You didn’t post an algebra problem, you made a claim. An emotional claim.

Is there a point where playing politics crosses to conspiracy for you in this realm? Or is it limited to a non lawyer President following advice from some of his lawyers regarding an election?

Most of his posts are emotional. He posts opinion with a little data thrown in. His position will change in this thread.

There is nothing wrong with emotion adding to your position. It just needs to be balanced rationally.

ALL posts are emotional. Humans are emotional beings. Unless we are discussing mechanics or something, emotion will be involved.

Why are you using emotion as a negative? You’re obviously trying to insult him by saying his posts are emotional, as if yours are not.

Well that's where evidence is necessary, and very little, if any legitimate evidence has been shown publicly over these 2.5 years.

I just want to see how far he will take it. I know he’ll take it all the way but it will be interesting to see nonetheless. Unfortunately I’ll have to check back tonight as I have work to do now.

I'm not. Emotion is a survival instinct.

Review any of his past "dug in" threads and the pattern is obvious.

When he's wrong, its only because youre not smart enough to understand him.

You mean her formulation of a legal theory based on witness assertions, and based upon the fact that no clinically sane person believes Biden garnered 81 million legit votes?

Just like you and most liberals. Find the nearest mirror.

Russia, Russia, Russia

The persons who promulgated a bullshite FISA warrant should have faced prosecution. But LEO protects LEO in our police state. They lied in a forum where this is not permissible and can easily rise to criminal fraud (similar to Powell, actually).

Schiff? No. That was politics in a political forum.

If they knew the underlying claims were bullshite, then they knew Trump wasn't facing anything other than vindication, ultimately.

It's not the opinions. The Left really don;t have them. They get daily talking points.

Anytime you will justify anything but "Yeah, that's illegal as hell" about the Jan 6th committee destroying files and evidence, you lose any leg to try and preach about anyone else.

She believed insanity, bro. She got caught up.

What legitimate witness assertions did she have to rely on?

You don't get to file lawsuits b/c of some esoteric belief that a result was fraudulent.

Again, we're back to legitimate evidence, of which she had none.

But she believed she did, for a time, because she got caught up.
