Looks to me like the ground is being prepared if the audit doesn't turn out as planned..

Quote:
“The entire Database of Maricopa County in Arizona has been DELETED!” Trump wrote in a post, calling such action “illegal.”

“This is illegal and the Arizona State Senate, who is leading the Forensic Audit, is up in arms. Additionally, seals were broken on the boxes that hold the votes, ballots are missing, and worse,” Trump said.

The president also said the state’s attorney general may have to get involved to oversee the process.

“Mark Brnovich, the Attorney General of Arizona, will now be forced to look into this unbelievable Election crime. Many Radical Left Democrats and weak Republicans are very worried about the fact that this has been exposed,” he wrote.

He added: “The DELETION of an entire Database and critical Election files of Maricopa County is unprecedented. Many other states to follow.”


Quote:
Earlier this week, Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Chairman Jack Sellers, a Republican, responded to these claims after Arizona Senate President Karen Fann wrote an open letter about “serious issues” that she had with the audit process.

These issues included a claim that a database was deleted, as well as alleged noncompliance of the legislative subpoena, and a chain of custody issues with the ballots.

"After reviewing the letter with County election and IT experts, I can say the allegations are false and ill-informed," Sellers wrote in his statement.

The board of supervisors chairman said such claims were “completely baseless.”

"Moreover, the claim that our employees deleted election files and destroyed evidence is outrageous, completely baseless and beneath the dignity of the Arizona Senate. I demand an immediate retraction of any public statements made to the news media and spread via Twitter," Sellers added.


Well, you can believe in the world where anyone who crosses Trump must be lying, including lifelong Republicans.

You expect them to fes up and say we did delete files. Let the investigation be transparent and finished then we will all know which side is right.

Sigh. I’ll let someone else explain it.

Today, Tuesday, I am thinking, Okay, I voted. I did my part. I can do no more. When I had an unfilled-out ballot in hand, sure—that was my circus. Those were my monkeys. But now that my ballot has been submitted and counted, it’s no longer my circus. The monkeys are playing out there, but their antics are not my responsibility. So the wisest course is to calmly go about my day. It’s a beautiful day. I should endeavor to live it beautifully.

At a certain point, I'd have to think all of this starts to lose even some of the support of the most fervent supporters.

Not only do they not have a smoking gun; they continue to search endlessly for a smoking gun that probably isn't there no matter how far you stretch the imagination. They find nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing and more nothing.

They were able to make a better case before they started trying to prove the case. They could have just let all the supporters stew over the perception that they had been massively ripped off for four years, but instead, they endlessly continue to discredit their own position.

Us Libertarians should just start declaring that Jo Jorgensen won and is our rightful POTUS. It's an almost equally valid claim.

I'm not suggesting that he is hemorrhaging support as a result, just that, at a certain point, you lose some of your fence-sitters or those who think Trump is anything less than Jesus Christ reincarnated.
