Multiple senators are planning to object to certifying the 2020 presidential election
The various States have already certified all of their election results on a state by state basis. The Justice Department has weighed in and the courts have already tossed out the various frivolous lawsuits that were filed due to a lack of supporting evidence of wide spread voter fraud as alleged. No such evidence has been presented. The presenting of the electoral college results to Congress has always been a mere formality, particularly when the results are so heavily skewed in one candidate's favor.
Every congressman and senator swears an oath to uphold and protect our constitution and obey the laws of our Republic. Yet here we see Republican congressman and senators willing to essentially commit treason in an attempt to overthrow the lawfully elected new leader of this country. This isn't an issue related to a single state. It's an attempted federal takeover of all American civil liberties, including the right to elect our own leaders.
Trump lost this election. Not only did he lose the popular vote by over 7 million votes, he lost the electoral college vote too by a *wide* (as wide as the last one) margin. Even the results of a single state will not and do not change the electoral college results.
When Trump won the electoral college by the same margin, he called it a "massive landslide victory" even though he lost the popular vote then as well. Now however, Trump and his supporters are attempting to overthrow the results of the same legally certified "massive landslide victory", in spite of the fact that Biden won the various battleground states by a *much* wider margin than Trump did in the previous election!
IMO, we've now left the realm of Trump and the Republicans just being "poor sports" and "sore losers" and whiners, and we've entered the realm of blatant treason IMO. This kind of careless and reckless action by the Republicans threatens the very heart of our Republic, specifically the right to elect our own leaders!
Trump and his followers already had their chance in court to present their case and they *failed* and failed miserably. Not a single judge in our entire nation agree with any of the lawsuits. Failing to accept the results of the states is simply unacceptable, it's a breach of trust, a conflict of interest, and flat out treason IMO.
Treason: the crime of betraying one's country, especially by attempting to kill the sovereign or overthrow the government.
