"The Senate is missing."

4. The only difference it would have made is it would have taken a few more hours to finish certifying.

5. And what do you think the outcome of having a Senator object would have been?

A symbolic gesture followed by another defeat. Not sure what that gets us as a practical matter. It certainly didn't get us anything in 2005. And at least those objections were targeted at a specific state's votes. The process was never intended to be used to make generalized complaints about an election outcome.

7. We need to stop making it easy for them!!

Can you imagine the uproar the pukes would be raising if Russia had interfered in a Democrats' favor? Not to mention the shit storm faux news would be stirring up if Comrade casino had won by 2.9 million votes and lost the EC. Just rolling over is never gonna get us anywhere. Fight them every step! Obstruct! Filibuster! (until they nuke it and they will) Use every procedural tactic available to impede, slow or stop confirmations of judges, cabinet members etc. Going along "for the good of the Nation" is what got us here.

6. Maybe the Senator's didn't want to look stupid?

8. As a constituent I think they look stupid and weak and lazy. n/t
