    Except for the fact that it's actually true. It actually happened. Someone, somewhere gave the ok to actually do this. And even worse, America's Mayor (TM) turned up to jump through the hoops. Didn't bother to question the fact that he was giving a live speech in the back lot of a whatever the f*ck it was.

    Giuliani is an obviously successful former prosecutor who suddenly became dumb when he started representing Donald Trump, does that not even cause a twinge in any part of your brain? BuT HE SpOkE To RusSiAn SpY AnD hE'S An AlCoHoLiC I rEaD iT In Me NeWsFeeD

    reports of riot police gathering in white house. hopefully nothing dumb happens.

    Hopefully Biden asks everyone at every site to just head home.

    Cheers, now get home!

    I see another "policy" is to "heel" America.

    Heel it from what?

    Americans really are crazy.

    Are you ok bud? You seem really upset.

    Because there is an audience for that in Australia

    maybe not so strange. Australia is very near to China and they may be very au fait with the politics of China.

    Whereas the Australians themselves are more in the adventurous, buccaneering mould?

    i'm saying if trump can prove one, then he can call into question the whole thing. 'if 1, why not more?'

    that's the tactic i think he will use. its irrelevant really as it turns out, as in January it goes to Pelosi i think if the election result remains in question.

    So trump's end game (i think) will be to do that, so he always has (in his mind) that one silver lining to hold on to.

    if the above scenario is the case, what happens? pelosi until the house votes on next president?

    there have always been isolated cases of voter fraud. they are not going to overturn an entire election because somebody voted on behalf of their dead mother. Trump need to prove the election was rigged systematically. And he can't prove that because he doesn't have any evidence.

    So if Hillary can find one from 2016 we can roll back the last 4 years then?

    It won't happen like that. The court cases will fail badly as they have so far this week. Judges have literally laughed Trump lawyers out of court in Georgia and Michigan already.

    Sky Australia is the way it is because it is owned by Rupert Murdoch. Nothing to do with china. australia is 6000KM from beijing at its nearest point. not really very near.

    It doesn't work like that.

    Ultimately I think this litigation efforts are all a desperate damaging salve to his wounded ego. He has no chance of success and succeeding isn't the real objective anyway.

    Biden just increased his margin by 1600 in Georgia after the latest dump of 1900. He is over 9000 ahead there now with not many votes left to count.

    thats 84.2% of that tranche, presume clayton or dekalb county?

    If I was asked to give a live interview in a back lot next to a porn shop - I work in IT by the way - I think I'd have the sense to refuse and assume a colossal mistake had been made. Good luck with whatever you have going on with your caps lock there.

    Eh hang on there a second: Dublin is closer to Beijing by about 800km than Sydney is.

    you can't win a case by saying "here's one example of something illegal, therefore everything is illegal". it's the equivalent of the chewbacca defense.

    This crowd in Wilmington looks so much more positive than the toxic crowd at MAGA rallies.

    if he can prove 1 case of fraud in every state (he lost), he can question the outcome in each of those states.

    i agree, it wont matter a damn. but this is what i think he will try and do.

    also agree that systemic rigging was so far from happening. i just think he is pot committed to this course of action and is too stubborn to back out now.

    There could easily be a case of voter fraud. It is a serious crime in America. I don't know but imagine there have been convictions in the past, it doesn't nullify the vote of millions of people.
    I'm fairly sure there have been cases in our own country off voter fraud but incidence is too small to have any affect on election outcome.

    I like to keep an open mind. I would recommend it to you.

    No evidence then. Thanks

    Australia is not near China and I don't think the Aussies would take kindly to you describing them as pirate fungus.

    Individual cases of voter fraud have happened at nearly every election and been prosecuted. None of those elections have ever been thrown out in their entirety. It won't happen here either.

    but does he then not appeal to the next court until he ends up in the SC?

    It’s nothing to him, he can afford it, an outgoing president who cares not a fûck, not one fûck about democracy, not one interest in anything aside from his ego, business, business community blahhh blahhh... mad times we are living through... he’s given the Democrats 20 years plus of ammunition if he goes ahead, people will simply stop trusting the Republicans, stop voting for them en masse, I’d say the republicans are ready to fûck him under the bus.

    No. The cases were thrown out for lack of evidence. There is nowhere to go after that.

    i just think trump will try and do this. i don't think he will be successful but he's a sore loser.

    as an aside, how did the voter fraud happen?

    Supreme court will not bail him out if he gets there.
