1. I will never forgive

Republicans for what they have done.

2. I cannot imagine what history will make of this.

Previously, it would have been too insane to be imaginable.

3. The super ninjas will issue a report soon

It will say that while there were indications of massive fraud -- clear indications -- the audit was hampered by the Biden Administration and its operatives and prevented from digging deeply enough to uncover the source and size of the fraud. So while we have no so-called “hard evidence” we found enough to know just how intricate and nefarious the plans were and how well executed.

The conclusion: the only way to get an honest vote count in Arizona is be doing the election over again, in broad daylight, where every citizen must appear personally at a polling place and produce at least 2 types of official government ID and, further, an ongoing count, vote by vote, should be posted as each voter votes so that there is no question how many votes President Trump actually gets at each polling place -- and all polling place results should then be coordinated and posted in a central place and made available for all TV networks.

Since none of these “recommendations” will happen, the ninjas will appeal to the Trump public for money to keep their efforts moving forward. And the ninjas will enrich themselves at the expense of democracy and the people of Arizona.

5. I really don't understand how they're getting away with this legally

If they want to know how every citizen voted, it's none of their business, votes are supposed to be private. And we already know that every challenge to the votes that TFG attempted hs been thrown out of court - by both those appointed by Democrats or Republicans. After this many months, it's turning into a ridiculous joke, and the waste of money and resources is inexcusable. I don't understand how the citizens are putting up with it.
