О неуинности Трампа, из дискуссии
Вы таки выбрали тактику "а шо такова".
Ну давайте почитаем речь и решим, надо ли переводить как "сражаться", "бороться", и, главное, какой физический смысл под этими сражениями понимается.
----------
...
We took them by surprise and this year they rigged an election. They rigged it like they've never rigged an election before.
...
All of us here today do not want to see our election victory stolen by emboldened radical-left Democrats, which is what they're doing. And stolen by the fake news media. That's what they've done and what they're doing. We will never give up, we will never concede. It doesn't happen. You don't concede when there's theft involved.
We will not let them silence your voices. We're not going to let it happen, I'm not going to let it happen.
...
And I'll tell you. Thank you very much, John. Fantastic job. I watched. That's a tough act to follow, those two. John is one of the most brilliant lawyers in the country, and he looked at this and he said, "What an absolute disgrace that this can be happening to our Constitution."
----------
Здесь сделаем паузу. Кто такой John? Это John Eastman, который придумал план, по которому Пенс мог отослать обратно делегации выборщиков из 7ми штатов, которые определили выигрыш Байдена, таким способом отменив результаты выборов:
A conservative lawyer working with then-President Donald Trump’s legal team tried to convince then-Vice President Mike Pence that he could overturn the election results on January 6 when Congress counted the Electoral College votes by throwing out electors from seven states,
The scheme put forward by controversial lawyer John Eastman was outlined in a $ two-page memo$ obtained by the authors for “Peril,” and which was subsequently obtained by CNN. The memo, which has not previously been made public, provides new detail showing how Trump and his team tried to persuade Pence to subvert the Constitution and throw out the election results on January 6.
The effort to sway Pence was just one of several behind-the-scenes attempts that Trump’s team undertook ahead of January 6 in a desperate bid to overturn the 2020 election loss, after dozens of lawsuits were thrown out of the courts.
The Eastman memo laid out a six-step plan for Pence to overturn the election for Trump, which included throwing out the results in seven states because they allegedly had competing electors. In fact, no state had actually put forward an alternate slate of electors - there were merely Trump allies claiming without any authority to be electors.
Under Eastman’s scheme, Pence would have declared Trump the winner with more Electoral College votes after the seven states were thrown out, at 232 votes to 222. Anticipating “howls” from Democrats protesting the overturning of the election, the memo proposes, Pence would instead say that no candidate had reached 270 votes in the Electoral College. That would throw the election to the House of Representatives, where each state would get one vote. Since Republicans controlled 26 state delegations, a majority could vote for Trump to win the election.
---------
То есть простая схема: Пенс отсылает выборщиков из неправильных штатов, объявляет что голосов не хватает, и право выбрать ПОТУСа переходит к палате представителей, в которой большинство у репов.
Вот только пенс заупрямился.
Как же его переубедить?
Продолжаем читать речь:
------------
And he looked at Mike Pence, and I hope Mike is going to do the right thing. I hope so. I hope so.
Because if Mike Pence does the right thing, we win the election. All he has to do, all this is, this is from the number one, or certainly one of the top, Constitutional lawyers in our country. He has the absolute right to do it. We're supposed to protect our country, support our country, support our Constitution, and protect our constitution.
States want to revote. The states got defrauded. They were given false information. They voted on it. Now they want to recertify. They want it back. All Vice President Pence has to do is send it back to the states to recertify and we become president and you are the happiest people.
And I actually, I just spoke to Mike. I said: "Mike, that doesn't take courage. What takes courage is to do nothing. That takes courage." And then we're stuck with a president who lost the election by a lot and we have to live with that for four more years. We're just not going to let that happen.
They'll knock out Lincoln too, by the way. They've been taking his statue down. But then we signed a little law. You hurt our monuments, you hurt our heroes, you go to jail for 10 years, and everything stopped. You notice that? It stopped. It all stopped.
---------
Что он тут делает? Правильно, распаляет толпу. Напоминает обиды, реальные и выдуманные.
--------
We're gathered together in the heart of our nation's capital for one very, very basic and simple reason: To save our democracy.
---------
Что надо сделать, чтобы спасти демократию? Да вы тупой, что ли, он вам только что все распедалил - убедить Пенса.
--------
And Mike Pence is going to have to come through for us, and if he doesn't, that will be a, a sad day for our country because you're sworn to uphold our Constitution.
Now, it is up to Congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy. And after this, we're going to walk down, and I'll be there with you, we're going to walk down, we're going to walk down.
Anyone you want, but I think right here, we're going to walk down to the Capitol, and we're going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women, and we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them.
Because you'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong. We have come to demand that Congress do the right thing and only count the electors who have been lawfully slated, lawfully slated.
I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.

То есть эта фигуральная "борьба" выливается в совершенно конкретный план действий:
- марш на Капитолий
- найти сенаторов и конгрессменов и вайса
- "cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them." - то есть от лица разьяренной толпы "поприветствовать" правильных и "не совсем поприветствовать" неправильных и "уговорить" их отослать неугодных выборщиков обратно.
А виселица просто для украшения, да.
Так ответьте наконец - вы идиот или прикидываетесь?
