“If he concedes - as any other Republican would have done long ago - it is over.”
No other Republican before has been in a situation even slightly similar to this one, so maybe their concessions made sense on some level. The fraud in this election is like no other, and it’s on a grand scale. Of course Trump should NOT concede!
It’s true that the covid-justified mail-in voting has opened up the 2020 election process to unprecedented fraud.
Until 2020, widespread cheating was impossible due to the fact that >95% of voting was in-person Election Day voting - which by definition lends itself to one person one vote validation and physical accountability.
Mail-in absentee ballots were known to be much vulnerable to fraud - so election officials went to great lengths to mitigate those risks by adding powerful controls and verifications.
The massive covid-related change to mail-in voting was pushed by Democrats with an entirely cynical objective: namely to eliminate accountability and enable ballot harvesting. That was their plan all along.
But the Democrats have always been liars and cheaters as long as I can remember. I was only eight in 1960, but I remember my parents were livid - they were absolutely certain that Kennedy had stolen the election - and I believe it.
Hopefully, the Democrats have overplayed their hand this time - but I still contend that the real difference between 2020 and other stolen elections is not the extent of the cheating, but the courage of the man they are trying to cheat.
