I'm seeing a lot of Democrats fighting. The thing is we have to fight in the right way.

Well the link there explains a lot. That was my point. But I wish that that group or someone else who is able would get together and make a website where there are also emails that could be sent very easily with templates to the people mentioned in that link. And then moving on to other Republicans that might have some bipartisan bent or understand that their people need Medicare medical social security etc. I am a bedbound disabled woman and I can't make all these phone calls and do all these things so I really do rely on others to set up some of this stuff to make it easier

Some members have also walked out. Many are holding up signs to the camera that says “lies”

Trump just claimed that social security was paying people 150 years old, fully two weeks after this was disproven as a default date. The audacity of his lies is breath taking!

His followers want so badly to believe him that they just keep slurping it up. The GOP is winning their disinformation war with sheer volume.

Unbearable how only one man put himself all the way out there.. why does it appear the dems out so impotent.. grossly anti climactic

No "mandate"...

Trump did not even get 50% of the popular vote!

He only got 1.5% more votes than Vice President Harris.

Trump lies all the time...

That's my suspicion too. I wish a detailed study of just how he took the swing states, at least, would be made. I have deep suspicions about Pennsylvania, for instance, where Senator Casey lost by 0.2% of the total vote to a carpetbagging millionaire.

Agreed. There are several tales of voting machine interference. And the muskrats are quite capable of they.

He’s lied all his life…childhood, school, college, draft dodging bone spurs, his divorces, his businesses run into the ground, lied to his renters, his property buyers, his wives, his kids, the courts. He wouldn’t know how to tell the truth if you slapped him in the face with a wet hoodie.

Have you looked at Smart Elections and electiontruthalliance.org? The election was rigged.

i hope at least you listened to Elise Slotkin (D-Mi) who did a very honorable rebuttal

Watched it later online. She did a good job. Those rebuttals can be career killers, but I think she nailed it.
