Reaping What You Sow

For the last 4 years, the Democrats and the Mainstream Media have delighted in referring to President Trump as an “Illegitimate” president. Despite a total lack of evidence (which even Special Counsel Mueller and 40 million wasted tax dollars couldn’t uncover), we were supposed to believe that the Russians had somehow conspired with Donald Trump to steal the election from Hillary Clinton. Congressman Adam Schiff swore he had solid evidence to prove it!

Now that we have an election tainted by accusations of fraud on a massive scale, I’m glad we have the proper terminology in place. More than a week later and a majority of Americans do not believe that the election was fair. Only 39% believe that the election was “definitely free and fair.” Another 21% agreed that it was “probably” free and fair, although among Republicans more than 70% did not believe the election was fair and free. https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/politics-government/election/article247121139.html

Honestly, I don’t know if the number of fraudulent ballots in crucial states would be enough to sway the final outcome or not. But there is no doubt whatsoever (in my mind) that the election was far from fair and honest. There are just too many allegations of fraud to ignore, including:

·         Dead people voting

·         Voting machine software that “glitched” (and changed votes from Trump to Biden)

·         Unverified ballots counted (largely mail-in votes)

·         Poll watchers denied access to polling stations (during voting and counting of votes)

·         Postal workers instructed to change dates/timestamps on ballots

·         Poll workers wearing Biden/Harris hats, shirts, facemasks, etc.

·         Poll workers providing instructions on how to vote (with written cheat sheets)

Deny all you want, but if any of these things happened, they should be investigated.

So does that make Joe Biden an “illegitimate” President? If the American people do not believe that he won the election fairly, then he will always be considered as such. And we can blame it on the Democrats (and the media) themselves. By refusing to acknowledge any possible fraud, by fighting so hard to prevent any investigations, and by contesting audits and recounts in states that still have questions, they have made it clear that winning is more important than assuring the American public that the election was fair and honest.

In the best interest of their own candidate (and the country), they should be supporting any and all efforts to verify the results and “legitimize” the winner. Then, maybe they wouldn’t have to explain Biden’s newest label, the one they invented, an “Illegitimate President.”
