"I wonder who leaked the audio? "
I'm thinking the attorney in Georgia Trump refers to in the audio may have had enough with Trump's threats and said let it rip!"

That's a question a MAGA voter nevers asks or answers when it is asked.  The MAGA thinking on it seems to follow Trump's explanation on poll projections. If they show him behind, they're fake. If they show him ahead, they're real. In Georgia, despite three recounts, the MAGA base still thinks they're all fake. And that's despite the videos that purport to show fraud being debunked and Republican election officials and the governor attesting to the fairness and honesty of the results. Ya got uncle Billie Hicks standing up there on a podium and saying stuff like how can Trump be so much ahead on election day and then lose? Well, that's because the absentee and drop off ballots take time to be counted and the results need to be tabulated. No mystery about it at all. But try convincing uncle Billie Hicks of that in Georgia...

No problem Jim, I realize that you're not the brightest bulb in the box, and I won't hold it against you.  

No they didn't. Boxer contested the electors to protest black voter suppression and there's wasn't any refusal to concede an election with it, either. That's a world of difference between subverting the election results and the constitution that the Republican zealots are doing now. And when Gore's election was contested, it was deemed worthy by the supreme court to be heard unlike the current conspiracy theories of the wingnuts in charge of their asylum. BTW, black voter suppression is still happening in Georgia:https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/04/politics/georgia-hancock-county-right-to-vote-senate/index.html

She didn't think the vote was correct.

And black voter suppression isn't occurring in Ga.  Stacy Abrams is a complete nutjob, which means you and her are in good company, 2 peas in a pod.  

You're such a f'in tool of the left, then again they understand how to control and manipulate their sheep like yourself.

Boxer contrested it because she didn't think the vote in a state wasn't correct because of black voter suppression. Black voter suppression is occurring in Georgia: https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/04/politics/georgia-hancock-county-right-to-vote-senate/index.html
And Al Gore's challenge was deemed worthy to be heard by the supreme court, unlike the Kraken whackos' suit. As for the whackos in Washington and their latest effort, " Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., recently said a challenge to electors "will go down like a shot dog."

Trump supporters in Georgia, who were at a Kelly-rally, were asked if they knew about the call. None of 'em did and didn't have a clue. One chimed into to say, with righteous indignation, that she KNOWS there's been election fraud in Georgia. You ought to see those ignorant uncle Billy Hicks all over the stage. I couldn't believe what I was seeing on that stage. It wasn't enough that they had large American flags on poles on stage. They got two huge cranes and had two more suspended by them immediately behind the candidate. Then Perdue gets on Fox and talks about the call, and with righteous indignation, says it was was disgusting...because Trump got recorded.

Oh, aren't you the clever one! You never made a typo in your life? And if you did, were you writing in Hindu?

Good one!
Unfortunately, it's rooted in reality:

"During the conversation, the president repeatedly asked Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) to "find" more than 11,000 ballots he would need to overcome a gap between him and Biden in the state, thereby flipping the state in his favor."

Can you imagine the uproar if Biden did the same in some other state that he narrowly lost!
Friggin MAGA hypocrites...

"amounts to a remarkable show of force against Trump's subversion efforts just days before Congress is set to count Electoral College votes."

Jim

Other than your fixation of "packing the courts" that you seem to refer to frequently in your posts on the matter, what are the "really aggressive D policies" that are non starters?
