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.

Kemp has said that he would support Trump if he wins the 2024 Republican presidential nomination

Wtf is wrong with these people.

I don't agree with it, but it would be political suicide for him to say anything else.

This is going to be a big delay tactic. He can try to insist that all of his "evidence" gets investigated before any of charges move forward thereby delaying the trial and allowing him to continue to run for president.

Also, I'm no legal expert so correct me if I'm wrong (I probably am).....but if he had such evidence, wouldn't he have been required to share it already in the form of "discovery"

The other option is that he's going to use this to try to begin a full on armed conflict between his supporters and everyone else.

Did his investigation team finally come back from Hawaii proving that Obama is not a US citizen? Or are we still waiting on that?

I still find it funny he's trying to claim he was just having a moment, it was a perfect call. I honestly feel like Trump made some numbers up and no one could stop him.

don't give him free PR

The biggest conspiracy of our time, more that half of voters were in on it!

The true victims of this theatrics remain unchanged from the very beginning: Americans. What a fucking joke this has become. Need more popcorn.

[-] Ryan213@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Popcorn's healthy, right? I'm eating a lot of it lately.
