If a person complained this much and sent this much bullshit, they'd have been hit with a restraining order ages ago.
Obama personally talked things over with Trump to give him info before inauguration day. There are photos of the two together.
Not at all. Hillary gave a concession speech a day or two later.

They're smart enough to know that Pence doesnt already have this ability. This is a hail mary to see if Republican judges are willing to hand Trump the election.
GOP Lawmakers sue Pence in (foolhardy) attempt to circumvent election News
Vice President Pence was sued Sunday by Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) and several other Republicans in a far-fetched bid that appeared aimed at overturning President-elect Joe Biden's election win. The lawsuit focuses on Pence's role in an upcoming Jan. 6 meeting of Congress to count states'...

That's actually a Democrat ad I think lmao. Pretty clever. I hope it works.
Rasmussen joining in, reminding you why to not take them seriously (also, apparently they're tankies now):
While it's all jokes, I fear not calling these moves out for what they are; treason and anti-democracy, by media sources will come back and bite us hard in a few years as the GOP realizes that there might be more concrete avenues towards fascism they can take besides gerrymandering and voter disenfranchisement.
Luckily Pence is the kind of person who shies away from drama. The last thing he wants right now is the national focus on him. Exact opposite of Trump personality-wise. He's keen to quietly announce the votes and then immediately skip town and take a tour of Europe.
That's why I don't think Pence will be influenced by this. It just makes his life infinitely more stressful and leads to ultimately little gain other than pandering to cultists.

I can't even laugh at how ridiculous this is.
I wonder if that was a trump supporter billboard or one made by Democrats to capitalize on the current Republican/Trumplican schism.
So they're suing Pence to make claim that something in the Constitution is unconstitutional and to change the Constitution without an amendment?
Whoever filed this as a lawyer needs disbarred for even thinking this was something worth a lawsuit.

And the Republicans know it, but they also know that their base is stupid enough to think this could work.
When you deliberately don't tell people how things work and obscure shit from the public for decades, stunts like this allow them to get away with it and even get rewarded for it.

One of the current Copium doses is the conspiracy that Biden accepting the presidency under oath on Inauguration Day will be purjury since he stole the election and he will immediately go to prison and Trump will be President again.
Wait they are using that Stalin quote in favor of making Trump president???
Aww an, when Pelosi will be sworn in if that happens, they'll shit bricks. lol
By this logic, they need to sue the Constitution itself.
Mike Pence can't be a defendant for his own powers as Vice President.
lol
This may be the most batshit crazy thing I've seen yet.

I think there was exactly one, but I don't remember who. Whether the rest choose to stay silent because they fear getting kicked out of office by Trumpists or whether they actually support this attempted slide into fascism, we'll never really know.
All I know is that Trumpism is now the default position for the Republican party, and we're never going back to normal.
They tried to sue the Electoral College as though it were some kind of entity that could be sued. The whole party has gone off the deep end, and both their voters and leaders have fully embraced it.
Yep.
And the Republicans know it, but they also know that their base is stupid enough to think this could work.
I have a family member that is both and he has been tweeting this for a few weeks now. The VP of the United States can throw out a states votes "because", in this case "because" there was obvious fraud. With no proof. He wants King Trump sooo bad it is insane. He is also ex-military and wants to "uphold the Constitution", but I guess only when it works in his favor.
This was also not the worst thing Gohmert has done, but I'll never forget watching him bang on his desk during a hearing to try and distract and disrupt from the other speaker.
He should have been laughed out of office LONG ago.
No, that ruling was actually overturned upon appeal. The lone standing victory involved curing of a non-decisive number of ballots in Pennsylvania.
Hell I'd be satisfied with them at the very least losing the jobs that put them in the positions of even being able to attempt this shit but we can't even get that much.
I saw an article this weekend that said Trump was "confused" about Pence's role on Jan 6th. It also said Trump & Pence's recent meeting did not cover this topic (according to the White House). Yeah, right.
Trump got done whining to Pence and called Gohmert or some other sycophant. 100%

I wish American news media would report this as what it is, "republican sues pence to appear as trump ally in order to boost votes and fight off primary challengers in next election". The fact that usa media continues to push the narrative that these pointless suits are actually to try and change the election instead of the song and dance show to try and get trump voters to be on their side next election is just playing into their hands and giving them what they want, that exact narrative they are damaging trust in Americans democracy for, which to be fair is pretty shit already but still it doesn't need the media to keep doing more damaging when they're the reason trump has been propped up so much due to ratings obsessions etc.
I'm starting to feel disbelief that our country has to suffer a single goddamn ounce of this lunacy.
GOP is straight up toxic. There is no other quality that they embody.
