| [Townhall] When the Electoral College meets Monday, it will almost surely certify former Vice President Joe Biden as the 46th president of the United States. And he will take the oath of office Jan. 20. There is, nationally, a growing if grudging realization of that reality. Yet millions of Americans will refuse to accept the legitimacy of that election and its outcome and will continue to believe, with President Donald Trump, that it was "rigged." "Was the 2020 election stolen by the establishment to get rid of a president, Donald Trump, whom it loathed?" will be debated decades hence -- as are questions such as, "Did FDR have advance knowledge the Japanese were going to attack?" and, "Did Lee Harvey Oswald act alone in Dallas?" That perception that something was afoot first arose in the minds of millions in the hours after the election on Nov. 3, when 83% of Republicans polled by Gallup said they did not believe reports of Trump's defeat. Things perceived as real are real in their consequences. And there was justification for that perception. Who was not stunned to learn that as Trump seemed to be pulling ahead in the voting count on Nov. 3, suddenly, around midnight, the vote counting appeared to stop in the crucial swing states, and we were told it would begin again early the next morning? Why the halt? Again, things perceived as real are real in their consequences. The Washington Post reports this week that, midway between Election Day and Inauguration Day, only 27 congressional Republicans would acknowledge Biden's win. Some 220 GOP members of the House and Senate -- 88% of Republicans serving in Congress -- would not say who won the election. |

| #1 There's nothing to debate. Probably 75% of the voters were let in the dark by this country's newsmedia regarding the undeniable corruption and likely compromise of the Democrat candidate by the Chinese Communist Party. Had our media not given him such an in-kind donation, there is no way he would have won. In fact, he very likely would have been forced to leave the race, if not politics altogether. He and his family would likely have been indicted on many of the same charges that have already resulted in convictions and prison terms for their corrupt American and Chinese business partners: money laundering, tax fraud, bribery and violation of the FCPA. This election was rigged as early as the beginning of October, when every single major media outlet except the New York Post and Tucker Carlson's show put a spike through the story of Biden's corruption and compromise by China. The Election Night absentee ballot bullshit was simply the cherry on this shit-sundae. The fix was in, weeks before Nov. 3. |
