Trump 2024. Make America Gaslite Again 🇺🇸
Trump 2024. Keep America Gaslite 🇺🇸
MTG'S soon to be ex husband has proof also according to her. Unfortunately, he has yet to come forward to show it. Lol
The proof is always somewhere but never shown. And the stuff shown in court was thrown out due to stupidity
This didn't age well🤣
In case anybody was wondering, Finchem got steamrolled 🤣Turns out being an election denier isn't a winning strategy 🤷
Came here to say that. Every Big Lie states attorney candidate lost.
Lake found that out also.
Right
Did you see when Fincham was questioned the second time, he said postal voting would affect "MY position", not the transparency in local elections? The truth slipped out there! It's all about HIS base, HIS voice, HIS platform!
I had to look it up. Thank you common sense Arizonans!
'I have a background in statistics and I know this was stolen.'
Being a compulsive gambler doesn't count as you having a background in statistics.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol
And a background in donuts.
What about being over weight ,with a bad hair cut does that count ?
Hahahahah
I'm so proud of Arizona for kicking finchem to the curb where he belongs 👏 💙
I'm a Republican. I voted Dem straight ticket 2022 and I will continue until DOJ holds Trump accountable. Republican s for Democrats until DOJ puts Trump in jail
Thank you. You give me hope. Every time I find out someone else I know or like is a Trumper my heart breaks.
Thank you for your help in defeating these lunatics
Thank you. The country needs your party to get back to proper opposition/leadership so we can get things done. No one wins when one party's entire raison d'être is pure and simple obstruction.
I used to vote person, not party. Until Republicans rejoin reality, I can't do that.
Thank you my friend! I'm a dem and it gives me great pleasure to know that some republicans or former do see the monster he is.... Be well
"It was not legit. Anyone with half a brain knows that."
TRUE. Those of us with an entire brain know better.
Hahaha touché
Lol ok
Those of you who think the election was stolen even after Trump is on AUDIO crying to white house staff HOW DID HE LOSE TO THAT FI-NG GUY PROVING THAT HE KNEW ALL ALONG HE LOST THE ELECTION FAIR AND SQUARE. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR COMING ON RUclips WITH YOUR CONTINUOUSLY DISHONESTY ABOUT THE ELECTION BEING STOLEN WHEN WE ALL KNOW INCLUDING TRUMP HIMSELF IT WASN'T STOLEN.
@@donjackson4563 and his supporters knew too! Fascists faking to give reason to violently overthrow the government.
Snarky but spot on:D!!!!
Serious question: is there such a thing as a happy Republican? I ask because it seems to me that they’re angry when they win, they’re angry now that they lost…they just always seem really angry…
That is so true!
Same as the angry brexity lot we have here.
Legitimately; they’re always angry and yelling at someone red in the face with veins popping out of their necks and foreheads.
@@James-to7pi exactly.
They are always angry because they are miserable losers
I’m in AZ and I’d just like to point out that we voted blue and I believe we will again. We’re not all like these people.
Notice how finchem goes quickly to physical intimidation with the reporter as soon as he gets a legitimate question asked.
That's all they know to do when logic comes into view.
What amazes me is when they claim they have the evidence, but do not reveal it.
Hard to reveal what's not there. Delusion is strong with these ppl
Yup, how many times has My Pillow jagoff claimed he had proof, never ever showed it. Just go away, Mikey
They're waiting for an opening in Bigfoots schedule so he can ride in on a Unicorn and drop the evidence off in Finchums office.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🖕🇺🇸
You will never see it watching garbage CNN smh 🤦♀️
just like Schiff, Hillary and the other election deniers of 2016
Mark Finchem LOST his race for Arizona Sec. of State, mercifully.
Hopefully Kari Lake will also...
@@rcpilot179 Scary Lake? She's just a Sarah Palin wannabe, that is an egotist wanting to be a television star.
@@rcpilot179 She lost! Not be nearly enough, but she lost!
@@rcpilot179 she lost
That had to sting him in the balls bad.
Imagine if the oath keepers guarded schools instead of election boxes. Or if all this energy and passion were used to end hunger.
I agree, that should be a very important first priority and concern if they voted and cared so much about no abortion laws, etc... their attention should be somewhere else more important! You see, our children need protection from our own people's actions! Btw, why display guns? We're civilized human beings, grown, of age, to know our civil duties. We don't need their presence. This shouldn't be allowed to happen at all. ☹️
I wouldn’t want one of those creeps around my kid.
They would soon make it to the endangered species list
What oath do they swear to? I, and all other military people, have sworn to "protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against ALL enemies, both foreign and domestic". Donald Trump has said that he will"Abolish the Constitution and be a dictator...". 📜🇺🇸🌊👍
These people have lost their minds
Republican logic: It’s fine when I win but rigged when I lose. 😂
Democrats act the same way. In 2016 democrats had their own meltdown
@@fobbitguy they never stormed the capitol or chanted stop the steal. You can't equate an off-white colour with pitch black.
@@fobbitguy they didn’t storm the capitol or claim the election was fraudulent though.
@@fobbitguy they didn't act as if it was stolen tho. Meltdown because they knew the damage Trump would do and they were right. You lot still can't accept the result from 2 years ago 😂😂😂

