    but if the republicans haven't been allowed to observe the votes, its near impossible to prove anything.

    so the question is really, have all voting processes been followed correctly?

    if yes, no problem.
    if no, a problem.

    They have been allowed, and in accordance with the proper processes set in place before the election.

    What Trump has gone to court for was for observers to be allowed to go closer to the counters. That's in excess of the proper process, but has been allowed. Dems are challenging that, but regardless, it's not a case of impropriety or anything being done wrong.

    It's surely time now for Republicans to cut Trump loose and disown this dangerous talk and legal actions. I know that they want to hold on to the presidency if they can but in reality, the tail has been wagging the dog for the past 4 years anyway.

    She also added that the issue that the Trump Campaign has been going to the supreme court over is quite insignificant, there are hardly any late ballots received

    do twitter censor lies?

    When it is coming from the President in the middle of an election they certainly need to add warnings about what he is saying when it is evidently false and lies.

    Yes this is total House of Cards stuff

    You'd really have to hope that it isn't.

    If its House of Cards stuff, then Trump's ranting is softening the ground for something else much bigger.
    Hopefully it's all just Trump having one of his tantrums.

    That nonsense about the observers in PA, being appealed according to a poster upthread.

    According to the secretary of PA, it was about the distance the observers (both sides) had to be from the staff.
    It's not a republican only change, its both sides.

    They factcheck tweets relating to sensitive topics like elections, and add warnings if there's no proof.

    Most of Trumps tweets have a warning on them.

    They have been allowed. You know they've been allowed. They are creating misdirection and misinformation. You should feel angry that they think you are that stupid to swallow this nonsense.

    So I'm seeing comments from Irish Trump supporters, saying no don't follow that news outlet, check out Fox, you will get the real news. Then when pointed out Trump now hates Fox, they say oh yeah Fox went like the rest. This is within seconds
    I'm honest to god worried for our own country with these idiots, who let's be honest, mostly vote for Sinn Fein, the polar opposite to DT.
    We've gone from The Twilight Zone to One flew over the Cuckoo's nest

    yeah they are getting over 50k extra votes in tomorrow and said it will be Sunday or Saturday for final tally up, plus trumps BS about non residents could delay it further.

    Seconds between the statement of

    To
    Fox is bad.
    And these call other people sheep. The irony is frustrating

    It is hard to conceive how any rational, reasonably intelligent, right thinking human could support a personality like Trump as president or even has a friend or colleague.

    What floors me more is the realisation that there are people here in Ireland who like him, support him and hope he does well.

    Like what is wrong with people?

    I know a few Trump supporters here and honestly I could have predicted them. Idiots, no careers, fond of conspiracy theories.


    One guy has a MAGA hat. He might as well have IDIOT on it.

    No, that was it!

    A Pennsylvania court ruled that Trump campaign observers could stand closer to watch ballot processing in Philadelphia!

    It's called a precedent, right now it is just hiding it, soon it will be blocking completely. And I used the word disputed because they use it, meaning that the power over information flow is being concentrated in a couple of corporations. All politics aside I don't think that's good for the world.

    Facebook in particular has a huge part to play in framing susceptible people's opinions to such an extent that continued reinforcement of these beliefs makes it very difficult to reverse.

    It does strike me as ridiculous that you can get 50k 3 days after election day......

    It's not like the election date was known in advance....
