Adult thinks it's ok for a president to usurp Congress if that president truly believes a falsehood. Actual conservative Bill Barr thinks differently.
Also, this is the president Sally thinks did a pretty good job.

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod The question is, and will be raised throughout these hearings, does it matter? In deeply polarized times, when 70 percent of Republicans accept a blatant lie that the election was stolen, will minds be changed by evidence? Right now, Trump remains '24 @GOP frontrunner.
1. Biden didn't campaign and couldn't get 12 people to a grocery store parking lot for a rally. Anyone with working eyes or ears knew Trump had it in the bag.
2. The first clue was apparent on election night when counting was paused in the middle of the night, all of the monitors were thrown out and then counting resumed without them and Biden magically got 99% of all the votes counted in secret...
3. There was enough smoke to warrant looking for the fire.
4. If only you leftist idiots cared half as much about BLM and antifa which destroyed half the country as you do about the 15 morons in the Proud Boys...
5. Democrats have a riot and loot a Walgreens when they burn their toast.
6. So they behaved like Democrats for 1 day...
7. Contesting elections is constitutional. Democrats ALWAYS contest the election when they lose. Hillary Clinton and Stacey Abrams STILL don't admit they lost.
8. When you're completely ignorant like you are you think everything is unprecedented. In 2016, leftists and never Trumper morons tried to get the electors to not vote for the guy who won the election.
9. Imagine how stupid you need to be to think Trump launched a coup which was 100% dependent on Pence without asking Pence is he was on board. Or, after finding out Pence wasn't on board, he launched the coup anyway knowing it would fail. You are a MORON.
And if Mike Pence is a "really bad person" you are worse than Atilla the Hun...
10. It is PROTOCOL to evacuate dignitaries when there is danger... They evacuated Pelosi and Schumer too even though their lives are literally damaging the country. Protocol is protocol.
You're a MORON.
Biden didn't hold covid spreaders like the orangeman was having.
How many masks are you wearing right now? Be honest.
Imagine being duped by right wing propaganda telling you voter suppression is actually election security.
Imagine being duped by left wing propaganda telling you that voting laws are voter suppression and remotely comparable to Jim Crow despite the following primaries getting record turnout...
Craig Harrington @Craigipedia It's totally insane that the January 6th Committee feels it still has to prove that Donald Trump knowingly committed crimes and wasn't just too stupid for his own good as he kinda sorta attempted to install himself as dictator.
If you are pulled over for speeding you actually cannot defend yourself by claiming to not know the speed limit. But apparently you can lead a coup against the United States government by just sincerely being stupid enough to believe your own lie.
This is why Trump is going to get away with it. Even if Merrick Garland wanted to do something, which he clearly doesn't, our legal system is basically trapped by itself. Nixon was right. When the president does it, it's not illegal.
I take full responsibility. He's not Trump. Mission Accomplished. Biden could end up being the second worst President ever (behind Trump of course), and I will still be glad I voted for him. ANYONE but Trump. Again, mission accomplished. Biden will not attack our Democratic Republic, so we could slip into a DEPRESSION while Biden is in office and I wouldn't care. There could even be evidence that the Depression was a direct cause of what Biden did in office, and I would STILL be glad he's in there rather than Trump. I won't LIKE a Depression, but it is better than having a serial lying autocrat who tried to overturn a fair election in office...and it's not even close.
NO.
You voted for Biden because you are an idiot. There is no other reason. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Leftist logic:
Trump was an "AUTHORITARIAN" constrained by congress and the constitution.
Trump also plotted a coup which was entirely dependent on Mike Pence playing his part. Trump did this without ever asking Mike Pence if he was willing to play along.
You people are so stupid you can't even understand how stupid your argument is...
The S&P 500 slipped into bear market territory in an early trading bloodbath on Monday morning as rampant inflation and the increasing likelihood of a recession spooked wary investors.

it wasn't totally dependent on pence. The mob took his place in the coup attempt.
the idea was that the house Rs would object to the vote (done) Pence or the mob would stop the count, the states would send fake electors, and by the time the congress could reconvene to sort it out, it was too late, and the vote would be thrown to the House, which would elect Trump.
it was a chain of events that didn't really need Pence, but he could have helped. The goal was to stall until the vote got tossed over to the House.

Well, these are the same people who fell for the Russia hoax - peepee tape and all. We’re not exactly talking about the cream of the intellectual crop here. 😂😂😂😂😂
President Biden, speaking to donors at a Democratic fundraiser in Los Angeles, said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky “didn’t want to hear it” when U.S. intelligence gathered information that Russia was preparing to invade. The remarks came as the war continues into its fourth month. “Nothing like this has happened since World War II. I know a lot of people thought I was maybe exaggerating. But I knew we had data to sustain he “was going to go in, off the border," Biden said of Russian President Vladimir Putin. “There was no doubt,” Biden said. “And Zelensky didn’t want to hear it.” Although Zelensky has inspired people with his leadership during the war, his preparation for the invasion – or lack thereof – has remained a controversial issue.
The votes that came in late were from overseas military who historically vote republican.
Mass mail in voting was used and they didn't even check the ballots.
In Nevada, the overall rejection rate dropped from 1.6% in 2016 to 0.58% in 2020.
In Pennsylvania, the 2016 rejection rate of 1.0% dropped to virtually nothing at 0.28%.
In Georgia, the 2016 rejection rate of 6.8% dropped to a mere 0.34% in 2020.
“In the 2020 race, Georgia election officials received 1,320,154 mail-in and absentee ballots. If these ballots had been rejected at the 2016 rate of 6.8% instead of the 2020 rate of 0.34%, there would have been 81,321 ballots rejected instead of the 4,489 ballots that were actually rejected. “Under the conservative assumption that 60% of these mail-in and absentee ballots went to Joe Biden, this dramatic fall in the rejection rate provided Joe Biden with an additional 16,264 votes. That’s more than the margin of the alleged Biden victory in Georgia.”
Meanwhile, the late night ballot dumps in the battleground states had a reality defying 90% turnout for Biden.
Only morons, liars, and people who haven't even given it any thought think the 2020 election was legit.

agip - what does "usurp" mean?
to take over by force.
the congress is supposed to count the electoral votes. Instead, potus sent pence, a member of the executive branch, to stop congress from doing that. The mob also tried to usurp congress by stopping them from doing the count.
It's a tiny bit complicated becaise pence as veep is technically also a member of the senate. but come on. he was sent to usurp as a rep of the executive branch and everyoneknows that.
Point here is that Adult seems to have no problem with the executive branch sending force over to take power away from the Congress. Just as long as the prez really really really really believes something. Even if the prez is mistaken.
