Trump is asked (& doesn't answer) how he felt about chants of #VoteHimOut & being booed outside Supreme Court today. He says that "…somebody said there was some chanting…we heard a soundbut it wasn't very strong". Looks like he did hear something clearly in the second clip. pic.twitter.com/UAAZ5ccRmk

He has no honest path to victory. He’s a crooked authoritarian. He and the @gop are committed already to taking this to a warped supreme court. Everything else is just blather. https://t.co/qZ0lVm6EXt

Trump likes to project the image of a strongman, but he's weak, weak, weak. Take courage, vote, and we'll scrape that piece of shit out of the Oval Office. https://t.co/GFMzsRQCA3

Trump isn't merely refusing to say he'd respect the transfer of power. He's flatly declaring that he will try to *thwart* the transfer of power by any means necessary, even if he legitimately loses. He's putting that into operation right now. New piece:https://t.co/CGF0Rw0WjR

Whoever the president nominates to the Supreme Court knows that her specific assignment is to end the American experiment in constitutional government after the president loses the election. Perhaps better to decline.

if the leader of my country were saying he's cool with ignoring election results and his party were signaling they're okay with that i would simply treat it like the absolute fucking emergency it is

In April 2019, Trump claimed that he sent more than $90 billion to Puerto Rico in government aid. We just got documents showing at that point FEMA had only sent $3 billion. https://t.co/Hb7DrpdmZJ

smart segment by Donie. Think it shows that this isn't an issue of media literacy, really. don't think it's that he's duped in the traditional sense especially bc he certainly doesn't care if he was. there's something deeper based in identity & constructing reality to preserve it https://t.co/axv6ZjGvY4
