Nine months ago, when followers of President Trump stormed the Capitol to halt the election of President Biden, the insurrection appeared to be the work of an extremist fringe led by right-wing militias and pro-Trump zealots.
But election denialism, the movement that spawned the uprising, has turned out to be much larger, more durable and every bit as worrisome as the violence of Jan. 6.
Stoked relentlessly by Trump, the belief that Biden stole the election has become a tenet of faith for most Republican voters.

Gosh, Doyle, thanks for the heads-up!
January 6th was not even an “event.” It was an entrapment on a grand scale.
“Shambolic” seems to be the shiny new word of the month. I’m seeing it uncomfortably squeezed into opinion pieces with increasing frequency lately. Maybe it will become more popular than “feckless” was last year, but that’s a tough record to beat.
lol
they can say “insurrection” for the next 100 years, but anyone with a brain knows it was a protest.
Ya think?
That one was a gubmit contrived joke.
Just wait until the tipping point comes.
Nothing is going to bring it back period. Regardless of what one side says the other side will claim it's wrong, biased, fake, whatever. That's not going to change soon.
