Lordy, it’s going to be hard to be gracious in victory and not return spite for spite, but I’ll try.<\/p>\n

I woke up yesterday \u2014 Friday, three days after the election \u2014 thinking if the press would just get off its ass and call a Biden win, the logjam would break. Today, Saturday morning, they did just that, and within the hour Pennsylvania made it official, pushing Biden past the 270-vote Electoral College threshold. Later in the day, as world leaders began to acknowledge and congratulate the new president-elect, Biden’s win became all the more a done deal, Trump’s dream of overturning it all the more a fantasy.<\/p>\n

We watched the news off and on throughout the day and stayed up for Kamala and Joe’s victory speeches. This morning I took a deep breath and waded into the acidic waters of commentary from Trump country.<\/p>\n

The World has witnessed fraud from Hell. America set up to sell. Now watch POTUS expose their crimes.. as States clawed back one at a time.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned grasshoppers. It’s not over til the Fed lady sings.. The ccp’s MSM “call” is just another MSM lie, no more accurate than their polls. (GreatAwakening)<\/p>\n

PROOF OF FRAUD? Republicans Won 28 of 29 Most Competitive House Seats, Added 3 State Legislatures, Did Not Lose a Single House Race – But Joe Biden Won!!?!<\/p>\n

THE OBSERVERS WERE NOT ALLOWED INTO THE COUNTING ROOMS. I WON THE ELECTION, GOT 71,000,000 LEGAL VOTES. BAD THINGS HAPPENED WHICH OUR OBSERVERS WERE NOT ALLOWED TO SEE. NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. MILLIONS OF MAIL-IN BALLOTS WERE SENT TO PEOPLE WHO NEVER ASKED FOR THEM!<\/p>\n

That last one, as you probably realize, was from Donald Trump himself. And then there was this, from a friend of a friend on Facebook:<\/p>\n

Trump was duly elected, with no real controversy, unlike what we\u2019re seeing right now.<\/p>\n

Are we talking about the same two elections? The last thing half the country would ever call Donald Trump is a duly-elected president! He was installed by the Electoral College against the wishes of the majority, who elected Hillary Clinton by a three million-vote margin. Joe Biden, on the other hand, has won both the electoral and popular vote, and if that’s not duly elected I don’t know what is.<\/p>\n

Not only has 2020 marked a return to the way presidents should be duly elected, with firm popular and electoral vote wins, it differs from 2016 in another significant way:<\/p>\n

Jubilation. Dancing in the streets. How much of that did we see in 2016? Or 2000, for that matter, when the Supreme Court stole the presidency from Al Gore?<\/p>\n

Cheer up, Republicans. There are going to be dogs in the White House again!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
