What is the mentality behind "Questioning results, and asking for transparency or auditing is a threat to democracy"?
Isn't this kind of mentality itself the greatest threat to democracy, as it leads to Putin getting away with 130% of the vote?
I know you can just say they're being sore losers, but who cares if they're sore losers? If the results of an election can't be verified, then why should they be trusted?

Dont you know its only democracy when they "win" ?

So we quit being a democracy back in '16 but now we are suddenly one again? Do they even listen to the shit they say?
 
Is anyone else excited to have a president who's not a pissy cunt?
You'll be waiting at least another 4 years then since Harris is nothing if not a pissy bitch.
Also speaking of pissy. do you think that now their team is winning that the washington post will lose the 'democracy dies in darkness' slogan?
 
Sounds about right although even without an automatic recount statute you can go straight to court. I assume in the optional states there will be some strategic choice of forums. While the recount statutes usually require some threshold, filing suit in the absence of such a statute, or outside of the availability of a party requested recount, would probably require allegations of actual fraud or some evidence of it, something Trump's allegations of fraud have usually been entirely lacking in. If he loses it's fraud every time.
All of his voter fraud lawsuits are being thrown the fuck out already.

I just checked the recount laws, looks like he could actually get one in Michigan too if he alleges fraud (he will), but Arizona's off the table unless they land within 0.1% of each other, which doesn't seem likely.
 
It’s not called yet but this tweet is blowing up. Lots of salt in the comments.
