In case anybody was wondering, Finchem got steamrolled 🤣Turns out being an election denier isn't a winning strategy 🤷
-
'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.

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
-
These people have lost their minds
-
What amazes me is when they claim they have the evidence, but do not reveal it.
-
"It was not legit. Anyone with half a brain knows that." TRUE. Those of us with an entire brain know better.
-
Imagine if the oath keepers guarded schools instead of election boxes. Or if all this energy and passion were used to end hunger.
-
Notice how finchem goes quickly to physical intimidation with the reporter as soon as he gets a legitimate question asked.
-
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…
-
Stupidity and a really bad education are a horrible combination!
-
I'm so proud of Arizona for kicking finchem to the curb where he belongs 👏 💙
-
The irony of Finchem using Fortunate Son at one of his rallies is not lost on me.
-
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.
-
Republican logic: It’s fine when I win but rigged when I lose. 😂
-
The American educational system has failed miserably.
-
They look nuts.
-
Scary how nuts the Trumpers are, turns out deplorables was absolutely the right description of these people.
-
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.
-
they have never showed a lick of evidence!
