They aren't worried about norms, though. They are worried about pissing off Trump.

Probably not as he still has his flock, who are going to looking to primary anyone who isn't towing the Trump line.

I still think that the best thing for us as a country is for him to shuffle off this mortal coil as soon as possible.

Sydney Powell is just lying to the Supreme Court now. She claims that the legislatures of Georgia, etc. all certified an alternate slate of GOP electors. Of course, this is bullshit. All of these idiots cosplaying as electors were not certified by a state legislature.
She will suffer no consequence for this because no court will want to look "political" by sanctioning her. I note it here only because if I lied that thoroughly to a court I would almost certainly be sanctioned and probably fired. Other lawyers in this thread: What do you think would happen to you? The key, I guess, is to be so high profile that it becomes more trouble to sanction you than to just let you spin out your lies. |

Apparently Trump may not be able to live legally at Mar-a-Lago:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifes...781_story.html And this isn't something that's going to go away. His rich NIMBY neighbors want nothing to do with the Trump shitshow. They are not going to go away quietly. |

Basically, back in the 90s, he signed some agreement with the town that he would operate Mar-a-Lago as a club and not as a hotel or residence.
And the town hasn't really enforced that. But, now that it is clear that it's gonna be a four-year circus coming to town, the other residents have formally asked the town to enforce the contract and prevent Trump from living there. |

All it takes is one state, though. Then you have to report it to the other states you have a license in, and they will almost certainly have to do something. It's like insurance agent/company or doctor licensing - it becomes a snowball once you get fined/suspended in one state.

I don't think so at all. I'm not saying it plays to the general population any better than Trump's "suburban housewives" crap did, but this is just more of the war against intelligence, with the bonus of being misogynistic - which these people eat up. I mean, who hasn't heard of people who hold advanced degrees that are not strictly medical being called "doctor?" This isn't something new. But being a doctor makes you an "elite" and an easy take-down for the Trump rubes. Plus, as a woman she should have majored in cooking and cleaning, ya know!

Yeah, this is pretty much right down the middle for them.
Anti-woman. Anti-education. It managed to turn out more votes than ever for the GOP. It also managed to turn out more votes than ever against the GOP. |

The depth and nuance of Trumper thinking is:
You're only a doctor if you perform surgery. You're only a scientist if you work in a lab. |

They're going to unite in full on resistance of Biden with things like railing on anything he does, re-discovering how SUPER IMPORTANT the deficit is, and denying any of his appointees. There's more that keeps them together than apart. Unfortunately, the ratio between the carnival barkers and true believers is getting dangerously bottom heavy and I think those in the former category know it could spell danger for them eventually. But power is more important and they can solve that problem another day. SI

Yup. It is fun to do the whole "McConnell is the real enemy" bit when there are no stakes.
But when push comes to shove, the GOP voters, supporters, and politicians fall in line. |

Win a chance to blow up one of Trump's casinos!
City to auction spot to push demolish button on Trump casino I think this is a really creative idea and I hope they raise a lot of money.

So some of the conspiracy theorists are starting to claim that Biden/Harris will be sworn in on the 20th. And that is actually all according to the plan. Because they have to be sworn in to formally steal the election. So Trump/Q will let them get sworn in so that they can then be prosecuted for election theft.

Two former AZ Bar presidents and a few other attorneys have formally filed ethics complaints against 21 attorneys who participated in the Trump campaign lawsuits in AZ. We'll see what happens with that.

I didn't pay attention to election law before this year, so I was not familiar with Lin Wood or Sydney Powell. However, early on I kept reading about how they were respected lawyers and there must be something to these allegations for them to take on this case. Then, you know, we watched everything unfold over the past 6 weeks.
I say that to point out that Lin Wood has filed another election-related lawsuit - this time as both the attorney and plaintiff - in which he signs the pleading verification that the facts are true and correct under "plenty of perjury" (rather than under penalty of perjury). If this is performance art, he has surpassed the Spinal Tap/Best in Show team as greatest in history.

Ksyrup, after the Kraken fell short I think you just gave them their next rallying cry.
Judge: "And just what is different about these lawsuits Mr. Wood?" Lin Wood: "These go to 11." |

Apparently, there are some of the Q/MAGA people posting about the inevitable declaration of martial law, but from a personal planning perspective.
Like, people are starting to ask about when it is going to happen because they have a trip to Disney planned for the first week of January and they are wondering how it might affect their travel. I wanna shoot my neighbor for Trump, but maybe after the holidays, ok? |

Reminds me of the voice mail I once gt threatening to kick my ass over a student's grade. But they also made sure to let me know it would only happen after the summer when the Fall semester started.

Saw a WaPo story that says out of the 200+ mil Trump has raised since the election less than a million has gone to the recount fund. Everything's still a con.

Meanwhile, I still see smoke on Twitter about McConnell's race and the conspiracy that his and other GOP Senate races were rigged because they were run through voting machines owned by a GOP-controlled company. How does one fail to see that this is the exact same conspiracy-by-extrapolating-numbers-out-of-context BS that the GOP says should invalidate Biden's win? I mean, if they are right, why wouldn't it make sense to question Biden's win? This is an argument for competing frauds by voting system.
I don't know if it's helpful to make such leaps in judgment when there are other explanations. Several obvious things to me being: (1) KY is a closed primary state, so if you want to vote in a primary, you have to declare one or the other party. I am registered GOP and voted mostly Dem in this election. If there are a bunch of people like me in my county, does that make my county's votes look suspicious? Probably. I think there's too much of an assumption that people would automatically vote straight ticket and that McConnell getting Dem votes is unlikely. I doubt that premise. (2) McConnell is unpopular but an incumbent. That counts for a lot. (3) Amy McGrath was not an energizing candidate. I could easily see people being anti-Trump but not voting for McGrath. I have to imagine that many rural area Democrats are still pretty conservative, so the idea of a split government might be appealing. And, having a Senator from KY in a high profile position is preferable to Rand Paul and a freshman Senator.
