The plan is to show that the vote in AZ was incorrect and that Donald Trump actually won ...

Last edited Fri Apr 23, 2021, 07:57 AM - Edit history (1)

It is a dangerous continuation of the "Big Lie" and seeks to give credibility to the lie that the election was stolen.

Rachel did a segment about this tonight on her show. The GOP is bringing in a bunch called the "Ninjas" to do an audit of of 2.1 million votes in Maricopa County. (Never mind that there have been four audits already)

The plan is to fix it so that doubt is cast upon the election of Joe Biden as the new President. It is a continuation of the sedition that began right after the election in November.

The FBI cannot let this type of criminal charade continue.

So -- IF -- and that's a BIG "if" -- they "prove" that tRump won Arizona, then what?

Will the AZ State Police remove Joe Biden from the White House?

Will the AZ National Guard remove Joe Biden from the White House?

This gaggle of loons, halfwits, and goofballs will step all over their own dicks and become the butt of jokes. Meanwhile, ol' Slow Joe will continue to return America to the greatness we enjoyed before tRump.

All this stuff is just cementing their decline, drip by drip. The demographics, the young, the suburbs, women, minorities, the metro areas are all becoming more and more against them each election cycle.

I keep saying they are grossly overplaying their hand.

Of course that could make them more dangerous, (literally not politically,) in the future.

Keep the momentum on passing voter suppression and election stealing legislation.

Keep the funds coming

And any real belief or further insurrection is a bonus.

There were 2 recounts
SOS signed off and verified the vote as accurate as did the gop governor

Biden was certified to have won 306 electoral votes.

IF these Nazi’s say no, that would flip the E.C. by 11 votes.
306-11 is 295.
That’s still 25 MORE votes than Biden needs.
This count will change nothing.
The single-minded stupidity of the GQP is astonishing.
