Interesting to look at twitter as this goes on and see how many of MAGA don't see 20,000 Mules as an interesting and potentially new hypoethesis about how Dems and their minions may have conceivably cheated in the election - going by the twitter comments, people believe (or claim to) that it represents absolutely categorcial cast iron proof of fraud and, is sufficient in itself too overturn the election.
In fact this last bit is, in one sense, what I find particularly strange. From the way people talk they see 2,000 Mules not just as evidence but also seemingly, as somehow in itself the mechanism of change. What I mean is, you and I know that the 2020 is election is completely done and dusted and that there is no way to change it*, but presumably all these dickheads howling to "decertify" can't grasp that and - you would think - must bellieve that, now they finally have the utterly undeniable proof they've been promising for years, that there should be some way to deploy it so that the criminals involved are punished and, more importantly, it gets some kind of official recognition that it is proof and that there was fraud. Which I guess would be the first steps towards demonstrating that the siting POTUS is illegitimate and precipitating a constitutional crisis that would riemove him.
But I've not heard any mention of any such steps, any moves to use it in court or anywhere. In their eyes it is ALREADY official, they can happily say "fraud has been proven" and beileve they are telling the truth. They demand "decertify" or "Put Trump back as president" but who are they talking to? Maybe God? I dunno, but there seems to be a beleif that the video is the proof they need and that at some point it will itself magically depose BIden and bring back Trump. And maybe wind time back to jan 2021 as well.
Am I making any sense here? I guess what I'm saying is that finding some evidence that convinces your side should be the first step, next should be convincing the other side too and getting it officially recognised. And at that point it could be used to achieve something. But instead it all seems to have ground completely to a hallt at the very beginning of the process.
Regardless of that, I can see - if I couldn't before - that the US voting system and confidence in it is fatally damaged - it's completely destroyed. These people will now simply never accept defeat and will automatically refuse to recognise the legitimacy of any result they don't like.
*we also know the video is a lame rehash of allegations that have already been investigated and thrown out for failing to come anywhere near the required standard of proof of course
