[...] carefully handled in order trick voters into choosing between the "lessor lesser of two evils" [...]

Biden may indeed have a "lease on evil" - which would make him a "lessor of evil" - but I don't think that that is what you were trying to say.

The straw that “broke the camel’s back” for him was media coverage of how migrant children were being detained in cages (built during the Obama administration) at the southern border, which also drew responses from evangelical leaders at the time and much uproar from the left.

Good link and which shows that is was indeed the Obama administration that built and used these cages first.

"In 2019, former Trump administration acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement Thomas Homan confirmed the migrant holding facilities were built during the Obama administration.... "The kids are being housed in the same facilities built under the Obama administration. If you want to call them cages, call them cages. But if the left wants to call them cages, and the Democrats want to call them cages, then they have to accept the fact that they were built and funded in FY ’15, and I was there," Homan said, according to a transcript."

But Michelle Obama's assertion that the Trump administration tore children from their families and threw them into cages alludes to "a frequent and distorted point made widely by Democrats," according to the AP. The facilities designed during the Obama administration to temporarily hold migrants were used for a similar purpose by President Trump, the AP also concluded.

You obviously know about the vote fraud election steal, but in other comments you still speak as if voting matters. Is something being done to remedy the voter fraud apparatus? Until that is fixed, why does it matter?

I have no doubt that there was rampant, blatant and brazen election fraud. It will take concentrated and determined efforts from all of us to not only prove it but to fight to root it out so that we CAN have confidence in those who are selected to represent us in Washington. I'm not about to let these haters of America win by disillusioning and discouraging us from participating in the process. They would LOVE it if we threw our collective hands in the air and gave up! As long as I have breath, I will not give up on my country.

We must start at the city, county and state levels to support those candidates who are Conservative and who want to defend the Constitution and those rights we have been endowed with my our Creator. We must take over school boards, city councils, mayorships, election boards, state legislatures, etc. in order to effect the kind of changes that must happen. The Liberal Democrats have been quietly doing that for decades and that's how they were able to get away with their schemes. What happened in this past election was CRIMINAL and those who took part in it must be found, prosecuted and punished because we all know if it was Republicans who pulled these kinds of things, they would be screaming for blood. They must not be allowed to get away with it and it all be swept under the rug. That would mean we couldn't have free and fair elections ever again.

We will have to get off our duffs, spend some money and work hard. We can ALL do something. But if we do nothing, then they have succeeded in stealing not just this election but America, herself. I'll not give in or give up. We owe it to those who come after us to fight for our country. The "voter fraud apparatus" will not fix itself. We still have avenues available to address it - we must demand that it is! But it's only the start.
