Trump says he was only challenging the election results.

Trump is what he has always been...

A fucking liar

Maybe this will get the message across. Translating what happened into football. lol

"in an attempt to steal the trophy"....and hang the coach.

Mmm, no. It's more like he contested the outcome of a game, then berated the judges, then called them liars, then stole the game ball and [i]then [/i]urged everyone in the stands to storm the field for what he believes he deserves.

But politics isn't you regular golf game, where the ball spends more time in your hand than being played honestly. Outcomes matter. Consequences matter.

Trump's Attorney General, William Barr, explained it pretty well.

[sep][sep][sep]
Trump’s lawyers have argued that his statements were protected under the First Amendment, a position that Barr, in his first interview since Trump’s third indictment, said was not a valid argument.

“As the indictment says, they are not attacking his First Amendment right. He can say whatever he wants, he can even lie. He can even tell people that the election was stolen when he knew better,” Barr said. “But that does not protect you from entering into a conspiracy.”

Part of Trump's conspiracies was to get seven slates of phony electors from seven states, all with phony paperwork, and bring their phony votes to Washington. I don't know how to translate that into football terms.

Trump is a liar about everything.

Well, great. But he's not on trial for "challenging an election." He's on trial for heading a coordinated and brazen attempt to illegally overturn an election.

Right, just give him his day in court. That's about as far as the analogy could go. But when that didn't work...

@trollslayer 🤔much as you hate a decision sometimes you have to accept it as fait accompli . trump went too court too have the election result annulled and got nowhere 😆now that would tell me too call it a day as you are on a hiding too nothing with this one and just accept defeat

That sounds about right. And it is in language that the average person can understand and relate to. Well done.

The orange traitor is getting his talking points from his master, pootin.

I like your analogy.

Not sure it will help...

You find those hanging chads yet?

This just might be the best analogy ever. Translating it into language about a brutal sport these people inexplicably love.
