have you actually gone and gotten the complaint document to see who the lawyers were? For even a single one?

Yes. The 1st and 5th on your latest list are not in any way associated with Trump's lawyers... There is no sensible argument for why the 1st could not be filed by Trump and had to be filed by other people (which is the unsubstantiated claim you blanket across two dozen lawsuits) because the 2nd on the list is the SAME LAWSUIT filed by the Trump administration.

Since 40% of the top 5 are wrong (and since you initially counted a lawsuit against him) I couldn't be bothered checking through the rest of your list. You clearly are arguing in bad faith and I have better things to do.

The onus is on you to back up your claims, and you have failed to do so.

:p
 
I probably should have said they were taken as part of trumps efforts to overturn the election. Most of the ones I've looked in to have lawyers connected to trumps other legal actions.

But you're right not all of them do. They're still part of the efforts to overturn the election though, and they have still failed, and there's still about 40 of them.

Regardless as I said I've had enough of this. Pretend you've won, I don't care. I'm done with politics shit for the rest of today.
 
Well, you just admitted you were wrong.
So - yes - I "won".
Have a nice day.

:D

I said there were about 40 and that he lost all but 1.

If you're arguing in good faith as you say, don't count ongoing lawsuits and lawsuits they dropped as lawsuits they lost.

Sooo, I can't count lawsuits they dropped as lost, but you can count me not arguing further as admitting defeat?

Right, whatever. Fine. You win.

Yaaaay trump, let's defend all the world's biggest fucking assholes.

Jesus christ the lengths people will go to to defend such a horrible person.

I can only think of one reason someone would defend someone that horrible.
 
PS. I'm not defending Trump.

You said he lost 40 out of 40 lawsuits.
That's not even close to true.

If a Trump supporter said something similar that wasn't true, I would argue with them... as you have seen me do with dalpat077, AutoTripper & JGrimez. Truth is important. You are parroting misinformation.

It depends why they dropped them. Look into it.

You certainly can't count ongoing lawsuits as lost (yet) and that's what you've repeatedly been doing throughout this thread.

I know a lot of Trump critics that contribute nothing to the world. They just sit on their lazy asses, taking money from the upper class and criticizing rich people for not giving them more. At the end of the day, at least Trump has made a contribution.

If he's contributed so much why is he so afraid of people seeing his taxes.

Are you suggesting you've contributed more?
Are you suggesting you've paid more tax?

I certainly haven't done either.

...

I'd appreciate it if you answer this question.

What's that?
 
He paid more in tax in 2005 than I ever will in my lifetime.

Later, in March 2017, journalist David Cay Johnston obtained the first two pages of Trump's 2005 federal income tax returns, which were given to Rachel Maddow and shown on MSNBC.[1][43] These pages showed Trump's gross adjusted income to be $150 million and showed he paid $38 million in federal taxes. The White House confirmed the authenticity of these documents.[43][44]

He has also contributed his entire presidential salary ($1.6M) to various US departments, including the department of veterans affairs and the parks department.

Is that enough of a contribution for you?
 
Im not sure. I think it might well have been tighter, but at the same time, trumps actions cost him the election, it wasn't because the democrats just put up such a fantastic challenge.

There is always some level of fraud in any election. So you would expect there to be some level of fraud in the third most populous country in the world.

Let me ask you this, do you think all the fraud occurred against Trump?
 
For the record, I didn't admit or accept that there was any level of fraud. I'm not actually sure. I haven't seen a conclusive example of fraud, but it would surprise me if literally none existed in the entire country. Which is why I phrased what I said assuming that there probably either was, or will be some level of fraud discovered.

As birdup said though, it's not important provided its nowhere near the margin the election was won by.
 
Hope it's alright for me to be interrupting here.

I stopped posting on all this shit yesterday because it's evident that it doesn't matter how you put any of these arguments across in favor of Trump: they want him out at all costs and that's that.

Also: sure does appear to me that the Biden thread is almost like sacred ground for one or two people in power here. So fuck it (there anyway).

For what it's worth: the two of you (@birdup.snaildown and @JessFR) sure do seem to be going to a lot of trouble to have a decent and proper debate and backed up by fact checking etc. Good on the both of you. Hats off to the both of you i.e. this really is a compliment and not me being facetious. I applaud both your efforts.

Only thing really that I'd like to add to your arguments is this:

It does amaze me the excuses (more like justifications really) being made by the left. Yesterday on the Holy Joe thread: it was at least admitted and accepted that SOME fraud took place. Just that the LEVEL wasn't enough to justify any action on anybody's part. And in reading through the current arguments on this thread: also seems to be a bit of a double standard i.e. doesn't matter that Biden lies through his teeth (or has done so anyway in the past). Just as long as it doesn't affect the outcome of this election and Trump is kicked out on his ear. In other words: everything and anything is acceptable just as long as it's the Democrats. It's a bit like saying well a little bit of fraud is alright. It's alright if I fleece your bank account just as long as I don't take the whole lot.

That's about it really.

