There is cash to be made in discord, not to mention notoriety. For a certain type of personality, the current state of political destabilization in this country is like the old gold rush days of yore. Stake your claim in Wingnuttia, with the most outlandish nonsense that you can dream up, sell it on social media and voila, you too might hit the mother lode and become a MAGA personality.
Enter one Sonny Borelli, Arizona state senator, convicted wife beater, and one of the leading voices of the Arizona fraudit. Borelli has a sure fire way to tear down the results of the 2020 election. It is flat out impossible legally, and he unquestionably knows that, but it sounds plausible to the MAGAs and if that will get donations and votes, then hip hip hooray. He’s got his out already planned in advance, when this foolish idea fizzles and eventually Arizona has to give up this farce in Maricopa County, it will be the working of the Deep State. You know it, I know it, and you can bet your boots he knows it.
One of the instigators behind the AZ Fraudit is Sen Borelli. In a podcast clip today being spread all over MAGA social media by seditionist Michael Flynn, he says that if ‘fraud’ is shown, AZ will “reclaim it’s 11 electoral votes,” then when another does the same, Biden is out. pic.twitter.com/5ulg3MBfgt

What’s that you say? You never heard of “reclaiming electoral votes” before? There’s a good reason for that. It doesn’t exist in time or space and sure as hell not in law, beyond this guy’s imagination.
It is a falsehood that keeps false hope alive and gets a lot of money in donations. As long as hope springs eternal, these people will push the lie. The last person in the world who will tell them to stop and move forward from the 2020 election is Donald Trump.
Now where this is coming to a screeching halt in the not too distant future, is that a superior court judge in Maricopa County ordered that a watchdog group could in fact have access to the records of the audit. So this little house of cards is going to fall fast and furious.
That said, we’ve also got the spectacle of Mike Lindell’s cyber symposium coming up in less than a month. It will be interesting to see how the narrative has progressed by mid August. Stay tuned.
Fucking bunch of looney tunes. They are all nuts and the idiots that believe them are even more crackers.
Maybe make fewer phones and burgers. Make a couple million straight jackets instead. You could call them Freedom Jackets, then maybe you might even get a few of those deranged GOP and Q cult people to put one on voluntarily.
I keep saying that we need to get those 74 million strait jackets and the same number of padded cells ready as soon as possible!
Freedom jackets with stars and stripes on the sleeves, a big Q on the back, and Grump on the front and they’ll fall all over themselves to get one.
Just ask Al Gore. Even after a Florida recount showed he actually won their Electoral votes AND the presidency in 2000, Dubya still got to be sworn in (and sworn at) and lie us into two wars in the Middle East (which Barry turned into seven).
LIEberman talked him out of fighting before the votes were even certified. And the fed courts should have said, sorry, it’s state law, not our job, instead of giving the Rs what they wanted.
I am.a. Boomer. So are many of my friends. The only time I voted Republican was in1976,you against Jimmy Carter because he as,an evangelical and I knew that once the Windows got into politics,they would dominate as they have. I voted for Carter over Raygun because the camel’s nose and it’s head a nd front legs were already in the tent and Raygun was much worse.
Carter is,a good and decent man, but he stank as president. Hyde Amendment was a disaster and he signed it. Never forgave him from that because I was a,Navy Wife and I saw a lot of very young pregnant women overseas. They couldn’t get an abortion in Japan without alerting g the base. If they went to a Japanese hospital, they would have to request a translator because medical.personnel.are not fluent in English. The request for one would list a reason. It would be all.over her work.space within 24 hours.
Don’t assume Boomers vote R. A lot of us are radicalized in the left direction. The older I her get,,the farther to the left I go. Voted for Sanders in 2016 primary,Hillary in the general; Warren in the 2020 primary, Joe in the general. So did all of me Boomer friends, raging liberals and proud to be. Why? Because even the conconservatives know that Rs want to.dismantle Social.Security and Medicare. Go yell.at white older men and evangelicals for the holdouts.
Hi all. Boomer here. Well, tag end but technically a boomer. Just so generalizations are minimized I have never voted for a ‘pube the first damned day of my life. My first election was President Carter vs. ronnie ram jet-I had the misfortune of having to listen to that a-hole in Philadelphia Mississippi, heard just how f*cking racist he was, and figured that was what republicanism was all about. I never looked back and have been pretty pleased with not voting for those racist f*cks. Hopefully, if any STILL think boomers are “radicalized by f.b.” understand this: I am likely considerably more educated than you are. Having studied a great deal of science I know the value of research and how to do it. I always start with the premise if it seems too fake, stupid, insane, crazy, cray-cray, koo-koo, etc. it probably is.
I do not appreciate being lumped into one batch. And in this case you can shoot into a crowd of supporters of the turd emperor and you have just as good a chance of taking out an elderly person, a millennial, gen x, y, z, or even a boomer. I noticed at Charlottesville just about the entire tiki torch parade consisted of men younger than my daughter. Whenever I see photos of the proud boys, boogaloo bois, etc. they are all under 30. I think someone’s generalizations are WAY off target and perhaps the person making those generalizations should perhaps think before they post. There is someone else who makes a lot of asinine generalizations-TFG.
Another Boomer here. Never voted Republican in my life. It’s totally stupid to think that an entire generation has the same political preferences. Even if Boomers statistically show greater support for Trump than younger folks, a healthy majority of us do NOT support him.
