The Big Steal was BIPARTISAN.
The GOP wanted to be rid of Trump mas much as the Democrats.
Yes, it was. 'Rats and 'Rat-following pubs, each one checks a box of the 3 'B's.
Blackmail. Bribery. Befuddled.

Time Ragazine told us a few days ago, motivating those at the lower levels by telling them "Trump is Hitler. Anything you do is LITERALLY stopping Hitler, as in the early 1930's". This would be the "Befuddled" box, plus possibly the "Bribery" box if needed.
The Time Ragazine article reads like OJ's book.
