63. "We have no evidence . . .
Thu Nov 21, 2024, 06:39 PM
Nov 21

We have no evidence that the outcomes of the elections in those
states were actually compromised as a result of the security breaches, and we are
not suggesting that they were." That is what your letter authors say.

Instead, he insists that recounts should be commonplace. Well then, he needs to lobby for laws in those states to hand recount every election. He can then explain to the legislatures and people how money should come from basic programs to pay for his notions. He doesn't offer to cover the hundreds of millions, perhaps more, that a recount would cost. I suspect he and you want the Harris campaign to fleece the American people out of such funds to pay for the fact some of you can't cope with reality.

That Trump gained ground in over 90% of the counties in America, even deep blue ones, should tell you something. That the results were consistent with the exit polls should tell you something. That the results were close to the preelection polls and conformed to the projections of the poll aggregators should tell you something. But you don't want to learn. You don't want to cope with the results of a horrifying election. Instead, you want the rest of us to indulge you. Harris, Walz, the DNC nor I will be doing such a thing. Carry on, keep pressing salt into the wound, and see how much that makes you and everyone else feel better.

I used to be furious when at these posts because they simply seek to prolong everyone's agony--all because a few people can't move on past denial through the ordinary stages of grief. Now I just feel sorry for you. I will also evaluate your future posts accordingly, given what I have learned about your lack of concern for evidence.
