@PhillyProud12 They will match but close to 20m is due at signing. They will want as much time as possible to get everything in order. Thats why it’s going to go down last minute.
@JustTheTweets17 Stop with this shit. I despise Trump but even I know some asshole tried to take him out. There is no conspiracy. A teen found a hole in the SS coverage and took it. This is dumb. To think Trump planned this for his advantage is laughable.
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush When critical thinking requires ignoring 60+ courts, Trump’s own AG, Republican officials and believing a vast coordinated conspiracy with zero whistleblowers it’s not critical thinking anymore. It’s a tin foil hat with extra steps. 😂 Have a good one man! It’s been fun!
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush Media rhetoric doesn’t equal election fraud. You’ve gone from 315K ballots to judicial cowardice to death threats to standing to 1960 to Jim Crow. Meanwhile 60+ courts, Trump’s own AG and many more all disagree with you. So much for critical thinking
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush Jim Crow was Democrats in 1960. Those Democrats then became Republicans after the Civil Rights Act. That’s called the Southern Strategy and it’s well documented. Boss Tweed was 1870. We were talking about 2020. Interesting pivot.
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush That’s how standing works. You prove legal stake BEFORE evidence is examined. Best lawyers money could buy. Couldn’t clear the most basic threshold. The evidence wasn’t strong enough to even get in the door. Never mind the fact that the “evidence” is junk.
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush 😂😂😂 So now 1960 was stolen too? Every time a Democrat wins it’s stolen? At what point is it just… democracy working? Republicans have won elections too… were those stolen from Democrats? Or does fraud only flow one direction?
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush Exactly. Which means the cases were too weak to even qualify for examination. You can’t blame judges for not examining evidence that your own legal team couldn’t present well enough to clear the most basic legal threshold. 60+ times
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush Never said threats aren’t real. Lifetime appointments exist so threats don’t determine outcomes. And ruling FOR Trump meant heroism and protection. Ruling AGAINST meant being called a traitor. They chose the harder path 60+ times. That’s not cowardice.
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush If they ruled for Trump they’d have been heroes to 74 million voters, protected by a sitting president and celebrated by the entire Republican party. That was the SAFE move. Instead they ruled against him and got called cowards. You’re describing the opposite of cowardice.
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush Judges get death threats every election cycle from both sides. That’s why lifetime appointments exist specifically to protect them from pressure from ANY direction. They acted accordingly. Examined the evidence. Found nothing. 60+ times.
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush Bellwethers correctly predicted 9 of 19 elections historically. 47% accuracy. Worse than a coin flip! You’re using a metric that’s wrong more than half the time as fraud evidence?That’s not a statistical anomaly that’s bellwethers being exactly as unreliable as theyve always been
@ish_sober@peterbakernyt@alanfeuer@NYTnickc@GlennThrush The death threats came from the right! They went to Raffensperger, Georgia election workers and Pence for NOT overturning results. The pressure was TO overturn the election not to uphold it. Judges with lifetime appointments ignored all of it. That’s the opposite of cowardice.
