I think you might want to read up on all the stuff Trump tried to do. Having one or two low level, no name officials being the ONLY thing standing between the peaceful transition of power, and complete chaos is terrifying to this American voter.HooDat wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 1:48 pm You make my point. Even if we end up finding out that Trump tried to send an armed private army into the Capital Building to kill off Pelosi and Pence, the bottom line is - he failed. The system worked as intended. Power was transferred to the winner of the election. I am not saying no harm no foul. I am saying that the SYSTEM worked.
Any sane person understands that at no point were we in danger of Trump succeeding in over-turning the election results.
Yep, you're right, they didn't cave.
But what's your answer if this happens again, and these one or two State officials DO cave, casting doubt on who actually won the election.
Personally, I don't want the entire US empire hinging on the moral fiber of some guy named "Steve". Pretty obvious Trump found that this system isn't as filled with checks and balances as we'd all like to think exists in our system. It can come down to one man's honesty.
