The Democrats and News Media (same thing) would have us believe there were no improprieties related to the 2020 election; that there was nothing wrong with the voting machines, that the sudden surge in mail-in ballots at the end was a coincidence, and Joe Biden won the presidential election by record numbers; not bad for someone who hid in his basement during most of the campaign, and was easily defeated by Hillary Clinton, not just once, but twice in prior elections. Let us also not forget President Trump earned ten million more votes than the 2016 election where he handily defeated Mrs. Clinton. According to the Dems/Media, everything was legitimate and anyone contesting the findings are obnoxious sore losers. They even went so far as to label the contention that the election was fixed, “The Big Lie,” thereby trying to put the onus back on the Republicans to prove it or shut-up. This is a story that simply will not go away any time soon.
The drama continues as they are slowly auditing the electoral processes in the battleground states of Arizona, Georgia, and Michigan. The press insists they have “turned up zero evidence of systemic voter fraud and confirmed the Election Day results.” Not so fast. As much as the Dems/Media want to see this issue swept under the rug, the election audits are actually expanding, hence the Left viciously ridicules anyone supporting “The Big Lie.” Although I personally believe they will find irregularities, the Republicans only have to find just one substantial problem to hang their hat on before pushing this in the courts, something the Dems/Media will openly resist. As much as they want to see this all go away, millions of Americans have doubts about the legitimacy of the election.
To illustrate, a recent Ipsos/Reuters Poll: “The Big Lie” (May 21, 2021) should be cause for concern by the Dems/Media. The poll used responses from 2,007 adults, including 909 Democrats, 754 Republicans, and 344 Independents. Of particular interest, the poll found:
* 61% of Republicans believe the election was “stolen” from Trump, as does 19% of Independents and 10% of Democrats.
* 56% of Republicans believe the election was rigged for the result of illegal voting, as does 16% of Independents and 5% of Democrats.
* 53% of Republicans think Donald Trump is the actual President, not Joe Biden, as does 22% of Independents, and 3% of Democrats.
* Whereas 86% of Democrats believe mail-in/absentee ballots were counted correctly, 71% of Republicans did not, nor did 26% of Independents.
No matter how you slice it, the 2020 election is perceived as tainted by a lot of Americans. Everyone knows it, particularly the Dems/Media. This explains why they continuously push back with “The Big Lie” slur to denigrate anyone who doesn’t tow the party line. A typical Dem/Media talking point refutes all this by stating something like, “Dozens of courts rejected Trump’s challenges to the results, but Trump and his supporters have persisted in pushing baseless conspiracy theories on conservative news outlets.” In other words, it is the fault of conservative news outlets for spreading “The Big Lie.” No, not really, but this is what they would have us believe as they see this as an opportunity to undermine the popular conservative news.
Again, the election will forever be remembered as being tainted and, as such, the American people are losing their faith in our ability to conduct honest elections which will ultimately have long-term repercussions. Now is the time to clean this up, not later, particularly as the 2024 election looms closer. The point is, will we tolerate another suspicious election and the politicians that come along with it? I hope not.
Let us for a moment assume it is discovered the election was fixed. Will the Democrat politicians falsely elected go quietly into the night? And will their legislation and executive orders be automatically rescinded? In a word, No. They will stay firmly in their positions until forceably removed by the courts. Only then will we really know if our Republic truly works.
Keep the Faith!
