Yeah, that'd be great. Wouldn't it all be worth it? The election is the single most important thing in the country, isn't it? So why not pull out all the stops to ensure that it is safe and secure?
Because existing procedures have already accomplished safety & security, and this additional enormous expenditure would do nothing: if those soldiers had been in place, you'd be here insinuating that they're all part of the plot.
2) One of the senators/congressmen, Lawful Evil in the meme, made a very similar point. "Why should we believe you when your team has 30,40,50, whatever the number was, failed lawsuits? Guiliani's response was "We only have 3".
Yes, Giuliani has been quite poor at keeping track of detail, I agree. Remember when the Judge asked him what standard of scrutiny should be applied (rational basis, intermediate, or strict) and he replied "the normal one"? Then seemed to admit he didn't know what the Judge meant by "scrutiny"?
Why do you believe that the republican workers and poll watchers are lying, exaggerating, and distorting?
Because they're republicans?
Probably because every time I've watched/read their testimony, it's been riddled with
really basic failures of understanding. Such as saying that using a USB is "illegal", or complaining about "due process" when they're prevented from writing up lists of voters on notepaper.
It looks to me like they're not attempting to deceive anybody or anything, but that they've been tremendously poorly trained on electoral procedure, security, and data handling, such that they have almost no understanding of what they're meant to be looking out for.
