    I've never watched CNN in my life.

    And yes, it would be a 'shame' if Trump wasn't allowed to steal the election with his bigot he chose for SCOTUS.

    The fact that Biden won by a significant margin put a stop to Trump's plan I feel. If it was a single state I think he'd have stolen it.
    He's now just trying to fleece his base for as much money as possible for 'legal fees' (with 60% of those donations being used to pay off election debt. not suspicious at all for a 'billionaire')

    Ah sorry.... I thought you were a CNN viewer. I must have you mixed up with someone else.

    It will be interesting to see how things pan out whatever happens. I suspect that there could be a few more twists and turns in the tale yet.

    What did you think to the Georgia fraud video footage by the way?

    It’s absolute ********.

    Proves literally nothing.

    Just for clarification.... Are you suggesting that the footage isn't genuine or that it was perfectly innocent to send the ballot watchers home and then pull suitcases full of ballots out from under the tables?

    Aren't they standard ballot boxes? Is that the best evidence he has - a misinterpretation of some video?

    You do realise that the burden of proof requires him to conclusively prove fraud - it's not for him to make wild unsubstantiated accusations and then demand that everyone else conclusively prove there was no fraud.

    I think this article based on a study of the entire day's worth of footage (not just 90 seconds) completely rubbishes Trump's and Giuliani's claims of electoral fraud. Why are you still pushing this rubbish?

    If you want me to debunk your insane conspiracy theories, I will do.

    They weren’t suitcases. They were standard ballot boxes.

    Nobody was asked to leave the room. Counting had finished so many left of their own accord.

    The ballots shown on camera were already counted and were simply being collected at the end of the day.

    All this is shown on camera, but the trump “legal team” chose a very specifically edited piece of footage to present a false narrative.

    Now get your head out of Trump’s arse and look at what’s actually going on.

    Yes I realise that is how it works. But its not me he has to prove anything to.... it's the courts/ Supreme Court. If he has sufficient evidence, and I personally believe he has, then the courts will find in his favour. If he hasn't then they won't.

    Given that SCOTUS is the highest court and several of these cases appear to be headed there imminently it doesn't matter what the Justices' opinions were in the lower courts because these can always be over-turned by the Supreme Court. Given the thousands of sworn affidavits, video footage and statistical evidence pointing towards serious election fraud I think the days of suggesting these are 'unsubstantiated accusations' are long since passed. The question now is not whether there was fraud but rather whether there was sufficient fraud in the key swing states to flip the Election result.

    Please point me towards any of these credible affidavits or statistical evidence, I'd like to read them.

    Before people start getting their knickers in a twist can I just remind you that what I think has no bearing in the slightest on what happens in an overseas election. Either Trump will win or Biden will win completely irrespective of what I think. I'm nothing more than an interested spectator.

    You could have shortened that to just the 9 highlighted words.

    Thanks for the reminder. I was worrying myself sick you were going to determine the outcome by the power of your own mind.

    I don't want or need you to debunk anything for me thanks. What will be will be.

    Funnily enough, the Trump legal team didn't send me copies but there are plenty of bits floating online if you care to look for them. Or like me you could just watch with interest and see how things play out.

    So your claims of credible evidence remain unsubstantiated. How apt.

    I believe Trump will still win this election, I also believe in unicorns, the tooth fairy and the Loch Ness Monster

    Probably worth bearing in mind here that rational argument is not the currency that conspiracy theorists deal in.

    No comment on anything else I said? Any ‘proof’ to go against my facts? Maybe a video that was banned on YouTube, maybe an image with red circles?

    By the way, the REPUBLICAN election official in Georgia says that everything was absolutely above board and no irregularities were found in the state.

    Who do you think has more to gain from lying? And more to lose from lying? Trump or the election official?

    What a weird world we live in when someone would rather take the word of a man who has admitted he wants to have sex with his own daughter than believe the evidence of many independent investigators

    It's not my place to substantiate anything. I'm not personally involved in the legal challenge.

    You asserted that the claims had passed the unsubstantiated stage, but seemingly can't back that up.
