Yeah we are into the whole “one man’s freedom fighter is another man’s terrorist” terittory..It wouldn't be viewed by Republicans as a coup, because they wouldn't know what a coup was, even if their leader created elaborate plans to subvert an election and whipped up an angry mob to take down Congress during an election certification vote.
"It was just a sparkling riot."
I just think it's funny you just can't allow Trump to be responsible, "sure, the scheme happened", "Trump was only associated with it because of bad lawyers". Yet this is the guy you voted for twice, and apparently he's got no agency of his own.Butt Nugget.
Trump election deniers already in place in multiple swing states
These Swing State Election Officials Are Pro-Trump Election Deniers
Nearly 70 pro-Trump conspiracists are election officials in key battleground counties — and they are poised to make a giant mess on Election Day.www.rollingstone.com
But it’s moot if he manages to attempt to cheat in Georgia or Nevada or Arizona. As long as the blue wall rust belt holds, Harris has 270The plan would be to disrupt congressional certification and throw the election to a vote by state delegations. House “state delegations.” Like what almost happened last time, “no valid certification on January 6th, let the states decide.”
Some MAGA election official refuses to certify a county in a battleground state. Repeat in a couple more states. The states are thus unable to do a final and official certification to send to Congress. No candidate gets the required number of electoral votes, and the election is thrown to the House, where each state delegation gets one vote. Since the Republicans have more states they would give the election to Trump. They have to count the votes on January 6th. If the states don’t certify and send to Congress, I’m not sure what even a good VP could do in that situation.
That model assumes Harris takes Nebraska district 2 ~ which isn't a certainty. Could also end up in a 269-269 tie scenario.But it’s moot if he manages to attempt to cheat in Georgia or Nevada or Arizona. As long as the blue wall rust belt holds, Harris has 270

They didn't.
"I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."
'Make your voices heard' to what end? What were the voices supposed to be saying? Along with "hang Mike Pence" they mostly seemed to be saying "don't certify the vote, don't accept the election results". i..e the "voices" were demanding a coup.
They want to throw in doubt bases on "because we said so"Here's another of their angles of attack
Georgia Elections Board Passes Rule That Could Delay Election Certification

Yep, Republicans have deliberately blocked fast election results in Pennsylvania and now apparently Georgia. Pennsylvania, which is quite likely to not only be close, but could very well swing the election, is still prohibited due to repeated Republican blocking votes, from processing mail-in ballots until election day. Which means it could easily be 2 or more days after the election before results are known.They want to throw in doubt bases on "because we said so"
They're constantly trying to sow doubt using the general public's notion that results somehow must come on and only on election night, despite the length of time between elections, certifications, and people taking oaths of office.Yep, Republicans have deliberately blocked fast election results in Pennsylvania and now apparently Georgia.

Why would this be an issue.
Your orange god wants nothing to be certified, no matter what.
Why? Because it helps show democracy and voting doesn't work and we supposedly need a new kind of government.. an authoritarian one headed by him.
Sounds totally reasonable too, doesn't it?
Seig Heil, mein fuhrer!
Is there any reason to believe that results haven't been accurate and complete until now, or is this just a way to jam the elections, delay, and sow distrust in the election results if they don't go GOP?So you are against the election being complete and accurate and that the results are a true and accurate accounting of all votes cast in that election.

No one here is opposed to that as a concept and you know it.So you are against the election being complete and accurate and that the results are a true and accurate accounting of all votes cast in that election.
Strange that you elected not to bold "reasonable inquiry"...The rule states that the board can only certify an election “after reasonable inquiry that the tabulation and canvassing of the election are complete and accurate and that the results are a true and accurate accounting of all votes cast in that election.”
Why would this be an issue. Don't we all want "true and accurate accounting of all votes cast".
