In that case, not just some, but include me on that.

I truly believe a large number of illegal aliens voted in California and Nevada.

And the number of votes versus voters in Detroit was very much out of skew.

So, I expect to see investigations of that, and corrections to the various voting laws to be accomplished.

I also expect voter ID laws to be implemented and not struck down on the ridiculous idea that such laws are discriminatory. Simple logic tells us that if you need to show an ID to cash a check, get a drivers license, fly on an airplane, etc., that also adding to vote wouldn’t be any further discriminatory than all the other requirements...

HOWEVER, and saying all of that, what is wrong is asking for recounts where no fraud or concerns have been raised, or claiming that a foreign government, by revealing REAL things said in a political organization’s correspondence is equivalent to causing a person to vote a certain way—other than the ACTUAL things said, is crazy/stupid.

So except for all that, I agree with you.

So when one side says without proof and based on suspicion alone that the election was illegitimate that’s smart and when another side says without proof and based on suspicion alone that the election was illegitimate that’s evil.

Basically what the far right and far left have in common is exactly that: “I’m right, you’re evil.” That is the parallelism that means that each side feels justifies being entitled to entirely different sets of stylized “facts” than the other side’s and anything that conflicts with a simplistic narrative of one side good, other side evil is proof that the institution purveying even a slightly more nuanced view is ipso facto on the “other” side.
