The Donald Trump Score Card

If the republicans pull this off, there will be a civil war.

 

As if the descendants of slavers and murderers of Natives have a monopoly on God? We need to round them up.

 

Stormountainman mentioned this. Not only are these people ignorant, they have no grasp of reality. They were going to Cuba to kidnap Tupac’s mother, lololol. I’m sure that would have worked out well.

At least one texas republican has some sense.
GOP lawmaker: Texas election lawsuit represents 'a dangerous violation of federalism'

 

Paxton of Texas feels that he was disenfranchised.



‘It seemed wrong to us’: Texas AG insists he’s entitled to throw out Joe Biden’s win in other states

excerpt:

“There’s no way to know whether any of those 2.5 million vote in Pennsylvania were legit,” he asserted. “They could have all been legit or half of them. We just don’t know. And so we can’t know what the election result was.”

“How were the people in Texas wronged by this?” Bartiromo wondered.

“I feel like that because we followed the constitutional provisions for electing our electors and these other states did not, that my voters are now disenfranchised,” he said. “Because we fought so hard to follow state law and make sure that our elections were legitimate. And these other states changed all the rules by people that didn’t have the authority to change the rules, by state law or federal law. And so that harm in a national election, it affects all of us.”

 

Paxton should be addressing the fact that the governor of Texas issued a proclamation limiting ballot drop-off boxes to one per county.

In contrast to the governor of Texas issuing a proclamation limiting ballot drop-off box locations just before the election, Pennsylvania's election rules were formally modified in 2019 by the state legislature and nearly unanimously approved by Republicans.

Yet Paxton is claiming post-election that PA did something wrong with its election rules that disenfranchised Texas and has petitioned the Supreme Court directly to hear his complaint.



Republicans launch Pennsylvania lawsuit that argues GOP-backed bill allowing universal mail voting is unconstitutional

excerpt:

"The lawsuit quickly drew heated criticism, including accusations that Kelly (who was just re-elected himself) and the other plaintiffs are "openly rejecting democracy and the rule of law," but many observers were simply perplexed. For starters, the bill was passed over a year ago, raising questions as to why its constitutionality wasn't brought up between then and now. Plus, it was pushed through thanks to a majority GOP state legislature, with only one Republican member of the state House voting against it, while GOP senators backed it unanimously."

 

Paxton should go to the Supreme Court and simply say, "I feel disenfranchised that Trump lost. Now gimme all those states Trump lost."

Act 77 passed with majority Republican support in a GOP-controlled legislature in 2019. It allowed for mail-in voting and eliminated straight party ticket ballots. It passed the House 138-61, with only one GOP "No" vote. It passed the Senate 30-20 with all GOP voting "Yes".

 

Trump can't settle privately in court to hide his loss this time like he has done many times in the past



'It Is Roiling Him': Reporter Maggie Haberman Unpacks Trump's Refusal To Admit He Lost

excerpt:

"[Trump] can't handle the concept of the label 'loser,' " Haberman says. "He has never before encountered a problem that he couldn't sue away through the court system or spin away. ... This is just an objective fact that he can't do anything about. It is roiling him."

Haberman has covered Trump for The New York Times for more than four years. Before then, she wrote about him for the New York Post, New York Daily News and Politico. She describes the president as a "self-destructive" individual who tends to crave most what he does not — or cannot — have."

 

And he has to pay back over 400 million in loans, plus the loans from Deutsche Bank which have a mystery co-signor, and do that while sitting in a prison cell. Maybe they will let him have Michael Cohen's old cell?

 

.

Aww... Poor DiaperDonny the loser.

 

With Texas AG facing federal probe, lawsuit to help Trump comes amid whispers of pardons

excerpt:

"Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton took the lead in the long-shot legal bid to overturn Trump's 2020 election defeat just two weeks after reports surfaced that he is the subject of an FBI investigation into allegations he abused his office to benefit a wealthy donor -- a thorny problem Trump could eliminate with a presidential pardon."

With Texas AG facing federal probe, lawsuit to help Trump comes amid whispers of pardons

excerpt:

"This was an act of some bizarre-world desperation. I don't know what drove it," Marc Elias, the lead attorney for the Democrats fending off a barrage of election lawsuits from Trump and his allies, said in an appearance on CNN.

"I don't know if it's politics, or I read that it may be because Paxton is fishing for a pardon," Elias said. "I don't know what's behind it, but this is honestly a bizarre lawsuit."

"The idea that Texas could sue four other states because Texas didn't like their elections? Well, guess what, Texas? There are a whole bunch of states who don't like the way you disenfranchise voters in Texas," Elias added, in apparent reference the state’s controversial efforts to limit alternatives for voters during the coronavirus pandemic.

 

The Republicans are all worked up about Hunter Biden and Eric Swalwell but totally silent on Paxton?

 

Federal judge casts doubt on Trump's Wisconsin lawsuit

excerpt:

"MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A federal judge Thursday cast doubt on President Donald Trump’s lawsuit that seeks to overturn Joe Biden’s win in Wisconsin, declaring it “incredible” that Trump didn’t raise the issues before the election and that siding with him would be “the most remarkable ruling in the history of this court or the federal judiciary.”

Trump is pursuing extraordinary attempts to overturn Biden’s win with a pair of lawsuits in Wisconsin, in federal and state courts. In the state case, Trump wants to disqualify more than 221,000 ballots and in the federal case he wants to give the GOP-controlled Legislature the power to name Trump the winner.

U.S. District Judge Brett Ludwig, a Trump appointee, marveled at the president’s request at Thursday’s hearing. Ludwig said he hoped to rule in the next couple of days."
