Two days before the January 6 insurrection, the Trump campaign’s plan to use fake electors to block President-elect Joe Biden from taking office faced a potentially crippling hiccup: The fake elector certificates from two critical battleground states were stuck in the mail.
So, Trump campaign operatives scrambled to fly copies of the phony certificates from Michigan and Wisconsin to the nation’s capital, relying on a haphazard chain of couriers, as well as help from two Republicans in Congress, to try to get the documents to then-Vice President Mike Pence while he presided over the Electoral College certification.
The operatives even considered chartering a jet to ensure the files reached Washington, DC, in time for the January 6, 2021, proceeding, according to emails and recordings obtained by CNN.
The new details provide a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the chaotic last-minute effort to keep Donald Trump in office. The fake electors scheme features prominently in special counsel Jack Smith’s criminal indictment against the former president, and some of the officials who were involved have spoken to Smith’s investigators.
There’s a kernel of attempt at future genocide in it, not truth
So you believe the Democrats are actually on our side and want what’s best for everyone?
That party isn’t even particularly consistent given how many different types of people are in it. What I can tell you is the genuinely monstrous people are drawn to the Republican party because they’re actively welcomed there.
That’s a pretty long winded way to say “no, I do not believe they’re good people who care about me”.
Can you think of anything positive to say about them that doesn’t involve comparing them to Republicans? I can’t.
Can you define good without the definition comparing to bad?
Yes. Satisfactory, desirable, moral. If you need to compare a concept to it’s antonym to define it, then you don’t really understand the concept.
Oh you sweet summer child
Bro, you dodged his question. He answered yours.
So how about instead of brushing him off with an insult, you actually pony up some good things you think democrats are doing that doesn’t just boil down to “well republicans would have done it worse”
Frankly, I’m on the side of voting democrats with the exact reasoning that Republicans will steer us into fascism. But I wouldn’t go so far as to say that they’re doing good, they just aren’t doing as much bad.
I can’t blame people who are disappointed with democrats as a whole, and I think it’s a reach to unironically take your position of voting for them because you think they have good policies.
Infrastructure expansion like trains, investing in education, healthcare plans, environmental programs, etc.
But of course you already know of all these so why do you need to ask the question?
(I’m not even from USA myself, but your Republicans have such deranged policies that it spills over to us in impacts on trade, etc)
I can define irony too, it’s when a guy who believes that one of the political parties in this country are good guys who are on his side implies that you’re naive.
