenda, but it’s unfortunately widely cited by mainstream media in potentially misleading ways. For example, the finding that young adults believe Jews are oppressors was cited all over the news.

******************

For the record, the "Jews should be treated as oppressors" poll question the article mentions went something like this:

- In Affirmative Action, certain segments of society have historically been oppressed

- In Affirmative Action, the white majority has been considered oppressors

- In society, oppressors tend to get all the breaks and benefits that the oppressed do not

- (Follow-up poll question): Do you think Jews should be considered oppressors or be considered as being oppressed?

Jake Gyllenhaal On the other hand is walking around thinking “keep it happy man, they’re paying good money so as long as I don’t kill anyone I can live on that boat.” It’s clear that he’s barely in control annd wildly over compensating to keep the demon under control. Dude tries to tell people, but they’re like “what you dangerous? No man, you’re so nice!”

 

Hell, even Conor Mcgregor told Dalton "There's something wrong with you" lol...it didn't really occur to me how on-the-nose that comment was until I read your post.

Not sure whether you realize that he was arrested, four times?

I think you meant to ask that of Bang lol...

"I just noticed the 'arrest watch' thread is over a year old." -Bang

I was only commenting on why the thread was started...and it was started because Trump said on Truth Social that he was mere days from being arrested, and the thread starter knew there could be a ton of posts about it spread over several different threads.

Not sure about what: if it was Trump floating the rumor that he was about to be arrested back then? Or not sure if we shouldn't have believed him?
