“...They need to stop cheating, burning down our cities and trying to destroy our laws....”

They won’t.

Living with them is like being locked in a room with a psychopath that hates for no logical or rational reason; you can’t close your eyes, you can’t turn away for a moment, you can’t let your guard down for a second, because the moment you do, the psychopath jumps on your throat with teeth bared.

This only ends one way.

Even if you do a revote in the contested states the losing side will still believe that the winning candidate won the election through fraudulent means - either vote fraud or voter suppression, depending on who won. So what does your plan really achieve?

than a country almost literally at each other's throats and a federal government so dysfunctional it cannot get anything done.

That's kind of the point. I think if you asked most Freepers, this is a desired outcome. The last thing we want is for the government to be DOING things.

What does a re-vote achieve? Legitimacy. You have another election with lots of observers and clear chains of custody for ballots and have it done according to the laws made by the legislature, it achieves democratic legitimacy.

We do not have that now.

"Barr has not standing to do anything is an election that is specifically in the Constitution as being directed by the State Legislator...Barr stepping into this would be akin to him being involved in a DUI. It’s not his jurisdiction."

I would contend this is a civil rights and equal protection issue, well within the DOJ's purview. A better analogy than Barr being involved in a DUI would be if you were pulled over by a cop for having a Trump bumper sticker, charged with DUI with no evidence, denied legal counsel, and locked up and charged excessive bail.

This is a deprivation of rights, and by definition, a federal issue.

Either way, it is clear the fat-guy is practicing his bagpipes off in some corner.

So we are just supposed to sit down and shut up. Nope, not going to happen. Don’t piss down our back and tell us it’s raining. The one thing that the Biden campaign did tell the truth about. . . this IS a battle for the soul of the nation. We cannot give up and let the blood, toil, sweat and tears of the patriots who gave us this country be washed away like dirt on the driveway. NOW IS THE TIME FOR ALL GOOD MEN TO COME TO THE AID OF THEIR COUNTRY!!! If the Republican elected officials don’t come along side President Trump and support him to insure this was a fair election, that should be our signal that the hope of America rests in the hands of the new patriots fighting to validate the sacrifices of the patriots before us. It is and will be our sworn and Constitutional duty to throw off the chains of these proponents of tyranny and bring them to seat of true justice. LET’S ROLL!!!

Barr is working for the other team.

But the losing side will never accept it as legitimate, regardless of whether it's Trump or Biden.

Their hardcore partisans may not but it would be an impossible case to make with the public - so long as the re-vote was done with sufficient voter security and transparency.

Absolutely. One way, and one way only.

I support a complete re-vote.

With all the strict regulations you name, and with PHOTO ID & purple fingers.

NO mail in ballots.

Strict control of absentee ballots.

ONLY specially printed & CONTROLLED ballots allowed.

The Deep State and leftists are counting on you rubes to follow all the laws they break.

I say, pick your moment to throw a shoe in the gears.

No they’re not.

The low IQ deep state and the low IQ leftists are counting on suckers like you to mimic their law breaking behavior.
