    Right. It shouldn't be complicated. I believe you're saying evidence of fraud is... a court case that alleges fraud.

    Okay... Okay. I'm willing to hear you out on that one, but let's back up.

    Once more: What is an example of fraud that you believe exists?

     

    How many of Trump’s legal filings have been successful in proving fraud?

    Sooooo your lack of addressing the question and deflecting says being a Senator didn’t qualify/prep Obama to be a president from a leadership and decision making perspective, copy. 

    I answered an asinine question with an asinine, but factually true, answer. Obama met the basic qualifications to be President. Being “qualified/prepped” for leadership and decision making ability is subjective, not objective. Obama is also the guy who ordered the executive of Neptune Spear against Bin Laden, even when Biden told him to wait. 

    That’s one of the great parts of America. You can have an actor, peanut farmer, governor, lawyer, and now a con-artist be President. All bring pros and cons to the office. You’ll disagree, but that’s like, your opinion man.

    And if they do, are they automatically assumed to be a good leader just because they have reached the senate?

    The MAF considers one to be a good leader because they're good at tracking/editing awards & decs, performance reports, and setting up holiday parties. YMMV.

    That doesn’t address the question: Does a junior Senator actually lead anything?

    Subjective, he was the Chairman for the Subcommittee on European Affairs. He was law school professor, State Senator, and U.S. Senator. To skip being a Rep in the House to go being a U.S. Senator that young is pretty amazing.

    To be clearer though, you are surprised that a president who was previously a reality TV show host who's tagline was "you're fired" is firing people at an ABOVE AVERAGE rate? You find that surprising? I'm surprised with your surprise.

    Comparing Trump (who has been an executive for decades) with Obama (who had never been an executive) is not a valid comparison. WTF had Obama led before he became the leader of the free world? Seriously?

    He was a U.S. Senator, which last time I checked, is sorta a big deal.

    Gerald Walpin agrees with you. The fact of why he was removed is important.

    Except the bipartisan CNCS asked the White House to review Walpin’s conduct as IG. Unlike a president who removed an appointed key figure who stated facts, which wasn’t inline with the president’s partisan, and legally unproven as of yet, narrative he’s spewing.

    Actually there was a lot of discussion earlier this year about what he can/can't do with a pardon.  I believe it was on lawfare.  Their podcast dug into the past, and if Nixon could pardon himself.  Think this was it.

    The only time he can’t is over his own impeachment charges, per the Constitution. And it was held you can pardon people of potential crimes when Ford pardoned Nixon.

    The postal worker wasn’t recanted. He was bullied by a federal agent and then someone said he reacted which he immediately came out and said he didn’t recant.

    How does pay for play not equate to being a criminal. In Joe Biden’s own words he did that. And then dems later complained for what they claimed was the same thing done by trump (which proved to be a farce).

    If someone commits a crime the are guilty of doing that. No amount of jail time doesn’t make them not a criminal. Hunter Biden’s laptop has plenty of info on it showing evidence crimes were committed or strengthening other instances of crimes by those in the Biden family. It doesn’t make it not true just because you refuse to believe it

    In the words of Joe Biden, “come on man!”
     

    By “bullied by a federal agent” you mean being reminded that making a false official statement and lying to a federal law enforcement officers are federal crimes? Sure. Do you know that happened for a fact? Of course not, you operate on hearsay. To be considered a criminal one would’ve had to have been charged, convicted by a jury or judge, or plead guilty/Alford plea. Has Biden done any of that? Of course not.

    To say someone is guilty before being afforded Due Process goes against the Constitution and the judicial process of this nation. But it fits your narrative right? Is Hunter Biden’s laptop the new Hillary’s emails narrative?

    Everything you're saying is spot on - he was let down by everybody. There was a very similar incident at Spang a decade ago. They did the right things, determined it wasn't safe to attempt a landing, and did a controlled ejection.

    I only take issue with the statement above - the Viper RTU has assumed such an insane amount of tasks from the CAF that they can't possibly teach it to a safe level. Then AETC came down a year ago and told them to do it all in 180 days. The amount of tasks the Viper RTU teaches now compared to ten years ago is staggering. I've heard that airmanship ultimately suffers. The pilot in this mishap graduated without refueling due to tanker availability. It was alibi'd, documented, and sent to the CAF. Not a common business practice but when you open the production firehose this wide, quality suffers.

    Fast, Quality, Cheap - pick two. HHQ has mandated "fast". The RTU is operating with "cheap" in terms of maintenance, sims, and IP manning. Can't have all three, and we're proving that regularly. 

    When I was a -135 FTU instructor, we’d go to Luke once a month, for a week, and refuel all the B-Course studs day and night. This was easier to schedule due to being in AETC (and not having to deal with TACC). Is this not a thing anymore?

    You've look through all US presidential elections to convince yourself of this? I'm sure in 2016 there was a similar absentee ballot jump for Clinton, just that it wasn't enough for Trump to lose and wasn't spread on social media since Trump won that election. 
    Btw in Wisconsin and Michigan there were similar spikes in cumulative votes for Trump when several counties that were heavily Trump were reported simultaneously, but that doesn't fit the narrative now does it?

    Mail in doesn’t exactly equal absentee. Yes you mail in an absentee ballot but ultimately they are different.

    And how are they different? You’re voting outside of the polling area/polling time. They’re verifying your identity once they receive your ballot.

    You guys are really going hard in the paint about Biden’s cognitive abilities, 25th Amendment, etc. This must be 2020 Parler version of Hillary’s emails. 
     

    How many voting lawsuits has Trump’s legal team been successful with? How many have been dismissed?

  12. Also make sure everyone knows your Parler username so you can trade voting conspiracy theories, what about Hillary's emails, Obama's birth certificate forgeries, how Biden's the worst person on the planet cause he's a career politician (even though McConnell has served three months less in the Senate compared to Biden, almost 36 years).
