Trump - The Long Goodbye

Hardly a word from Trump since his presidential election defeat but he took some time today to "broadcast" to his supporters:

Trump repeats fraud claims then goes to golf club

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/elec...-2020-54786937

President Trump has sent another flurry of tweets. He again sought to sow doubt about the integrity of the election, reiterating unsubstantiated allegations of widespread voter fraud and a "stolen election".

In tweets that appeared to quote former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Trump wrote that "we should look at these allegations" of "voter fraud".

Trump is mounting legal challenges against election results in some states, but is yet to produce any credible evidence of large-scale voter fraud.

For now, though, Trump appears to have taken a break from Twitter to go to his golf club in Sterling, Virginia, for a second day in a row. He was pictured hitting the fairway there on Saturday.
Inevitably, sooner rather than later though, Trump will return to the political arena to spew forth unfounded accusations and deliberate lies in order to "stir up" his red-necked mugs and chumps .....

I could almost feel sorry for him but such are his myriad crimes against everything, I'll resist the urge and just relish the schadenfreude.

Trump escapes to the golf course again after tweeting that the election was 'stolen', as Don Trump Jr. and Eric Trump demand 'manual recount' and Melania Trump calls for 'complete transparency' amid sign of family split after Jared Kushner tells Donald Trump it's time to quit

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...time-quit.html

Trump's eldest sons launched a fusillade of morning tweets claiming their father's defeat was fraudulent Sunday, in a sign of a split from their brother-in-law Jared Kushner.

Don Jr. and Eric both retweeted claims from Republican operatives that included the late boxer Joe Frazier voting in Philadelphia and that counting software was rigged against Republicans.

Eric called for a 'manual recount' of all ballots - which would amount to as many as 150 million - because one county in Georgia said three days ago that it was briefly delaying counting due to a software glitch.

'Software from hell! There needs to be a manual recount of every ballot in this country right now!' he said.

And Don Jr. retweeted an anti-concession demand accusing Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania of 'rampant fraud.'

It was unclear early Sunday whether either son has spoken to their father since his defeat was called by networks just before midday Saturday.

But it was revealed late Saturday night that their brother-in-law Jared has been urging Trump to come to terms with defeat and offer a concession.

Re: Trump - The Long Goodbye

Cannot bear the thought of a defeated president ignominiously being evicted from the white house. The ultimate humiliation for him and America.

I think American's did not vote Biden in, they voted Trump out.

Expect Trump to engage in a 'scorched earth' policy. He will do all within his power to make his supporters believe that the election has been stolen, and, in doing so, cast doubt about the legitimacy of the election.

Numerous high ranking Republican politicians have publicly stated that Trump should take his beating like a true president, and let democracy reign supreme.

What if he's right though.

Personally I think he should bow out in a dignified way and admit to defeat but that's not who he is.

Can you imagine if his suspicions were proved to be true.......wow, that'd make a great movie

Re: Trump - The Long Goodbye

If he was right, Trumpy's lawyers would have fallen over themselves to present any and all credible evidence that they could scrape together that would back his case. They were unable to present ANY such evidence and their cases are being thrown out.

No, Tachy, I don't suppose for a minute he was right.
