In case you haven't heard it, the complete Trump phone call trying to put the screws on the Georgia Secretary of State:
More criticism of Trump's insane rants can be found here.
VP Mike Pence thought it was okay that seditious Republican senators plan on undermining a fair election.
What the GOP is doing, however, is worse than treason. The perpetrators need to be locked up for sedition.
Snip:
This is sedition, plain and simple. No amount of playacting and rationalizing can change the fact that the majority of the Republican Party and its apologists are advocating for the overthrow of an American election and the continued rule of a sociopathic autocrat.
This is not some handful of firebrands making a stand for the television cameras. In 2005, one Democrat in the House and one in the Senate filed an objection to counting Ohio’s electoral votes, while insisting that they were not contesting the outcome of the presidential election itself. In 2017, a handful of Democratic members of the House objected to the electoral count. Because they lacked support in the Senate, then–Vice President Biden ruled the representatives out of order and declared, “It is over.” In both cases, the Democratic candidate had already conceded.
