Do We Still Have to Pretend the 2020 Election Was ‘Free and Fair’?
American Thinker ^ | 27 Nov, 2024 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 11/27/2024 3:57:29 AM PST by MtnClimber

The 2020 Presidential election shared a problem with the 1998 MLB home run race: the winning candidate did too well. In 1998, steroid juicer Mark McGwire broke Roger Maris’s home run record by nine home runs or roughly 15 percent.

In 2020, Joe Biden’s 81 million votes broke Barack Obama’s 2008 record 69 million votes by 12 million votes or roughly 17 percent. Obama’s 2008 numbers were anomalous. Hillary Clinton’s 2016 numbers were closer to the norm, and Biden got nearly 25 percent more votes than she did, a cool 16 million additional votes when finally counted.

Campaigning from his basement, this cognitively-challenged, charisma-free codger did much too well in 2020, and now even the Left is noticing. With virtually all the 2024 presidential election votes counted, Kamala Harris’s vote total remains roughly seven million votes shy of Biden’s ballot box-busting performance in 2020.

In trying to explain the differential, Michael Bender of the New York Times hinted at the truth. Wrote Bender, “[S]ome backsliding could be expected after the record turnout in 2020, which was aided by pandemic rule changes that increased mail voting.” You think?

As should be expected, Bender chose not to pursue this line of thinking to its natural end. If he had, he might have asked why only the Democrats seemed to have been aided in 2020 “by pandemic rule changes.” President-elect Donald Trump did not “backslide” in 2024. He upped his 2020 vote total by about two million.

In 2024, with life back to something like normal, Harris was denied the performance-enhancing juice that propelled Biden in 2020. That juice was formidable. The convenient arrival of COVID gave the Democrats a rationale for dismantling the safeguards against voter fraud in state after state.

It looked like there was fraud in all of the swing states.

I think we have to. The repercussions of proving fraud would be a huge blow to the country. We can’t afford crush what little confidence we have left in the government and the likelihood of civil war would be too great. Best thing to do is correct the cause and disinfect the system but do it quietly or at least quieter than the Clinton’s corrected Jeffery Epstein.

The 2020 election was STOLEN, every normally intelligent person has known that since then, and no person of integrity should have EVER pretended otherwise.

I have no doubts about it. To their credit, the Republicans were ready this time.

If Trump’s investigation into the 2020 election finds out who ordered the vote count to stop at 10 PM in the swing states it will expose the conspiracy. It is obvious that they stopped the count to calculate the number of fake votes needed to carry the swing states by a reasonable margin. Biden’s 81 million came from huge vote dumps in CA, NY and IL.

When corruption is ignored you just get more of it. Full exposure with the resulting repercussions to the perpetrators is absolutely necessary. The 2020 steal is the greatest internal threat to America ever. Say what you will about the Civil War, but the outcome was a return to a Constitutional Republic. The 2020 steal was the USA teetering on the brink of totalitarianism. Trump’s 2024 success has stymied the forces of the left, but only temporarily.

Never pretended. I knew the minute those states all halted counting the fix was in. I turned it all off and went to bed. The inevitable Biden “winning” unfolded and my surprise meter did not move. I held out a vain hope the courts might intervene but that was quashed. We are reaching the end of the immediate results of that steal. I’m sure there will still be much underlying influence from it going forward. We can’t change the past but hopefully we can learn some lessons from it.

Now that Trump has won again in 2024, we should be thankful that he “lost” in 2020. If he had won, he would be two months away from to leaving the White House permanently instead of making preparations for his second term in office!

There was no cheating. The d’s were just better at curing ballots. This is according to a guy I know, who explained it to me in tedious detail. I had never heard the explanation that biden “won” because of ballot curing.

2020 was statistically impossible beyond a doubt. How does Biden lose hundreds more counties than Obama and still get 12 million more votes ? Because he made up for it in urban areas. lol And don’t just take the claim of journalists and governors. Published, peer reviewed studies have shown the same. Trump will go after it and he should have done so when challenged at the last debate.

“It looked like there was fraud in all of the swing states.”

There was a big drop off in Harris votes compared with Biden in New York and California. Which would suggest there was a general drop off in support that was not limited to the swing states.

C’mon, man!...To say that the Biden-Harris crew were the winners in 2020 is like saying that shoplifters in California who steal $950 worth of merchandise are winners.

No, I don’t believe 2020 was legit, but it was a necessary precursor for what’s about to happen.

Or that the criminals stealing Super Bowl rings won the Super Bowl. They may have the trophy, but they did not win.
