Updating with Gov. Brian Kemp's response:

The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen.

For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward - under oath - and prove anything in a court of law. Our elections in Georgia are secure, accessible, and fair and will continue to be as long as I am governor.

The future of our country is at stake in 2024 and that must be our focus.

Right after he unveils his healthcare plan and right after infrastructure week.

And his plan for peace in the Middle East.

No, Jared managed that quite well...

Oh wait, he "got a piece of the Middle East".....

Close enough!

[-] robbotlove@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

I thought Jared Kushner already solved the Middle East years ago?

He'll present nothing and his supporters will forget about this announcement.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

In two weeks, when no report has appeared, remind every single Trump supporter you encounter. Don't let them forget this. Keep hammering on it. Keep asking when the report is going to drop. Don't let them change the subject. Don't let them talk about anything else. No matter what they want, keep demanding the report or that they admit he lied to them to placate them.

I don't know, I hear the parking lot at Four Seasons Total Landscape still has room for a podium.

[-] meco03211@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

Not all. Some will find something they can point at and definitively say this is what he meant. It probably won't be a report. It definitely won't "prove" him right. It might even prove beyond all reasonable doubt that he's guilty. But they will point to it and say that's it. And they will have won (in their heads), the argument.

Anyone else remember when the my pillow guy had a 3 day event where he was gonna present his evidence of this? That was pretty fun. Hopefully this lives up to the hype and is even more wild and embarrassing than that one.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.one 23 points 1 year ago

Yup, and it turned out the data he presented was a bunch of nonsense.

[-] pizza-bagel@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

My favorite part was when they brought out their tech experts and they had to question if it was a Windows computer or not LOL

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.one 19 points 1 year ago

Oh, man, I missed that... I tuned in to see what they were going to do and they were just scrolling data, it was impossible to tell from the stream what it was.

But they made the mistake of turning the logs over to an actual researcher and he was like "Nah, ok, where's my money." LOL.

"He proved the data Lindell LLC provided, and represented reflected information from the November 2020 election, unequivocally did not reflect November 2020 election data," the arbitrators wrote. "Failure to pay Mr. Zeidman the $5 million prize was a breach of the contract, entitling him to recover."

When Donald Trump first claimed the election was rigged. The Republican led Michigan state legislature, prior to deciding electors, invited him and his cabinent to present their evidence at an open session of their legislature; with the implications that if indeed there was legitimate evidence of widespread fraud in the state of Michigan they would use their Constitutional right to choose electors to modify who they sent to Congress.

Trump didn't show, he didn't send a representative he sent zero evidence. He was 100% hot air then, he's 100% hot air now.

[-] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

What? It's been like 3 years since his presence was oppressive. Shit, I'm getting my second wind.

HEY TRUMP YOUR LEGACY IS RIFE WITH IMPEACHMENTS, INDICTMENTS, AND SHAME. THERE ISNT A FUTURE THAT EXISTS WHERE YOU DONT SERVE AS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF THE FAILURES OF THE EARLY 21ST CENTURY. ALL FOR WHAT? A CARTOONISH EXSISTANCE OF SHITTING ON GOLDEN TOILETS; BEING A DEPRIVED SEXUAL DEVIANT DEVOID OF REAL HUMAN CONNECTION; AND ALLL THE MCDONALDS, BURNT STEAKS W/ KETCHUP, AND DIET COKE YOU CAN STOMACH. YOU FUCKING ORANGE CLOWN.

[-] MojoMcJojo@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

So accurate. He's also the prime example of the failures of his generation. Every boss I've had is from his generation and they all worship and emulate him. They think that running a business like him is why they're successful and are totally ignorant of the fact that they were handed the world on a silver platter, promptly shit all over it, and now can't understand why everything is falling apart around them.

Said the liar:

A Large, Complex, Detailed but Irrefutable REPORT on the Presidential Election Fraud which took place in Georgia is almost complete & will be presented by me at a major News Conference at 11:00 A.M. on Monday of next week in Bedminster, New Jersey. Based on the results of this CONCLUSIVE Report, all charges should be dropped against me & others – There will be a complete EXONERATION! They never went after those that Rigged the Election. They only went after those that fought to find the RIGGERS!

Oh, good. I was beginning to think maybe it was all false hype. Glad he's finally gonna show us how it happened. /s

It warmed my heart that the author worked in the Four Seasons Total Landscaping stunt. Hahaha. What a joke. How anyone took their side seriously after that embarrassment is beyond me. Some people are very stupid.

He is just a notorious liar. Nothing more.

It's always 'we'll show our evidence next week' with these traitors.

This is just a play to get his rubes to give him more money. Doesn't matter what he says or shows, lots of morons will go e him cash that he'll funnel right into his lawyers pockets. Like so many other things, this is a play for cash and time. Keep giving red meat to the base and they'll keep lining his pockets

When they read Trump’s statement about “Who knew healthcare was so complicated” to Bernie Sanders during an interview, he laughed so hard I thought he might fall out of his chair.

It'll be drawn in red crayon and include just a circle around Mississippi, which I'd imagine he probably believes to be Georgia.

"I've got irrefutable evidence that the election was stolen."

"Dope! Bring it to court. If you're right, they can overturn the fraud and if you're lying there will be consequences."

"No thanks! I'll stick to my bespoke twitter clone where I can't actually accomplish anything but no one can hold me responsible for my actions."

[-] krayj@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This is nothing more than theater to keep his willfully ignorant base engaged, donating, and committed to voting for him even if he's in prison.

If he had such a report, he'd have published it long ago. So that means it doesn't exist yet. If he does produce anything, it will be unfinished and unintelligible.
