The State Legislature in all those states were Majority Republic. The rules that were set out were patently ignored. Arizona, Georgia "Republican" governors, which Trump endorsed. Trump complained about these mail in ballots 7 months before the election saying there would be massive fraud. Did nothing about it, except to try and get other people to do something about it, on his behalf, not saying they shouldn't have but we all know how that went. What executive orders did he sign, which were implemented? None. Martial Law, Insurrection? Nope. Said that BLM and ANTIFA were terrorist organizations, but they were totally allowed to run the election process in those states, nothing to see here. I could go on, but at this point, I'm going to be spending more time and effort on this than President Trump did.
You're not wrong. There was a detailed plan to use the EO to seize the voting machines, ballots and election materials in the 6 problematic counties and do a manual recount on air. The plan was hatched by Flynn and Powell but Trump never followed through. Your guess is as good as mine why not.
EO's can't be applied to force states to do what you want. Trump is federal. Elections are controlled by states. The federal government has no say in how they're conducted.
I understand why it's this way; it's to keep the federal government from interfering and rigging it their way. It's a good idea. On paper. But for the federal government to have no say in the way their own elections are done is kind of bullshit. The federal government should have some kind of oversight or say on the same level as the states. If we had that, we would have seen more progress.
But an EO wasn't going to do anything. You can't FORCE sovereign states to do things. For example; Biden's mask mandate only applies to federal buildings. His fracking ban only applies to federal land. He can't tell the states that they can't frack on private land or state owned land. What an EO CAN do is say 'we don't like this and if you keep it up, we're going to with hold federal funding to your state.' But what does that really do? It makes you look like a tyrant and you're purposefully hurting the citizens of that state to get what you want. Biden would do that, but Trump wouldn't. I think Trump cares too much about the people he is charged with protecting to do that.
That's Trump's fatal flaw. He cares too much about the people.
Really, the machine had decided Trump was not the president in November. His staff weren't supporting him, the bureaucracy wasn't listening to him, and his effective power was basically nothing. I don't think he expected basically everyone to stab him in the back, from RINOs in congress to his own VP and lawyers
You mean besides calling it out every day? Besides assembling a legal team to present evidence to courts that refused to hear it? Besides having Rudy argue in multiple states and present their case to many legislative assemblies? Besides calling up governors? Besides pressuring states to uphold their election laws and prosecute the illegal election activity? Besides holding press conferences and rallies to push the issue? Besides pushing his VP to do the right thing? Besides seeking every legal avenue to investigate the fraud only to have the deep state slam the door shut?
I mean him as the most powerful person in the world. You think him tweeting about it was some sort of an achievement? Him assembling a legal team, who paid for that? People who donated to that campaign. I watched all of those hearings. Making some phone calls, cool. Pressuring states to uphold their election laws? No, the Attorney General and the FBI could have done that though, oh wait, he didn't clean that up, people on here were saying for fucking years to sort that out, if you're going to tell me that wasn't avoidable, and that he didn't have full autonomy over that process, you're a moron. Press conferences, nope, watched every one, barely said anything except for some tweets and went completely silent after January 6th. "Pushing" VP Pence to do the right thing? You mean ending his political career if he didn't? Any reasonable person would consider telling them to go fuck themselves at that proposition...Which is exactly what he did...By the way, if you're working with someone for 4 years, how can you not figure out whether you can trust them or not, same goes with Barr...
Let me ask you a couple questions, did President Trump have the authority to enact the Insurrection Act, detaining those people involved and the evidence? The answer is yes by the way. Was Barr able to be fired at any point in time? Is the Attorney General able to fire people at the FBI, and direct them to investigate certain crimes? Again, the answer to those questions is yes. Is Trump able to fire the Director of the FBI and put in, Ronald Macdonald would have been a better fucking choice, literally...So he complains about mail in ballots for 7 months prior, and doesn't direct the intelligence communities to, oh I don't know, keep an eye on it. Which again, he had full autonomy over these organizations. No, this was a big fucking mistake and if you can't acknowledge that, than I don't know what to tell you. Another question, what was the purpose of getting that protest started? People are complaining about Ted Cruz, who I don't trust whatsoever, regardless, that it was reckless and I think he said dangerous or something, totally agree, wasn't incitement or insurrection, fucking stupid though. What was he actually trying to achieve, I really can't answer that question. I really, really could go on, but I'm done, have a good one dude.
Why the fuck are you blaming Trump and not the fuckers who stole this election? It's like you are lashing out at MAGA and Trump instead of focusing your anger and rage at the left and the deep state.
did President Trump have the authority to enact the Insurrection Act
If the military brass are just going to say "we're not going to do anything because there was 'no fraud' (all the media said so!) and we're not going to risk civil conflict over it".
Having the authority to invoke the insurrection act means nothing if you don't have the power to invoke it.
He was flailing about, with only his 2 arms, as daggers from all directions were stabbing him.
What do you want him to do? One man vs them all. So easy to be a fat slob blaming everyone else. He took them all on, his only Allie makes pictures of frogs on the Internet.
What measures did Trump take to secure the 2020 election? Genuinely asking.
The State Legislature in all those states were Majority Republic. The rules that were set out were patently ignored. Arizona, Georgia "Republican" governors, which Trump endorsed.

Yeah, I dont know why he didnt take action either.
I have a feeling it’s not as simple as that.

Other that that he hasn’t done much.

It would be illegal for me to do that...
If the military brass are just going to say "we're not going to do anything because there was 'no fraud' (all the media said so!) and we're not going to risk civil conflict over it".

Go ahead and downvote, but you cant answer the question for a reason...Retards...
You think you're the only one here who likes to deepthroat cock? I'm the best at it bud.
The fuck...
