Who do you tip to win the US presidential election

[Lancer]

Thankfully its not up to me, I don't have to do anything. I am pointing out that Trump has in his back pocket the 2018 law, which I haven't read. Have heard it referred to as very powerful, so will see if Trump plays this hand. I think he will if he uses every other recourse to undo this coup before he does. Should he come right down to it, expect him to use the law. Then, you, as leftists, will all face personal decisions on how to react. My question is, in this case, what would you do?

[Jon Miller]

General Strike.

But the reason why those in power allow votes to remove them from power, is because at some point the only remaining recourse is revolution.

Another course. The state legislatures appoint Trump electors. It really is up to them. They see enough crap stick to the wall, and they, as elected officials, act to do the right thing. Its possible...

[Jon Miller]

Countries that voted for Biden represent 70% of the US economy.

I don't see how a coup by the economic and numeric minority will be successful.

It is not up to them. They can not change rules after an election.

That is authoritarian, just as if Trump decided to invalidate votes.

Right, good answer. However, Trump uses the law to do another election. Supposedly the law gives the President 'emergency powers'. This election is held in such a way that observers are allowed, that ballots don't show up in the middle of the night, etc. Meanwhile, you refused to work and lose your job.

It is actually up to them, sorry.

Trump is now claiming the FBI rigged the election against him. Pretty amazing.

[Ming]

Trump is sounding more and more like a delusional paranoid... In his Fox interview, he blamed EVERYBODY he could and continued to sprout his totally baseless conspiracy theories, and this time even throwing his bought and paid for justice department and the FBI under the bus as well...
And the best quote from the interview... "and I don’t even think we have to prove this"
So in other words, he doesn't have any proof, but doesn't think he needs any... He's over the edge...
But nothing he says will change the actual fact, HE LOST.

[giblets]

This spectacle makes me glad he lost

[Lancer]

I hope Ming, that if your concept of the election goes otherwise that you haven't invested too much emotionally. Hang in there, no matter what. Same for everyone...

[Ming]

I hope you haven't invested too much in this election. Because it's OVER. There has been NO PROOF of any of the conspiracy theories... No proof of any fraud... NADA...
And even Trump is saying he shouldn't have to prove it, because he can't.
The FACTS are out there... and he lost. And all his whining isn't going to change anything. He's been evicted
And while he acts like a spoiled baby, Americans are dying, and that's the real sad part.

[Lancer]

I'm glad. Actually you all make an assumption. It seems that unless someone sounds like you, there is an assumption of guilt of being a Trump voter. I am not, either election. I regret that now that I see what's going on, but I just never liked the guy. I'm a supporter now because I'm concerned at the state of the nation, and the loss of integrity in the election process. So, I'm fine, thanks.

[Ming]

What loss of "integrity"... no FACTS support that. Just the ramblings of Trump. After four years of that Bozo, he needs to be removed. He's a liar and a petty thug. Anybody that spends his whole day watching what people say about him and Tweeting like a school girl, doesn't belong in the WH.

[Ming]

And I make NO assumption of you actually voted for... But you have shown to be a supporter. And He is going down.
The actual FACTS support that... not some crazy conspiracy theories...