The irony of Finchem using Fortunate Son at one of his rallies is not lost on me.
Someone should’ve let Fogerty know so he could order a cease and desist.
These people are absolutely insane! & 3 wks later, we sent most of em packing! Thanks so much to everyone who came out & voted....WELL DONE! 🥰
Scary how nuts the Trumpers are, turns out deplorables was absolutely the right description of these people.
She called it because she knew. Too bad people didn’t listen.
You are in for a surprise, look into Hindutva.
The whole world can see that Biden is not all there and that he's making it hard for his people. And on the world stage he incompetent
@@goutfromfriedokra3936 Trump defrauded over 5,000 students at $35,000 each. Many of these students were veterans who were devastated. That’s $175 Million. He settled for $25 Million and walked away with $150 Million. Trump increased the National debt so Big (even before the pandemic) that it will weigh down the U.S. economy for years. 7.8 trillion. It amounts to about $23,000 in new federal debt for every person in this country. The growth in the annual deficit under Trump ranks as the third biggest increase of any U.S. presidential administration. Unlike Abraham Lincoln or George W. Bush, Trump did this without any foreign conflicts or having to pay for a civil war.
@@goutfromfriedokra3936 ofc you are. You don't live in reality.
Finchum is a real piece. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near my children and I wouldn’t want him in an elected office representing my state.
The thing to remember is that in AZ we have no Lt Governor so if Lake wins and then steps out of the office for any reason, we have an OathKeeper and an insurrectionist as our Governor.
He acts like Marjorie Taylor Green we she is asked a question by someone other than fox and Newsmax. We are in serious trouble if these people win.
@@teresalee467 Indeed we are in serious trouble if that lunatic wins, but people are going to have to learn the hard way I guess. It seems like this country needs to go through a lot of suffering before it realizes the peace it had in having civilized politics.
@@davidherber7096 That’s right, but at the end of the day there’s a lot of people in Arizona that could vote and make the difference but are stuck in the thought that their vote simply doesn’t make a difference because it’s one vote. We have a lot of small minded people in Arizona that don’t understand how democracy works in a republic. People are just gonna have to learn the hard way I guess.
@@davidherber7096 Which is probably thier plan.
They look nuts.
they have never showed a lick of evidence!
I've watched this twice just to let it sink in, it's hard to believe it's come to this, Donald Trump truly broke this country.
He did not break this country. He just tapped into something that already existed.
Something that every non-white person already know was there...
I am very afraid of the future for our children
@@msp5138
The country was never perfect, but we were making progress, things were getting better, Trump put the whole thing in reverse, in that way, he did break the country, our nation hasn't been this divided since the Civil War.
@@g.e.martin1723k dude, I totally agree. Wow.
Finchem isn't the only one running Trump has turned lose several crazy's running for secretary of state this was a concerted effort by Trump to put in place people who will overturn an election in 2024 for him. The only hope we have is either DOJ, or Georgia putting Trump in Prison.
Republicans: "heads we win, tails you cheated"
Just follow the Constitution, easy
@@adarkimpurity Allowing unlimited campaign donation$ from anywhere in the world is a Republican idea... not from the AZ voter!
Bravo Sir. Bravo.
Trump lost but local republicans won their races. How fixed could it be?
That’s spot on.
You should have asked him for his evidence as to why he believes the 29th time he voted was filled with doubt. Sixty federal judges disagreed.
They absolutly cannot defend what they are saying, so they walk away. EVERYTIME.
These people not only vote; they also procreate. This is terrifying
Unfortunately these people & the parents of the other people there never used abortion when it was legal LOL
They haven't been able to get it up since 1989
😂😂😂😂
lol. I know!
This has to stop. Republicans are producing brain dead zombies.
Pillow guy, “they won’t let me say…” then precedes to say everything “they” won’t let him say 😂
Yep
He can say it as much as he wants but at this stage he is just providing more evidence for the cases against him.
He's going to present the evidence in 2 weeks for the last 18 months. Just like tRUmp's Healthcare plan and infrastructure. 🙄
🤣😂🤣😂
Because none of what he said was edited right? Because you saw everything yeah?
Never before realized that there are so many crazy people in this country.
It would be nice to see some actual evidence rather than lunatics ranting. When will Republicans focus on quality candidates and policies that help the majority of citizens?
It takes balls to go into the cave of the beast. Hats off to the reporter. Amazing work from the Guardian.

I was born in Arizona and I will be voting in Arizona for Democrats...because I like free and fair elections, climate action, energy security along with truth and reality.
@Rik Mehta You don't...what? Please explain your perspective sir.