My only other observation is the below:

I don't know if it's just the shit that YouTube is spewing forth or what. But right up until this morning: I'm not seeing anything that even remotely indicates that Trump has given up and is going to accept this lying down. Matter of fact: I don't know if it's because of the pressure or what but he sure does seem to have become very Presidential of late. And every time I look: there's another lawsuit being filed somewhere (some reports, as of this morning, not being even an hour old) (although who knows i.e. I've noticed more than once that dates and times of reports or videos have been somehow fucked with so I don't know if they've as current as they would appear to be). I don't know anymore. But he sure doesn't look like, nor is he acting like, a man defeated. Not yet and even at this late stage. And I tell you: I hope like fuck that somehow he pulls this one off and no matter how dirty he has to play. Just out of principle if nothing else. I have more respect for the man now than I've ever had. And that's saying something because I'll admit that in the last four years some of his outbursts have been cringe worthy at minimum. I think the biggest problem here is that he's exposed the shortcomings in the process and the rot that's been allowed to set in for decades. And how anybody can simply ignore the anomalies in the counts is beyond me. He didn't draw those graphs up in his spare time with a sharpie I assure you. Not to mention the testimony of a Colonel in the United States Military no less who gave testimony that not only is this Dominion crowd capable of guaranteeing the outcome of election results but they'd done it more than once in other countries' elections successfully. Not to mention the spiderweb between all of their associates and which can be tied back to certain prize individuals and their families. This is not conjecture. It's fact. And there's just way too many individuals coming out of the woodwork with stories of fraud and irregularities that they've actually witnessed (not hearsay). But I'm guessing the left would rather believe that they're just brainwashed mad people (maybe even on a payroll or some other excuse).

It's a travesty. And when you look at the groups that want Trump out so bad they can taste it: it's appalling. And very sadly: this is bigger than Trump or America. And therein lies the actual problem. For me anyway. And I wish like fuck that there was something that I could actively do about it. And I don't mean buying a ticket to the US and go protesting with some or the other lame placard hanging around my neck either. Anyway. Unfortunately I have my own shit to take care of and try get out of (and Trump and Republicans sure are not going to be helping me out). But given a different time and a different situation: I'd be there! And with bells on! Out of principle if nothing else!

I see that at least the French, of all fucking people, seem to be getting their shit together! (Off topic of course and falls in the "in other news" category but worth a mention anyway).

Not that anybody, I'm sure, will take the time or go to the trouble to watch it but I'm putting the video up anyway (the link below). Does that look or sound like a man that's about to give up or has given up? Not from where I'm sitting.



I don't know what his plan is. I don't know if it's to actually hold onto power right now. Or if this is just his starter for ten (for 2024). But this ain't done yet. That is my hope anyway.


I can promise you with like 99.99% odds, trump is done for now.

There's an outside chance he might return in 2024, but that's not super likely either.

But for 2020 till then, he's done.

There is no credible evidence. In the real world, the shit that passes for convincing on YouTube conspiracy videos just doesn't cut it.

": I hope like fuck that somehow he pulls this one off and no matter how dirty he has to play. "

That's exactly the point of this nonsense. To get people like you willing to let and encourage them to break the rules of democratic governance because of some imagined fraud.

It will fail.

You know how when they sell snake oil they always have all these testimonies? It's cause it's the easiest kind of evidence to get that proves nothing but that people buy into.

Testimony isn't enough because people lie and can be mistaken. You need hard evidence, and when you actually look at the proposed evidence objectively, it all falls apart.

You really think all these judges in all these states, many of them trump appointed registered Republicans, are all in on it? No. It's just that what's convincing in youtube isn't convincing in court.

I must say I'm a little disappointed in you. Even though we often disagree about shit, I took you to be a man of strong principles? (Insert joke from resident wanna-be comedians... "Principles? He supports Trump!" Drum roll. Pause for applause. Sigh.) Do you really not care what he does as long as the outcome is desirable for you? Personally I don't want him to win unless he's won. I get the strong impression you want him to win regardless. That's a slippery slope, my friend. Democracy is sacred. We can't start loading the dice and - at the same time - complain that the dice is loaded when we end up getting snake eyes.

Set your sights on 2024. This election is done. Even if there was widespread fraud, they're not going to allow him to find it. It's over.

Do I think that all the fraud was against Trump? Pure logic dictates that it couldn't be the case. There'll always be those that will take chances. But the data does not show it being done on an industrial scale.

The data doesn't show significant fraud in either direction. I'm certain there's more against Trump, but no evidence has surfaced so far that it's anywhere near enough to sway the election results in a single state.

(OFF TOPIC... You've said a couple of times that you're sober ATM. I'm curious: what's your DOC and why are you abstaining?)

PS. The rise of left wing insanity certainly is very disturbing.
 
It astounds me how the Trump types think it's the left that will do anything to win.

Obama capitulated his election straight away, trumps done everything to try and stay in power, trying to get state legislatures to bypass the voters. Telling his supporters to indimidate voters.

Trump put Americans in danger to help him win the election in his rallies while Biden was sensible and didn't crowd people together in a pandemic.

Fucking hypocrites.
