There is no one credible who has said that laptop is fake...
The head of national Intelligence told us it's real.
I've seen the videos on it.
People who were in the email chains confirmed it's real.
That was real.
Just like the irregularities in these vote counts are real.
You don't have the like it, but this is reality. I'm not even saying voter/electoral fraud right now. At the very least, there were large errors, benefiting Biden. These are real, they're provable, and no one is really even denying them. Some have even been corrected for. You don't correct for things that aren't real.
You can argue whether it was fraud or not, but you don't get to pretend that objective reality does not exist. 2+2 does not equal 5. There are 4 lights.
Ratcliffe didn't say the laptop was "real". He said there wasn't evidence of it being a Russian operation. Which there wouldn't be. Even if you believe it was a Russian op, instead of just something made up. That doesn't mean it is actually Hunter Biden's laptop. The idea Biden took his computer to a shop in Delaware and abandoned it is pretty improbable. For one thing, he mostly doesn't live in Delaware. If they'd stuck to the misspelled letters trying to make it look Joe Biden got his son a cushy job it might have been believable,but it wouldn't have swung any significant number of votes. (If nepotism bothers you, you won't be voting for Trump).
Several news agencies requested to see the original files or hard drives and were not allowed to do so, preventing any forensic testing from being done to confirm their origins. Something that makes no sense if it were legitimate. And the laptop materialized out of the ether, just in time to try to influence the election.
When the corruption angle completely didn't catch on and they decided to add the QAnon, Biden eats babies nonsense they jumped the shark from plausible smear that nobody cared about to something no one not already sold on pizzagate would believe. Amusingly, if it were real, everyone involved in pushing this narrative would be in serious legal trouble. You can't hold onto, fail to report, or duplicate child pornography as a private citizen. If this weren't completely made up, Giuliani would be getting debarred at a bare minimum.
But it is made up. And I think almost everyone knows it, even if they pretend to the contrary. If the people pretending to believe it really cared about sexual abuse, they'd have raised hell when it became clear Trump hung out with Jeffery Epstein. Or when he bragged about assaulting women. Or when his ex-wife described him sexually assaulting her. Or when he went into the dressing rooms of a teen beauty pageant. Or any number of other acts of clear disrespect for women's and girls' bodily autonomy.
Guys, just ignore the anti-Trump people trying to legitimize Biden's attempt to steal this election.
Trump still has ways to legally win, and measures he can take to ensure the election fraud is dealt with by people/groups who are not part of the corrupt deep state establishment.
Anti-Trump people will twist anything that happens to make it seem bad for Trump, and ignore anything good for Trump.
Lines have been drawn, and knowing who to trust the words of is more important than ever. View every claim by anti-Trump people with deep distrust, and do not treat them as doing anything in good faith.
This is unfair. The fact is, these narratives where some last minute legal chicanery means Trump wins because he is the incumbent are just slightly better than sovereign citizens complaining about gold fringed flags. The idea of a contingent election isn't some wild legal theory. it has happened multiple times and is the constitutionally prescribed response to the EC failing to grant a majority of electoral votes to any candidate for executive office. Any twisting comes from a desperate attempt to spin a narrative where Trump has a chance to win despite the election results.
It won't happen. Trump lost the election, so his candidates for elector won't be casting votes. But if it did happen, a vote in the House would be the result.
Deciding to listen to a bunch of grifters like Giuliani and Powell because they tell you what you want to hear is a choice you can make, but it isn't going to do anything but feed you reassurances and try to get you to donate money. The idea that anybody posting here is trying to "legitimize" anything is absurd. The opinion of people on sci-fi message boards isn't going to determine the outcome of the election. Nothing you or I say will make one iota of difference. The voters did that when they selected Biden.
I know it isn't pleasant to think someone you think is awful won an election. I was certainly unhappy with Trump's electoral college victory in 2016. (Joe Biden isn't the man you think he is. I wish he were. I'd love if he were the radical Marxist crusader for trans rights the far right believes he is. But he is just a moderate, about where Obama and Bush were politically.) I understand not wanting to face that. But that is the reality. Trump sold a narrative where everyone outside of himself and his supporters were corrupt. It was a lie. Trump wasn't fighting a grand battle. There is no secret cabal of devil worshippers running Washington D.C. After his term, things will continue like they did during his term, with possibly a few more civil rights protections for LGBT people and maybe a better healthcare bill if we're lucky.
I don't want you to feel bad. But you are setting yourself up for a disappointment, and a lot of people are getting scammed into giving bad people their money because they believe it will help. And both of those things suck. I don't expect you to take this post well, but I promise it is meant well.