Insanity lost! Kudos to the voters in Arizona, who chose the republic over trumpian autocracy!
Just hearing how each candidate speaks is mind-blowing. The republican candidate raises his voice, deflects, and ultimately walks away.
And Mr Fontes gives a lesson in patience and humility...
The Liars of Liberty 🤔 sounds about right
They literally just copied trumps playbook, down to the way he talks, moves, deflects, and attacks.
Republicans are at the point of no return if they lose, the must stay on this warpath.
Their goal is to do everything possible to hang on, they are deep down the rabbit hole and the leaders know it.
If they ( republicans) can win in 2024, democrats will become who they are facing I believe...hopefully I'm wrong.
Like trying to reason with a 5 year old. When he doesn't like something he yells, whines, name calls and refuses to have a constructive discussion.
Then after the face to face yelling he walks away. What a man child.
Confidence and stupidty are a very dangerous combination. But they generally go together in the form of GOP.
Its not stupidity, they purposefully lie to establish their political ideology. They want to rule.
You've pretty much summed up the Dunning-Kruger Incompetence Syndrome right there. But beware, it is an independent variable and we are therefore all equally subject to its cruel realisation in our own behaviors from time to time. That said the GOP seem to excel in it as if they were practicing a skill :-/
These are groups of angry but hopeless people....
After 3 audits, one by their hand picked cyber ninjas and they still believe it was stolen. Wow
I wondered what happened about that audit? It seems like they went silent after the "results".
They just want to believs it .
Insanity.

Apparantly you guys didn't see the Cyber Ninjas findings
This makes me weep for my state.

Thank you Arizona.
This is why we should have been valuing our education system more. Let this be a warning to other countries.
Believe me, the rest of the world is watching. Greetings from Canada.
Many do value the educational system.. its been in a deep erosion since at least the 1990s: bringing corporate programs into schools, mediocre standardized testing, balancing local budgets at the expense of schools and teacher salaries. The Charter schools movement. These policies are usually driven by conservatives and GOP who want to break down all government functions. Then they say, "See! Government doesn't work!". THEN all that govt funding goes into the pockets of their cronies in the private for-profit sector.
@@eh3477 seems like too many serving the economy rather than our children’s future every where we look.
They need to legalize marijuana, and use that money to pay teachers more, and other ways to help school systems
This is why the republikkons keep taking funding out of the public school system..like trump said..."i love the uneducated".... of course you do...easier to grift
Angry people because they're always lying. They'll feel MUCH better if they tell the truth.
I love how the word "fact" comes up more than once, and yet nobody seems to be able to provide these "facts". Ignorance really must be bliss for these people.
Not American, but delighted to hear that Fontes won. And the Democrats are keeping the Senate.
Really? Dems have the Senate as of 14 11 22 ? I’m not a person who identifies as a (insert many options) qualified observer, however who, where, when was that a fact. I thought one of the seats was being re voted on 6 12 2022. Not your fault. We only get that news much later than when it happens.
Nice, now that will really radicalise the right even further.
@@Lancelot_Jago The Dem Senator in Nevada won her seat. So that only leaves the Georgia run off.
@@imisstoronto3121 ...which means that the Democrats already have 50 seats in the Senate...regardless of what happens in Georgia...and think about what kind of candidate the gop is running in that state...
The dems have the senate because the tie breaking vote comes from the vice prez. Which right now is a dem. So if rep. Win Georgia they have 50 seats while dems have 51.
These people look exactly like i imagined

It is insane that they are about to put the last nail in the coffin of democracy but they are all rallying around the idea that they are saving it
They will have to live with their decision, but expect a lot of whining when Trump doesn't do what he promised, they will blame the Democrats, what else is new...

I sometimes just think that the Americans deserve everything they get if they elect trump and these other jokers but then I realize that they will also impact the entire world after that! Scary times people
You have to remember, Trump lost the popular vote in 2016. He won the election in 2016 through a convoluted and archaic election process referred to as the electoral college. That means more Americans voted against Trump than for him in 2016. Even more Americans voted against him in 2020. The Republicans know this and see the pattern. This explains the new tactic of discouraging voters that are on the fence about even getting out to vote, rigging the ballot counting process and pushing election doubt. They cannot win a presidential election fairly. A minority party has no choice but to keep all eligible voters from participating or change the rules. Basic math proves this.
Sane Americans will be impacted too. And we are trying as hard as we can to bring some rationality.
@@itsjustme6632 problem is that while MAGAs agree on basically everything and push forward as a united group the opposition has so many different opinions on and views on the same politics that your message is sadly invisible

The only time i’ve seen this sort of intense, emotion based belief system has been with fringe religious types and thankfully that’s quite rare in the UK.

As a Canadian, I don't quite understand why Americans think they can just come live in Canada whenever they feel like it. We have our own laws around immigration.
it would be asylum, not immigration 😄
As Americans, it has been programmed into us over and over that we are the greatest most righteous people to ever walk the earth. So, most (without ever doing a scrap of research) just think that Canada (or anywhere else really) would roll out the red carpet despite having little to no skills (or anything useful) to contribute to the country they want to escape to.
We might humbly request to take refuge there if Kari Lake secedes Arizona from the USA and declares all border crossers an enemy invasion.
