Why I will not accept Joe Biden as president
Washington Times ^ | 21 dec 2020 | Newt Gingrich

Posted on 12/22/2020 10:47:18 AM PST by Rummyfan

A smart friend of mine who is a moderate liberal asked why I was not recognizing Joe Biden’s victory.

The friend made the case that Mr. Biden had gotten more votes, and historically we recognize the person with the most votes. Normally, we accept the outcome of elections just as we accept the outcomes of sporting events.

So, my friend asked why was 2020 different?

Having spent more than four years watching the left #Resist President Donald Trump and focus entirely on undoing and undermining the 2016 election, it took me several days to understand the depth of my own feelings.

As I thought about it, I realized my anger and fear were not narrowly focused on votes. My unwillingness to relax and accept that the election grew out of a level of outrage and alienation unlike anything I had experienced in more than 60 years involvement in public affairs.

The challenge is that I — and other conservatives — are not disagreeing with the left within a commonly understood world. We live in alternative worlds.

Will not accept China-Joe-Ho because he lost.

Stealing is not winning and stealing does not create ownership rights. Stealing should be punished to the maximum to discourage future theft.

Honestly, we should organize and attend, fill the mall with Trump supporters and shout Trump Trump Trump

Hold Trump Signs

MAGA

Make the media try to “edit us out”

force them to do that

It would piss them off

Mr. Biden is not the President-elect. He cannot become President. He will never be my President.

I believe it is the right, even the duty of every State in the union to immediately begin proceedings to secede. The union is no-longer abiding by the Constitution nor the laws and ideals that created it.

I further believe I should not be paying taxes to a government that clearly is in violation of numerous laws. I am seriously considering if this is the time and place to make a stand, and what I am willing to do if/when they inevitably come for me.

Congress cares more about doping in professional sports than a massive provable
conspiracy to commit election fraud and install a fully compromised and corrupt
puppet of China and the socialist left as President of the United States.

The toilet desperately needs flushing before we turn into the latest Venezuela.

I read it and I like Newt. He waffled a bit in the interview with Hewitt.

Newt is right about the fraud and as someone who has followed him since before he was speaker he is genuinely pissed.

Newt is usually pretty direct (one of his better traits). I agree with Newt’s anger about this election and deep concern for what this means, but given his recent comments and interviews he is saying “it is up to Trump.”

If an election was stolen and was the result of fraud the only right answer is not to legitimize it. I usually err towards the side of decorum and tradition, but we are in unusually ugly times.

FRegards.

"A smart friend of mine who is a moderate liberal asked why I was not recognizing Joe Biden’s victory."

The first reply of any patriot as to why the red tsunami of patriots who support Trump aren’t recognizing Biden’s fraud-ridden “victory” imo is "what “news” channel do you watch?" and invite them to start reading Free Republic.

Also, if anybody hasn't considered the following White House petition to help keep Trump in Oval Office, please support it.

Trump was duly elected despite all the deep state opposition. Harris/Biden, not so much.

They are indeed illegitimate. I will treat them as such. I never listened to one damn thing Obozo spewed from his mouth and I’ll never listen to these two.

Cheatin sumbitches.
