I must admire Republicans for their “no you haven’t just cut off my arm” pig headedness. The new line about the Texas AG suit and it’s hasty dismissal is that: Hey, it was dismissed for lack of standing, not because of all of the bullshit that it claimed were actual real things. See? The courts didn’t rule against the bullshit. Republicans, again, it’s another opportunity to give yourselves a big pat on the back. You guys are something. ---

I made a little modification to this - now the theory is that if they write in Trump for both Georgia races they will _ **create joinder** _ between the two Senate races and it will therefore be mathematically impossible for Trump to lose. ---

This thread will save Democracy! But: If a cop shoots a sov-cit, does the sov-cit create joinder by the act of dying? ---
