‘National Embarrassment’: Christie Blasts Trump’s Legal Team As Election Challenges Fizzle | Talking Points Memo

Now that the states that were key to Biden’s win are certifying their results, and not showing major issues with the election that might cast doubt on the result, there’s very little room for Republicans to claim fraud anymore. The Republicans have seen the writing on the wall for a couple weeks, they just don’t want to anger the Trump base by bowing to reality. The time is up for that though, the election is over and Biden has won, and that’s been confirmed every possible way now…if they continue to say that Trump won they know that they are choosing nonsense.

Note that it’s retired Republicans like Christie and in office politicians like Hogan saying this though…we’re not seeing a flood of others admitting the truth. That bodes very badly for the future…may people thought that the Republican party would shake off the racist Trump supporters once he lost, but I think they now realize that they need to keep it up in order to keep the really extreme voters engaged and voting, otherwise the rest of the nation will swamp them. The situation is actually worse now than it was, and as long as a segment of America continues to insist on creating a white Christian theocracy we’re in for a lot of agony.

Slowly, their voices will rise out of the Bottomless Salad Bowl and Endless Breadstick Tuesdays.

From the All-U-Can-Eat Frozen Yogurt Self-Serve to the Pizza/Pasta/Chow Mein Station.

A mighty chorus will rise up, with a single (mouth-filled) cry!

*Offer excludes Ribfest Specials and Fried-Food Fridays.

Conservative media in disarray? I’ll bet they never saw this day coming, and it’s probably why Charles Koch is having some agita. It just sucks when you bring down a democracy for tax cuts you don’t even need.

Ok Chris, it’s time for an intervention. Gather together enough of Trump’s family and close associates to confront him with the uncomfortable truth that his current wacknut legal team is not working. It’s time to get competent, professional representation… tell Don to get on the phone and call Oily Tights!!!

We are way beyond embarrassment! This is fast entering the area of treason and a complet breakdown of our democratic system of government. People wonder how Hitler controlled the psychic of Germany, just look at 70 million Trump disciples and you have your answer.

That’s because the GOP pols tapped into a region of public thought called “mania”…that which appeals to heightened emotion and illogic. And also the free feeling of the non-responsibility a mob enjoys

They knew what it would bring.
They knew that it would be uncontrollable
They knew it would (permanently for some people) divide the country
They knew it would destroy the political integrity of the country
They knew these things and more

Their craven, evil, greedy natures made it a slam-dunk call, and no one should forget that.

When the Golden Carrol closed in our area closed I ask a Trumper what he thought.
He told me he was put on suicide watch.
