Good, sit the fuck out while I proudly vote for Kamala in Georgia. And when you finally realize that you are in a cult led by one of the most moronic people to ever waddle this Earth, don't come whining to the rest of us who told you back in 2015 just the piece of shit Trump was then and still is now.

Thank you for your service

Trump is going to do everything he possibly can to pressure Kemp and Raffensperger to commit election fraud -- up to and including threatening their families, I'm willing to bet -- because he knows that's the only possible way he can "win" his dictatorship.

I did what I could and sent a form-message to Raffensperger to do his duty and step in if any counties do not certify the election results properly. Or to find a way to remove the openly biased election officials who vowed to disrupt the counting/certification as much as possible.

I don't think it will reach up that high, it will be the pressure on all the local election officials to delay and deny the count, even (especially?) in precincts that they're winning.

Threatening families is something he's done multiple times in the past.

The one saving grace for me this election cycle is watching the Republicans panic over some dumb shit the guy they nominated says. You let this raccoon inside, don't be surprised about all the garbage everywhere.

Oh no!

Anyway...

“He’s a bad guy, he’s a disloyal guy and he’s a very average governor,” Trump added.

Being disloyal is the greatest crime possible to this shitbag.
