    Yeah, but the Bush coup was done through the “proper” channels, rather than through a bunch of yahoos who took a shit in a trashcan and tazed their balls.

        True, but his argument was more directly that he won and this was constitutional. Trump’s followers also thought they were doing something legal, and stopping a fake election, but they fumbled hard. Brooks Brothers was to cement the votes putting Bush ahead, thus he didn’t challenge the entire election. The norms could be followed so far as libs are concerned

      Roger stone got a bunch of polo wearing douchebags to go into where the votes were being counted and cause a recession until they stopped counting and gave up.
