This is just one example of the mess that Trump spawned with his relentless 'stolen election' narrative.
She's just one of countless examples democrats want to throw back in the faces of conservatives. Like Donald Duck, she's convinced herself she can do anything she wants, and doesn't have to think about the rest of the world. Between Covid and idiots like her, its enough to make you wonder how they ever reproduced. The latest evidence indicates authoritarianism of any kind, promotes infectious diseases. They are so contentious, they are fighting mother nature.

An example of Trump's obsession with power. Trump allegedly didn’t want to be Pence’s ‘friend anymore’ after riot excerpt: "I wouldn't want any one person to have that authority," Mr Pence allegedly told Mr Trump, who suggested that if “people say you had the power [to overturn the election], wouldn't you want to?” The former president pressed Mr Pence and asked: “But wouldn't it be almost cool to have that power?”
A question for all of you. Is this country ever going to fully recover from four years of Donald Trump? It seems to be a self-perpetuating cluster fuck! It's like a scar that's never going to fade! And it's not over! I don't see him ever being President again though I don't say it's impossible, but I'm concerned he could get the GOP back in power as a majority, and then they do his bidding. I can only hope they get clobbered in the mid-terms, and they're more than a year away. Sorry for the venting but Trump has to be the leading cause of paranoia in America.
Adam Zyglis is deserving of credit for publishing a cartoon in February 2016 before Trump was president that depicted a scene that looked eerily like Trump's insurrection at the Capitol five years later. image:
The Trump-adoring Sydney Powell thinks the boyfriend of the daughter of GA governor Brian Kemp was blown up in his car as part of an international conspiracy to stop Kemp from conducting an election signature audit.

Special Report: Backers of Trump's false fraud claims seek to control next elections By Tim Reid and Nathan Layne, Jason Lange Reuters September 22, 2021 7:19 AM EDT Special Report: Backers of Trump's false fraud claims seek to control next elections excerpt: "Reuters interviewed nine of the 15 declared Republican candidates for secretary of state in five battleground states -- Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada -- and reviewed public statements by all of the candidates. Ten of the 15 have either declared that the 2020 election was stolen or called for their state’s results to be invalidated or further investigated. Only two of the nine candidates Reuters interviewed said that Biden won the election. The group of 15 includes Brad Raffensperger, the Georgia secretary of state and the only incumbent Republican in the five battleground states who is seeking re-election. Raffensperger has consistently rejected Trump’s stolen-election allegations in the face of intense pressure from many fellow Republicans to overturn Biden’s win in the state. Nearly all of the Republican contenders have stressed a need to curb mail-in voting, to limit ballot drop boxes and to take other steps to curtail ballot access. A majority said they backed a Republican push for more audits or other investigations of the 2020 vote, despite dozens of audits, recounts and court rulings that confirmed Biden’s victory. Shawnna Bolick - an Arizona state representative and a Republican contender for state elections chief - has gone a step further. She proposed a law empowering the Arizona legislature, currently controlled by Republicans, to overrule the secretary of state’s certification of popular vote results. That call for a drastic change in how America chooses presidents comes after Trump’s unsuccessful attempt to get Republicans in states he lost to send electors for him instead of Biden to Congress."
Special Report: Backers of Trump's false fraud claims seek to control next elections excerpt: "The Republican secretary-of-state candidates are part of a much larger party effort to exert more control over election administration following Trump’s false fraud claims. At least 18 Republican-led states have passed voting restrictions they say are intended to ensure election integrity. Democrats argue such measures are intended to suppress voting because Republicans fare better in low-turnout elections. Georgia and Arizona have put greater power over elections in the hands of Republican-controlled state legislatures. In Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Arizona, Republican lawmakers are pursuing partisan audits of the 2020 vote. The long-delayed results of the audit in Maricopa County, Arizona - launched five months ago - are scheduled for release on Friday. The false voter-fraud claims by Trump and his allies have inspired hundreds of threats of hanging, firing squads, bombs and other violence against election officials and their families, Reuters has reported this year. A Reuters investigation this month revealed that U.S. law enforcement has held almost no one accountable for the barrage of threats and intimidation of election administrators. read more"
Special Report: Backers of Trump's false fraud claims seek to control next elections excerpt: "In normal times, most voters might struggle to name their secretary of state or detail their election-oversight duties. But these once-overlooked races are drawing far more attention and money this year from both parties, according to interviews with party officials and a Reuters review of political fundraising records. Campaign finance reports from Georgia and Michigan show donors from both parties piling aggressively into their races early in the cycle. Georgia candidates raised $1.8 million between February and June - nearly four times what was raised in the same period of 2017 ahead of the last Georgia secretary-of-state election in 2018, according to campaign finance disclosures. In Georgia, Trump allies are eager to unseat incumbent Republican Raffensperger after he rebuffed Trump's request to "find" just enough votes to reverse Trump’s Georgia loss. David Becker, an election expert and former Justice Department voting-rights attorney, said Raffensperger and other secretaries of state last year formed a bulwark to protect democracy under extreme pressure from Trump and his allies. The prospect of those allies running elections, he said, “should chill all of us.”"
Special Report: Backers of Trump's false fraud claims seek to control next elections excerpt: "If one of these con artists became Secretary of State, and President Trump tried to make the call he made to Secretary Raffensperger - to someone with less integrity, who denies democracy - what happens if that person takes that call?”
Finchem, who Trump is promoting for AZ Secretary of State, was a speaker at Trump's pre-rally on January 5 before his insurrection at the Capitol.. Special Report: Backers of Trump's false fraud claims seek to control next elections excerpt: "In Arizona, Democratic Secretary of State Katie Hobbs is running for governor, leaving her seat an open race. She won by a single percentage point in 2018, and both parties expect another extremely close race next year. Trump last week endorsed Finchem for Arizona secretary of state, praising his “powerful stance on the massive Voter Fraud.” The state lawmaker is now seen as a favorite in the Republican primary. Finchem declined an interview request. In addition to promoting voter-fraud claims and calling for Arizona to decertify Biden’s win, Finchem has expressed views linked to the QAnon conspiracy theory, which casts Trump as a savior figure and elite Democrats as a cabal of Satan-worshipping pedophiles and cannibals."
Special Report: Backers of Trump's false fraud claims seek to control next elections excerpt: "Georgia is shaping up to be a key 2022 battleground, with competitive Senate, governor and secretary-of-state races next year. These elections will be a major test of whether Republicans who crossed Trump can survive primaries - and whether those who backed his election-fraud falsehoods can win general elections against Democrats. With Trump's support, Hice is seen as the frontrunner in Georgia's Republican nominating contest. Hice has raised $580,000 between February and June, more than doubling Raffensperger's haul of $249,000, according to campaign finance disclosures. Hice has been among the most strident backers of Trump’s baseless stolen-election claims. In the hours after the Jan. 6 riots, Hice was among 147 Republican members of Congress who voted against certifying Biden’s election win in at least one of two states that came up for a vote."

Trump and his attorneys goofed on their lawsuit against his niece and the NY Times. They said that the actions of the defendants in the case 'can't be understated'. (In other words, his niece and NY times are as innocent as can be). They meant 'can't be overstated'.
