Because Eastman is correct. |
About what? Be specific. |
I’m not sure why you’re shouting at us all but: anyone who votes for the GOP this time is a fascist. “Just recount until we win” is not democracy, nor is most of the voting related crap the GOP undertakes. |
Eastman engaged in sedition and needs to be disbarred if not prosecuted |
Disbarred and prosecuted. WTF is Merrick Garland. WTF is he doing. |
That is confusing. Votes recounts are an official process. Why would we have a process for something that is against the democratic process? |
What are you confused about? Eastman wasn't asking for a recount, he was asking for the votes to be recounted in Trump's favor. That's not democracy. |
Unless he said "jimmy rig the recount and add votes for Trump" or "take away votes for Biden" it isnt corruption. You can use authorized processes as much as you want. It is futile, but not corrupt. |
It's corrupt if you intentionally abuse the process. |
Abuse would need to be procedurally defined. By their nature, every request for a recount is a challenge to the outcome of the election. People are allowed to do all of this-- recounts, litigation, pursuade people to their side. They are not allowed to assault Congress to prevent vote certification. The rest is fine. |
Narrator: This is corrupt. |
Asking for a recount so the results are switched, without substance, is not fine. That is POST-RIGGING an election. |
Except he did say to take away votes from Biden. He suggested throwing out all the absentee ballots and deduct votes in proportion to what was believed to be the partisan breakdown. He wasn't even proposing throwing out individual votes but an estimate of what he thought the breakdown was. |
He needs to be put against the wall. Seriously, the man is a corrupt fascist. He needs to be the example of what happens when you try to rig elections and overthrow a dutifully elected President.
There must be the gravest of consequences for such treachery. |
