FOR trump?
Am I to take it that Republicans now want to do away with electronic voting machines? (see Sidney Powell).
If such a result comes about because of all this sore loserism then what a great turn of events that would be!

I'm confident that Georgia's hand recount will closely match the machine tabulations. And trumpians everywhere will be DEFLATED.
