I have been pretty firm about my belief from the day after and onward that hundreds of thousands of state laws were broken on election day. I believed it then and I believe it now. Despite that, he still almost won. It was pretty amazing when you step back and look at it and it could only happen when the rule of law no longer applied (as discussed above).
The deep state/media cabal won that fight bigly. They threw microphones in the face of Sidney Powell and Lin Wood and made the whole thing look crazy (along with GP and some other alt-right media sites and even the MyPillow guy) and the next thing you know we are talking about an Italian hacker and the director of the CIA being dead in a bunker in Germany when the real steal was obvious (as well as the campaign interference ala Zuckerbucks).
They have perfected the art of marginalization so they will pick the craziest thing that weighs 50lbs and erase a ton of meat and they never stop hammering. As much as I hate their ability to control and shape the narrative you have to admire the cleverness of it.
They played 4D chess and Trump (and my kids) paid the price.
After they did that, a large chunk of the public assumed that there was NO cheating at all. I still believe the Biden forces cheated massively. Maybe Biden still would have won with just "a moderate amount of cheating," but there is no excuse.
Here is what kept Trump out of office:

Long time CTH reader “Regitiger” has spent a great deal of time reviewing the entire process, looking at the granular timeline and then overlaying the bigger picture of the constitutional and parliamentary process itself. What follows below is a brilliant analysis of the federal government motive to create a J6 crisis that permitted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to trigger an emergency session and avoid the 2020 election certification challenges.
Those congressional floor challenges, known and anticipated well in advance of the morning of January 6, 2021, would have formed a legal and constitutional basis for ‘standing’ in judicial challenges that would have eventually reached the Supreme Court. The certification during “emergency session” eliminated the problem for Washington DC.
Regitiger explains below, only edited by me for clarity and context:
I think most, not all, but a large number of people, are totally missing what happened; and why this happened on Jan 6th. I am going to try my best to outline the events that day, blast past the commonly held assumptions and get right down to the core corruption.
I will present this as a series of questions and answers.
