Trump tactics to overturn election could have staying power

Civil war between MAGA, GOP establishment could hand Dems total control
Make no mistake: President Trump continually telling Georgians that their votes were manipulated or tossed to benefit President-elect Joe Biden could potentially make the difference between a Republican-controlled Senate and a Democratic-controlled Senate. Attorneys Sidney Powell and Lin Wood, whose calls for boycotting Georgia next month over alleged voter fraud have resulted in heavy blowback from the Republican old and current guard, are also throwing kerosene on the fire. Polls show a razor-thin advantage for Democrat Raphael Warnock over Kelly Loeffler, while Jon Ossoff and Sonny Perdue are deadlocked, respectively. If just enough Republican voters stay home, it will be easy to discern why that occurred.
Trump’s Legal Losses Come Fast And Furious
“Judicial acquiescence to such entreaties built on so flimsy a foundation would do indelible damage to every future election,” he wrote. “Once the door is opened to judicial invalidation of presidential election results, it will be awfully hard to close that door again. This is a dangerous path we are being asked to tread. The loss of public trust in our constitutional order resulting from the exercise of this kind of judicial power would be incalculable.
Exactly!
Blanket COVID-19 liability shield will cost taxpayers
As a starting point, it is important to remember who is protected by immunity and who is harmed. Immunity from civil liability for negligence does not prevent harm or injury. It simply shifts the burden and costs to the person or group who has been injured — and all too often, to the taxpayer. The legal standard for negligence requires a plaintiff to prove four separate elements: duty of care, a breach of that duty, harm, and a causal connection between the harm and the breach of duty.
Biden Is the Perfect Figurehead for the Post-Trump National Security Establishment
The prospect of four more years of Trump was what decided this election. It was the overriding imperative of those who cast their votes for Biden. Corporate and establishment Democrats expect their left-wing critics to vote for them every four years without question or negotiation. This expectation is almost always delivered as more of a threat than an ask. And when Democrats lose, they blame the left. Yet election after election shows that when they do win, elite Democrats do not believe that they have to offer any meaningful national security appointments or policy changes to these voters. History shows us that they are much more interested in finding common ground with the violent imperial visions of right-wingers and neoconservatives. And Joe Biden is indeed the perfect figure to drive that reality home.
Fox News host tells Trump lawyers ‘you don’t deserve to win if you’re that stupid’ 😂
In a mocking tone aimed at the likes of Powell and Wood, Ingraham said:
“Do the suburbanites need a reunited Republican party or do they need to people running around saying ‘Oh don’t vote and January 5th because that would be perpetuating a corrupt process? When I heard that the other day I almost fell out of my chair. You almost don’t deserve to win if you’re that stupid, I’m sorry.”
Meet the aspiring king of Trump TV
The investors, he says, are domestic, despite a Politico report (picked up on Breitbart) indicating he was in talks to raise money from Qatar. Ruddy says he sent proposals to many sovereign wealth funds, among others, but has not taken foreign investment. He blames his former rival, Steve Bannon, for pushing the Qatar story, but such grudges are fleeting in the often-shifting alliances of the new right: Bannon’s podcast, War Room, is now also broadcast on Newsmax late at night on weekdays.
I find it hilarious that the same crew who insists that Twitter/Facebook are “censoring” them, immediately spins around and insists that it’s totally obvious that Parler must remove “trolls, hate speech and harassment” without recognizing their own hypocrisy.

Yes, Parler has the right to censor/moderate, but I find it ironic!
