So we had an election. We voted. We all voted. We know.
And now, the man we voted out isn't recognizing and won't recognize our vote, that vote, that election, our election.
He's denying the vote, the votes, he's denying us all. He's denying our Democracy.
What is that if not a Constitutional crisis?
We've all seen the headlines.
Donald Trump in denial over election defeat
And unfortunately, too many in that, his political party are going along with this absurdity, this insult to us all.
McConnell declines in floor speech to congratulate Biden
And of course, Fox is aiding and abetting this obscenity, this ugliness, even this stupidity.
The network is broadcasting the Trump campaign’s debunked conspiracy theories and unproven allegations to millions each night.
As it goes on, Trump has done more and more bizarre things.
Unfortunately, very unfortunately, if not also predictably, our own Senator Blunt even joined in on Trump's absurd claims. Because, you know, you HAVE to put your political party before the country, before the nation and before the people and even before what's right. Right??
Rep. Will Hurd of Texas tweeted that Trump's comments are "not only dangerous & wrong, it undermines the very foundation this nation was built upon."
Fortunately for the state of Georgia and all of us, really, there is this guy and anyone and everyone like him, standing up and doing what's right.
This is only one city but it's an excellent example of just what this President and his supporters have to show for their denying our election, votes and the results.
And I love this next one.
Lawyers Litigating for Trump Suddenly Remember Their Licenses Are on the Line If They Lie to a Judge
Even Fox, EVEN FOX, folks! is doing the right thing on this, at least in this one instance, anyway.
Also from Fox, this broke yesterday, thankfully.
U.S. Sen. James Lankford said there was “nothing wrong” with the idea of Biden receiving intelligence briefings
And it's not just this one Senator, either, that's calling for Biden to get intelligence briefings though Senator Lankford did, later, back off this original stand I read.
"Nothing wrong" with Biden receiving intelligence briefings. Nothing wrong and everything right about it.
Then, not just from Fox but from TUCKER CARLSON HIMSELF, two days ago, folks.
That alone is pretty incredible. That was followed by this. Even Karl Rove can read this writing on the wall.
Ohio's Mike Dewine spoke up yesterday, thank goodness, as all Republicans should.
Today, this broke. It does look as though the tide is finally, finally turning on this President's denial of our election and votes, thank goodness. It shouldn't have been necessary.
It's as I said before here, it's obvious why Trump wants, no, needs to deny our votes and election, too. According to the New York Times, he owes nearly, if not completely 1 billion dollars to who knows who out there in the world, New York State, at least, is going after him for his taxes in two different cases and then there's this.
And the above doesn't even address any and all possible investigations of wrongdoing and/or illegality/illegalites he may have committed while President.
It's as I said in Donald Trump's first year in office, he's in WAY over his head. He had no idea what he was getting into but now he's there and he doesn't want to deal with any of it, let alone all.
Then the Washington Post poses this unsurprising possibility.
Then there's this ugly trend, overall, from and by his political party.
Here's yet more of the enabling cowards that is the Republican Party.
This is one of the things that is most concerning about this entire situation, too, with Trump challenging, denying our votes and election.
Meanwhile, we have still no leadership whatever, of course, from this excuse for a President out of his White House or administration since he's paying far more attention to covering his hide and tracks.
US Coronavirus cases hit daily high, more than 140,000
Look at this fact that just broke today.
The most single-day COVID-19 deaths since May AND IT'S NOT EVEN WINTER YET.
So with all this, then, where are we? Where does this leave us? Besides the fact that this orange excuse for a President is shaping us into his own banana republic, where does this leave us now? And then, what do we do?
And here is where I say we have to stand up and speak up and speak out, all we can, especially to our Republican Party officeholders and tell them what we need, what we want. We need to tell them what, exactly, needs to happen next and that is, that this President and all in his political party must, at long last, recognize our vote, our votes, our election, our Democracy and demand he, Donald Trump, concede this election. We must demand it.
So with that, I post here, below, a link to go to so you can email and phone, both, preferably, your, our government representatives, to tell them this must happen and it needs to take place sooner, rather than later. Today is not too soon. Indeed, it is late in this process. It is very late. Please contact your representatives. Maybe especially Missouri's own Senators Roy Blunt and Josh Hawley. Thank you in advance.
Two more links. Let's be clear.
Then, once Trump is gone, a way forward?? Dare I say? Or even think? Hope?
