I had never even heard of Dems putting pressure on electors until you brought it up. Looks like is was mostly a few disgruntled Sanders supporters.

Jim, there’s no parallel for this. A sitting president just brazenly committed what is most likely election fraud and his base couldn’t care otherwise.

dems putting pressure on electors was everywhere after the 2016 election. you were probably still too morbidly depressed, but i’m no making it up. it didn’t get the traction that decertification has now within the GOP. but neither did it get any public resistance from anyone i. the left. None.

it makes democrats look bad? in that case, it didn’t happen.

scott, you and i have had respectful but spirited disagreements here, as i’ve had with Detbuch and dangles. these guys are engaging in one, big circle jerk of TDS.

I am pretty clued in on news stuff and don’t remember this happening in the past on either side, but it clearly wasn’t at this scale. Maybe I missed it.

I am only hearing about the Barbra boxer stuff now (on a story on msnbc this morning fwiw)....

OK you know i think you’re fair and reasonable. it was in the news every day for 2 weeks in 2016. sorry, i’m not a liar bryan.

i said it wasn’t at this scale. but there was absolutely no opposition from the left. and if you consider all the excuses the left came up with as to why the 2016 election wasn’t fair, it was on this scale, hilary blamed her loss on everything conceivable, except losing fair and square. how many of the lefties here told her to just shut up and admit she lost a fair election?

If his base couldn’t care otherwise then why did a person who most likely identifies as R start this thread.
Stop being dramatic Jeff, your turtleneck is cutting off your circulation or Paul stole your password.

Just got another PM on another site from a member here stating what a scummy person you are and some instances from your past.

It is amazing that that has happened multiple times.
