I am going to blow a gasket

"Mueller she wrote" says they are getting emails for donations for a Senate recount of some close races. What I need is a recount of the presidential race, at least in a couple states! Is everyone going to just lay down and take this?!? This is it, we have to push and we have to know now , we won't be in control to ever know again. I'm an literally going to blow a gasket that no one appears to be doing anything, even hear on DU people are just moving on or fighting about whose fault it is. Guess what? We DID NOT do anything wrong. For fucks sakes, it s the highest of in the land and the world and so much power and money they will be in charge of.OF COURSE THEY WILL CHEAT! Sorry for yelling, I need to know who is on team recount presidential race right now!!

I did realize that but I don't see him posting anything about a recount of any states on the presidential races. Have you seen anything?

since it is state wide may shine a light on the presidential race.

If you watch Nicolle Wallace Elias is on every Wednesday. He may be on today so I am going to watch.

Are there any billionaires who can spare a couple million, like Mark Cuban, or maybe he doesn't want to be in the crosshairs?

There was a lot of confidence before the election that the Dems were going to win and we'd have a female President and hold the Senate and win the House.

As a result - comments were made by Harris, Biden and many Dems that the Dems would - if they lost - foster a peaceful transfer of power. That was an easy thing to say - with the knowledge that they would win the election.

It was almost like they were lured into making that commitment.

But the Repugs and Tr**p had a lot at stake and I feel that they went all out to lie, cheat and steal this election. I couldn't believe that they were as confident that they were that they were going to win. They approached the election most matter of factly and over confidently. Tr**p even said - he didn't need the votes.

In fact - I read a number of posts here on DU that said - it appeared that Tr**p wanted to lose or that he was throwing the election. Near election day - we even heard that the Repugs internal polls were indicating that he was going to lose.

When he actually won - the Dems seemed like they were backed into a corner to concede and proceed with a peaceful transfer of power. They were committed to keep their word and not give a hint of talk of cheating or stealing because they didn't want to look or sound like Tr**p in 2020.

A lot of us have suspicions about the results. A lot of non-expected numbers that were and still are non-challenged seem to defy credulity.

In one day - the whole thing flipped 180 degrees - and the Repugs that were not going to survive as a Party - and Tr**p that was finally going to be held accountable - became - how and who do we blame in the Dems for this loss - and the Dem Party needs a complete makeover.

What happened?

These are just thoughts that are ruminating through my brain since the election. I'm trying to keep my mind off of these thoughts by only watching Hallmark movies (I need some happy endings to get over my demoralization).

Thank you for letting me vent with this post. It seems like the Repugs, Tr**p and the MSM are the ones benefiting from this win. The MSM will have their sugar baby in the WH soon and they will be rolling in the bucks for the next four years.

Very well said, thank you for the thoughtful response. I agree with so much of what you're saying.

Don't forget to add the part about him giving the microphone a blow job. My tin foil hat theory is Putin said if you want to win you need to act like your giving the microphone a blow job, I mean WTF? !

You know they are going to be all up in arms about this, if we do. Media will be asking more of the "wrong" questions. How is this different than what Trump did last time, instead of going yeah this is a strange thing how top of the fucking ticket on every battleground states went to Trump and all down ballot stuff went blue. nope, it didn't happen.

I heard that Harris has "quietly" asked for a recount in certain areas.

Why "quietly?"

Would asking for a recount constitute "bad manners" for our "fierce prosecutor?"
The lying rapist bigot felon had no problem bellowing loudly for recounts in several swing states.

I know there’s no clear evidence, but I think with Trump some auditing is needed. He often accuses others of doing/being what he is. We know only he would cheat.

Don't you think that's why they stole it In such a big way so there would not be a recount, unfortunately it did the opposite because there no way in hell this guy took the popular vote.
All done ballots going to Dems but switching to Trump at the top of the ticket.

That they need to have a recount In WI, MI ,PA at the very least. A hand recount , those states all have Dem governors and I see no reason they can't help.

until Dems can keep the republican assholes from cheating. Use the fucking money you receive to hire good investigators. Our message is good. We need to hire some smart people to find out what the fuck these MAGAts get up to—from top to bottom. We the grassroots must shut shit down with efforts that, frankly, we don’t have the stomachs for, this to support our investigators. MHO

The very necessary and important recounts are being processed and should be a subject of important debate as soon as the Jan 6 felons are pardoned. What did I say? Am I crazy? They'll never do any real recount. I'm pretty sure the don't know how.
