    The point for Trump is to save face. He didn’t lose he was robbed. The unintended consequences are that his supporters and senate republicans can maintain their position that a democrat didn’t win with 80 million votes, 51.1% of the largest total turnout

    If that is the point, it is pretty pointless. He's out of there on January 20.

    I actually think the point was to try to try to overturn the election results. Donald Trump could give a flying fuck about anything except. ... Donald Trump. More specifically his psychological need to be the bigliest, badest, bestest, richest, winliest.

    He might have wanted people thinking something shady happened, but only in so much as he thought he could start a shit show, get people riled up, and use those people to create chaos and overturn the election results.

    He can not deal with the reality of losing. Of not succeeding. Of being a loser. He has failed and lost at all kinds of things throughout his life, and his response has always been to throw a tantrum, or lie and bullshit over and over again to try to create a false narrative, or try to use the gossip pages to create the false narrative, or skip out on his debts on his business failures, or litigate relentlessly rather than accepting the consequences of his failures. And his experience was that he could delude himself into the false reality that he is th bestest at everything, because those tactics would wear people down and they'd give up and he'd just deny his failures over and over again and move on to the next thing.

    I honestly think he thought he could flail with similar tactics and turn his loss into a win. Except his bullshit found its limit on this.

    China was grossly negligent with the virus and their human rights record is deplorable. The GOP has called for removing human rights as a pre-condition of trade, unless the government is run by Muslims who don’t buy condos from the head of the Republican Party

    Look its NOT about Trump and what he wants, he's an ignorant, lying embarrassment to our country. Its about the voters who support him. That support his birther/voter fraud lies. They are a greater stain on our country. Take responsibility for your actions, and for them, that means owning up to supporting a grifter because he promised to (1) support the church at all costs and (2) give them huge tax breaks. Fatf*ck is irrelevant, its on you his supporters.

    Not a Malkin fan but Fox always has had women who make you yell at your TV screen: “God you’re beautiful but you’re so full of shit.”

    No one's worse than Coulter. Maybe if Sidney Powell started writing a syndicated column.

    Not worse than Coulter, although at Malin's worst she gave her a run for her money. A mean little chihuahua or worse.
