Trump’s Panic is Palpable in His FURIOUS and Scary Saturday Tweetstorm: Increasingly Dangerous
The small “d” democratic wall held, America’s Constitution and its judicial branch held, just enough good people held, just enough of the non-Trumper GOP understood.
There are some brave Republicans … heroes, yes – that’s what we’re prepared to call them, much as we didn’t like Kemp at points before, in the end, he backed democracy and the Constitution, so did his Secretary of State, Raffensperger. Ducey in Arizona, a previously Trumpy guy, simply wouldn’t put Trump ahead of the Constitution, democracy, and his own duty and ethics. The judges will have their jobs for life. Each of the three men mentioned will almost surely be voted out in their next election.
Moreover, Trump’s own election security chief both ensured the “fairest election in American history” and then stood up for his work. Across the country, garden variety regular citizens like us did the work that preserved the integrity of the vote. These, too – are heroes, people no one will ever hear from or about. They did their jobs.
That was the wall that resisted the pick-axe taken to it by an insane, crazed, and craven president, and far too many of his cultists running at least 18 states and 126 members of the GOP in the House. It was the ultimate fitness test.
In the end, our SCOTUS tossed the lawsuit with a 9-0 vote, 7-2 on standing, and the other 2 saying they’d simply have ruled against it. The system held and it will hold through the Electoral College on Monday.

But Trump will simply not give up. It is not in his DNA. And proved that with a furious and embarrassing tweetstorm this morning that should humiliate every American as it shines a light even deeper into the dark recesses of hid demented mind:
It began around midnight by Trump quoting someone else saying what he wants to say: (We save space by combining strings, read all from top to bottom)
….The American people deserve answers, better late than never.” @IngrahamAngle

The ultimate selfish outlook, stupid and short:
The Supreme Court really let us down. No Wisdom, No Courage!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
Below, he still doesn’t understand that simple power doesn’t do it in a constitutional land:
….that, after careful study and consideration, think you got “screwed”, something which will hurt them also. Many others likewise join the suit but, within a flash, it is thrown out and gone, without even looking at the many reasons it was brought. A Rigged Election, fight on!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
Above, ironically, HE could have gotten standing but it wouldn’t start at the Supreme Court, only states v. states get to go straight to the SCOTUS, he doesn’t get it and doesn’t want to get it. Laws mean nothing, he means everything. This is a dictator.
“We’ve not gotten any court to judge this (the vote) on its merit.” @DanPatrick of Texas. It is a legal disgrace, an embarrassment to the USA!!!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
The lawsuit was a disgrace and the A.G. of Texas needs a pardon.
Below, he pretends it’s about the senate race, but quickly makes it about him:
Georgia GOP Chair Says ‘We Are Trusting No One,’ Promises ‘Eyes on Every Part’ of Voting Process https://t.co/AzXwby5Qrd via @BreitbartNews You can’t rely on @BrianKempGA. Unlike other governors for the many states I won, he lost total control. Signature verification???

Thank you, Justice Alito. Thank you, Justice Thomas. https://t.co/ki0ZpARWhQ

Alito and Thomas said they’d have heard it and ruled against it.
“Justices Alito and Thomas say they would have allowed Texas to proceed with its election lawsuit.” @seanhannity This is a great and disgraceful miscarriage of justice. The people of the United States were cheated, and our Country disgraced. Never even given our day in Court!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
This is propaganda. They would have allowed it to proceeded and then voted against it, but it would’ve bought Trump more time to whine and try to put off other things – like invalidating the E.C.
I WON THE ELECTION IN A LANDSLIDE, but remember, I only think in terms of legal votes, not all of the fake voters and fraud that miraculously floated in from everywhere! What a disgrace!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
He will say the above until the day he dies.
Below, Trump always, always, demonizes and takes revenge:
Who is a worse governor, @BrianKempGA of Georgia or @dougducey of Arizona??? These are two RINO Republicans who fought against me and the Republican Party harder than any Democrat. They allowed states that I won easily to be stolen. Never forget, vote them out of office!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
I have been doing this. I agree! https://t.co/1YTTGwxlxx
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
Above, oh no he won’t. He will declassify everything that makes his opponents look bad, but he won’t declassify things like his phone calls (which are surely destroyed by now.) Nor will he share his taxes.
A big disappointment! https://t.co/esmB5HrJlH

IF Biden gets in, nothing will happen to Hunter or Joe. Barr will do nothing, and the new group of partisan killers coming in will quickly kill it all. Same thing with Durham. We caught them cold, spying, treason & more (the hard part), but “Justice” took too long. Will be DOA!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
Above, “Hunter” was always a political prop, we heard the phone call. But in terms of dropping it, it’ll be like firing Comey, right?
WE HAVE JUST BEGUN TO FIGHT!!!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
And that, above, is the really scary part. Sure, it could just be about raising more money, continuing to have the rubes pour it in because “they have just begun to fight,” or it could involve something far more sinister, like saying he doesn’t recognize the E.C., saying he doesn’t recognize the House final certification, potentially martial law and potentially simply refusing to leave, forcing people to force him out.
Why didn’t Bill Barr reveal the truth to the public, before the Election, about Hunter Biden. Joe was lying on the debate stage that nothing was wrong, or going on – Press confirmed. Big disadvantage for Republicans at the polls!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
The “Big disadvantage for Republicans at the Polls!” is exactly why DOJ has a rule in which it doesn’t announce any new investigations or release any significant news on investigations out of fear that they’ll interfere with elections. DOJ normally does all it can to stay out of politics. Trump is furious that they didn’t give him an advantage. Furthermore, they opened an investigation. Anyone can “open” an investigation, it proves nothing – ask Donald Trump who claims the Mueller investigation cleared him.
Oh, and Obama never “announced” they were investigating Trump and Russia even though it would have been a big advantage for Hillary.
Wow! Thousands of people forming in Washington (D.C.) for Stop the Steal. Didn’t know about this, but I’ll be seeing them! #MAGA
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2020
And the true danger begins.

Peace, y’all
