    Look at this losing presidential candidate alongside politicians and mainstream media personnel spread lies to the American people and question an election all while spreading misinformation with no evidence. Should these people have consequences? They are spreading a conspiracy theory as true all while creating division in this country.

    So before we start to engage in a debate I want to make sure the premise you are expressing is what you intend.


    Are you saying Trump's actions taken to discredit the 2020 election is the same as the controversy with the 2000 election with Gore and Bush and Hillary Clinton claiming that Trump possibly collided with the Russian government to release DNC private correspondences?

    Is that the claim you are making? Like the whole fake electors scheme, threatening election officials to find the exact number of votes to pull ahead, threatening the vice president to throw out election results to allow a GOP controlled House to dictate the election etc are the same thing as going to court over the Florida Chad fiasco in a election seperated by a few thousand votes?

    Sesame Street should have taught you as kids that one of these things is not like the others.

    At this point if you still believe/support Trump, you’re not a patriot, you’re in a cult.

    Prosecutors are going out of their way to stress it's not about speech rights rather what he did to corroborate his "imaginative words".

    Calling Biden a losing candidate is sour grapes and projection from typical Trumpanzee

    One key distinction being that one proceeded through the proper channel (the court), and the other was a collection of attempts to subvert the proper channel?

    you are so gawd damn stupid. You start this idiotic thread and I guarantee that you won’t bother responding to any of the foregoing posts. Because you are an idiot.

    @AroundTheWorld you are stupid for liking this idiotic post.

    I haven't responded because its the exact same thing yet dumbasses like you can't admit it because ya'll are too stupid to understand your very own hypocrisy. The election was denied during Trump's entire term because of a conspiracy theory with no evidence. The election integrity was questioned and denied based off of some bs hoax that Russia hacked the election. The election was not safe in 2016 but was safe in 2020? Or was that just because your old incompetent pedo candidate won? Gtfo, just call it how it is. None of the people in the video will face a single repercussion for lying, for spreading misinformation and denying an election. They can question the integrity of the election but Trump can't.

    Ah, I see our old friend cognative dissonance dressed up as the logical fallicy of false equivolence decided to stop back in and say hello!

    The reason why they're fundamentally different and incomparable, if you actually care to know, is because only one of them is comprised of illegal/unconstitutional attempts to overturn the election. Does that make sense?

    Only one of those elections was also legitimate with an announcement on election night, only one of those two elections went smoothly without mass mail in ballots dropping over night. Trump had every right to question and challenge the election, there was plenty of things going on at the moment that weren't adding up. Yeah, Hillary and co weren't trying to overturn the election with their bs conspiracy. Sure buddy..... You go on and believe that, they were just trying to make $hit up for giggles.... There was no intent in claiming Russia hack for 4 years. Ya'll are gullible AF.....

    Hillary Clinton just floated the possibility of contesting the 2016 election

    “I don’t know if there’s any legal constitutional way to do that,” she says of contesting the election results. She added: “There are scholars, academics, who have arguments that it would be, but I don’t think they’re on strong ground.” She does go on to immediately note, however, that elections have been overturned due to fraud in other countries."

    https://www.cnn.com/2017/09/18/politics/hillary-clinton-2016-trump/index.html


    Yeah, if she had half of what Trump had she would have done the same thing. She was still considering it yet she continued to lie to the entire country knowing damn well she lost. This isn't new. Just double standards.

    You are trolling right. Hillary Clinton believes that Donald Trump collided with Russians to hack DNC EMAILS. Nothing to do with claiming the vote totals are fake news like Trump does.


    Stop it. Stop trolling. I know you aren't that stupid.

    Again nothing to do with saying vote counts were fake.

    The Trump campaign literally were trying to make the entire county of Fulton County's votes dismissed as fraudulent. The largest Black voting district in America they wanted to flat out reject.

    No, not anywhere close to the same thing


    Like for one, DNC EMAILS were actually hacked and leaked. So someone definitely did it

    Your own link says she didn’t try. She even acknowledges there wasn’t a constitutional way to doing it.

    again the difference isnt what Trump said but what he actually did.

    Have you read the actual indictment?

    I tried reading the indictment, but after seeing HYPOCRISY a thousand times over, I went and watched wut old Tucker had to say about it to give my heart a better workout.
