What would be insane is if Donald Trump gets the boot from the republicans and starts his own party.
Like the EFF of America.
Oh man, that would be entertainment. I sincerely hope we get to see that.
That's not too far-fetched.

Republicans have taken a
sharp turn away from departing President Donald J. Trump over the past 72 hours – and what they’re saying speaks volumes to their commitment post-election.
The Washington Post‘s Amy Gardner
reported on Sunday, “Ever so slowly, Republicans are starting to say it’s over. Here’s a compilation from the past 72 hours.”
The compilation consists of Michigan Senate Leader Mike Shirkey and House Speaker Lee Chatfield, who said in a joint statement, “We have not been made aware of any information that would change the outcome of the election in Michigan.”
Maryland GOP Gov. Larry Hogan
said Sunday,
“If you had done your job, America’s governors wouldn’t have been forced to fend for themselves to find tests in the middle of a pandemic, as we successfully did in Maryland. Stop golfing and concede.”
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said, “The numbers that we have presented today are correct.
The numbers reflect the verdict of the people, not a decision by the secretary of state’s office or of courts or of either campaign.”
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said, “Quite frankly, the conduct of the
President’s legal team has been a national embarrassment.”
“Having failed to make even a plausible case of widespread fraud or conspiracy before any court of law, the President has now resorted to overt pressure on state and local officials to subvert the will of the people and overturn this election,” said Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT. “It is difficult to imagine a worse, more undemocratic action by a sitting American president.”
“Based on what I’ve read in their filings, when Trump campaign lawyers have stood before courts under oath, they have repeatedly
refused to actually allege grand fraud – because there are legal consequences for lying to judges,” said Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE).
Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos said, “I assume Joe Biden is going to win, because I think it’s very unlikely that we’re going to find 20,000 cases of fraud.”
To sum up the mood of the latest comments by Republicans, conservative election law expert Rick Esenberg offered, “I think it’s highly unlikely that the issue could result in a change of the outcome.”
Republican Lisa Murkowski tells Trump to stand down and let the transition move forward

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) released a statement Sunday evening telling President Donald Trump it’s time for him to stand down and let President-elect Joe Biden’s transition to move forward.
Posting her statement to Twitter, Murkowski said, “As states wrap up the 2020 election and certify the results, it is incumbent upon all of us to ensure that we respect the integrity of the election process and uphold Americans’ faith in our electoral system. Each state has worked to ensure a free and fair election process. President Trump has had the opportunity to litigate his claims, and the courts have thus far found them without merit. A pressure campaign on state legislators to influence the electoral outcome is not only unprecedented by inconsistent with our democratic process. It is time to begin the full and formal transition process.”
It’s unclear if Murkowski would be willing to do more than issue a statement, like supporting a censure for the president or a formal demand for General Services Administration chief Emily Murphy, who refuses to sign off on Biden’s transition.
She joins nine other Republicans who have demanded Trump end his protest.
