Donald Trump rode into office pushing muscling and violence for his cause…
He will leave office riding the same…
In Pennsylvania. and across the country ….
Republican election officials have stuck to the law and done their jobs…
That has been to count and certify election results that confirm Joe Biden winning the 2020 Presidential election…
In this crazy assed American political world we live in?
Donald Trump IS egging on people to throw the election results out and make him the winner continues…
The true hero’s in the election ARE the election officials and workers who maybe Republicans….
But are standing up to sore losing bully (and his followers ) who will thankfully out of office in a little more than a month….
Pennsylvania Senate Majority Leader Kim Ward (R) laid out in stark terms the pressure she and other Republicans are experiencing from their base to boost President Donald Trump’s corrupt war against the 2020 election results.
In an interview with the New York Times published on Wednesday, Ward described the backlash that she would’ve been dealt if she openly stated that she didn’t want to sign her fellow Republican colleagues’ letter last week requesting that federal Pennsylvania lawmakers invalidate the state’s Electoral College votes for President-elect Joe Biden.
“If I would say to you, ‘I don’t want to do it,’ I’d get my house bombed tonight,” Ward said.
The Republican leader told the Times that she did not join the other 64 Pennsylvania Republicans who signed the letter because she did not see it before it was sent last Friday.
Ward also said that Trump had called her to claim her state’s voting process had been plagued by voter fraud (no such voter fraud has been proven to exist, contrary to Trumpland’s claims), similar to how the President called Pennsylvania House Speaker Bryan Cutler (R) twice last week…

This post which I’m sure you intended as a puff piece in your continuing effort to show how “reasonable” Republicans “really “are,ironically shows the opposite,,,,
How damn nuts they are.
I don’t join in this newfound zeal on your part and others in congratulating people for simply doing their jobs.Indeed that whole concept seems slightly ridiculous to me.I don’t think you understand that this article points up how crazed the base of the Republican Party has become.
This woman was scared her house would be bombed if she didn’t join in this insane effort by Trump to steal an Election that he quite obviously lost.
These are people who are so full of some kind of undefinable hate that they are barely rational and are threatening their own party members for not being imbibed with the spirit of insanity that appears to have seized the Republican Party.
Hillary Clinton caught Hell for calling them “deplorables.”She was wrong.Theyre a bunch of kooks,hoodlums and out and out nuts!

Michigan AG Dana Nessel opines that Texas AG Ken Paxton who filed that case against the Biden states that is before the Supreme Court and who is also under federal indictment did so to curry favor with Trump so as to wrangle a pardon ala Flynn.
Seems reasonable to me given the obvious frivolity of the so called “ case.”

The Supreme’s ain’t going for this grandstand play by Trump & Co.
The guy lost….
Trump needs to shut the fuck up and pack his bags
My Name Is Jack says
17 states that Trump won have files “friend of the Court” briefs essentially asking the Supreme Court to hear the Texas case.
It’s pretty meaningless legally;however, it once again shows the fealty of Republicans to Donald Trump and that the idea that they are going to abandon Trump once he leaves the presidency is a pipe dream.
Trump will remain the major player in Republican politics for the foreseeable future.

Please read the post here about threats of violence against those who ‘speak up’….

I read it.
A few weeks ago you were laughing at that type thing.
My Name Is Jack says
The Republicans don’t want him to “pack his bags” and they certain don’t want him to STFU.
They’re all “in.”
You need to accept that .
jamesb says
Yea Jack that’s why the House REPUBLICANS voted to support the Defense Bill Trump doesn’t want?
And McConnell is getting read to approval with veto proof majority?
He, he, he….

They call Biden already to smooth the way for future deals….
The House GOPer’s that made gains nearly mentioned Trump….
But u keep selling this…
