A place to dissect the chaos and lob insults at GOP dunces.

If I understand correctly, each speaker during the debate only gets 5 minutes to speak. 5 minutes total. So we won't see the parade of GOP-ers ceding their time back to like Cruz and Hawley.
Still not looking forward to the parade of morons. And I expect at least one Gaetz stunt.

So it sounds like they each go back to their chambers and have the 5 minutes there. So the 5 minutes may be happening at the same time? I just need to figure out my viewing.

I am so ready to just get this show on the road so it can be done. I assume if they challenge the 6 states, we won't have a resolution today since each challenge gets two hours of debate, correct?
I wonder if any of those folks are having second thoughts on challenging after yesterday. It isn't working, you morons.

This is a very ridiculous last stand. What were we told 4 years ago? You lost. Get over it

Is there a chance of this going in Trumps favour? Iām confused about what exactly is happening and how it works.

They'll adjourn the joint session and go back to their respective chambers. Louie Gohmert will say some dumb shit. Adam Schiff will snack it down. Josh Hawley will say some dumb shit. Chuck Schumer will smack it down. This will go on for about 18 hours before they reconvene the joint session, they vote to certify, and everyone takes a nap. They don't have the votes to do anything but complain.

I am so annoyed at all my conservative family who were always like āObamaās gonna look for a way to stay longerā āBill Clinton will never leave voluntarilyā when it was there asshole who dug there heels in and violated the constitution. I watched a whole plane jeer Mitt Romney as a traitor for refusing to throw an election. What in the actual hell is wrong with people?

Is there a chance of this going in Trumps favour? Iām confused about what exactly is happening and how it works. I shared this on my FB: This latest scheme would require one individual from each chamber (Senate and House) to object to State Certifications. This is likely to happen by Republicans in both chambers. House & Senate will then retire to debate for 2 hours. Then each chamber will vote. A simple majority in BOTH chambers is needed to uphold the objection. The objections will fail, because Democrats hold the House majority. And Senate Republicans will not get a majority - at least 24 have stated they support the election results and Biden's win, including Mitch McConnell. Thank you for coming to this Tedtalk, I hope it alleviates your fears. www.npr.org/2020/12/22/949134479/congress-role-in-election-results-heres-what-happens-jan-6

This is purely performative and is all part of the grift for most of them. Gohmert I think really believes it but he's C-R-A-Z-Y
