At least a third of Republican midterm candidates who have taken steps to run next year for the US Senate or House of Representatives have “embraced” former President Donald Trump’s “big lie” about his 2020 election defeat, according to a new report.

In an analysis of the GOP contenders who have filed the early paperwork with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to run for Congress next year, The Washington Post’s Amy Gardner describes how a number of Republican candidates have become “increasingly focused on the last election”.

Many of them, she said, have launched their campaigns running on Mr Trump’s false claims about the 2020 election being rigged and “stolen” from him by President Joe Biden.

Probably about 95% went around screaming that the 2000 election was “stolen” from Al Gore. But NO ONE in the media complained about that at the time and said the RATS were causing a “danger to democracy” by promoting the “big lie” about Florida and not accepting George W. Bush as the legitimately elected president. Hmmm. Simple oversight on the mainstream media’s part, I’m sure...
