Lets see if we can keep this thread a little more civil.

I found this interview very interesting.  A lot of soft balls thrown at Trump, he explained his back pedalling on his more extreme issues as a lot of his claims as opening bids for negotiation purposes.  Which .. whatever .. I still think that those are insincere claims he used to get elected.

He does now come across way more presidential then he did prior to the election.  A lot of his noise, yelling, and rhetoric has been scaled back.

Do respect this one though:

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna take the salary, the president’s salary?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no. I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a -- I don’t even know what it is.

Donald Trump: Do you know what the salary is?

Lesley Stahl: $400,000 you’re giving up.

Donald Trump: No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.

I am so done with these inane stories. "He thinks water is made of hydrogen and oxygen. She thinks water is unicorn pee that has been filtered through the hair of angels. What can be done to bridge this gap?"

She thinks the election was stolen from Donald Trump. He believes what dozens of courts and officials have found: that Joe Biden is the rightful winner. They're trying to find common ground but wonder whether they – and the nation – can do it. http://apne.ws/H3X0TOv

Well, trumpmis a liar, and they support him completely.

Not sure trump is capable of knowing what the word liar means.

Here is another one that needs to be investigated, remember she said that Trump was smart and took in and comprehended all the information she was giving him

Birx last May talking about Donald:

“He’s been so attentive to the scientific literature and the details and the data,” Birx said. “I think his ability to analyze and integrate data that comes out of his long history in business has really been a real benefit during these discussions about medical issues.”

Here are the damning Rudy Giuliani admissions that will help Dominion take him to the cleaners

   
Dominion Voting Systems filed a massive $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit against Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani on Monday over his false claims that the company rigged the 2020 election on behalf of President Joe Biden.

One challenge for Dominion will be not only showing that Giuliani's claims about the company are false, but that they were made with malicious intent, as proving malice is an essential component of any successful defamation lawsuit.

Writing on Twitter, attorney Akiva Cohen flags a section from Dominion's lawsuit that he says will give the company real proof that Giuliani maliciously lied about them as part of an effort to justify charging hefty legal fees to the Trump campaign.

Specifically, Dominion noted that Giuliani only talked about Dominion during public appearances, but went completely silent about the company when actually arguing before courts in his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

During a court hearing about the results of the 2020 election in Pennsylvania, for instance, Giuliani admitted that the Trump campaign "doesn't plead fraud" and said that "this is not a fraud case."

The GOP Is Beginning To Fracture

Polling shows that a large majority of Republicans are still in thrall to Trump to be sure, but somewhere between one-fifth and one-fourth of the party has fallen away. A Pew poll taken after the insurrection found that more than 30% of Republicans disapprove of Trump. That may not seem like much but it is enough to make it impossible for Republicans to win nationally if those people fall away from the GOP permanently. As the Atlantic's Ron Brownstein put it, "if Biden could lastingly attract even a significant fraction of the Republican voters dismayed over the riot, it would constitute a seismic change in the political balance of power."

Dominion don't even have to do any legal discovery......they already have hours and hours of 5-6 Fox talking heads.....completely  slandering Dominion on video.  Fish in barrel.
I rate the chances of them going after Fox as....100%

If they really want to end this voter fraud stuff they simply need to announce an investigation into voter fraud, with specific attention paid to states where the Republicans massively outperformed the polling. That would get them all quite PDQ

They could also take a hard look at voter suppression laws and tactics, while they are at it.......

Guarantee all the bitching and moaning is because they know how hard they cheated and still lost so therefore democrats must have cheated harder.

don't forget the gerrymandering

Sure is looking like the Republican Senators are going to forgive and forget to save themselves in 2022, at least the ones up for reelection. I see no way they convict Trump

Fox has already done their full retracting. All their talking heads, including chief racist, Tucker, and chief idiot Sean, have done it. They don't mention Dominion now when they're peddling their election fraud idiocy.
