I think Smiley gave the perfect answer. “Yes, he’s our President” while NOT answering, “Was he fairly elected, legitimately elected?” It’s obvious what Smiley really thinks. Which drives Bash crazy.
Personally, I would have answered, “Hell no, the election was stolen.” But, I’m not running for office.
” if a Republican admits President Joe Biden was legitimately elected “
A biased framing if there ever was one.
The accepted numbers would indicate, that yes, Biden was elected, but the devil is in the details.
For Biden to have won the election, there had to be 155 million voters turned out, at least, and patterns of participation in elections do not support this number. A more likely number would be about 140 million to 145 million, based on participation in past elections, and the overall population of the US, as determined by the last census. So perhaps as many as 10 to 15 million votes were some kind of “ghost voters”, but no systematic analysis of the vote has ever been recognized by any legal authority in any state, to the point that would throw the vote tally into question. There are pending law suits, but nothing has ever been determined in a court of law or recognized by ANY state legislature.
