Holding on to common sense - December 23, 2020

More lies from the incumbent about the election.  Conspiracy theorists that he has encouraged and energized are all around him. Hatred is spewed forth against his long-time allies.   Common sense is out the door.  A call for more relief for people may be appropriate, but one can only look at his motives with suspicion.   This is December, 2020.  How did we get here?  
   Some of us did question his election, but not the voting machines or the voting results. We questioned the pervasive presence of obvious trolls keeping people away from the polls in 2016, with some sources likely foreign.   We questioned the character of this individual, who, now, as the lame duck incumbent, is doing exactly what we expected.  That is why faithless electors in 2016 would have been welcome.  We knew, however, that hope was vain.   
    Now, REPUBLICAN election officials swearing up and down and sideways that there was NO FRAUD is not even good for...Republicans.  The incumbent with an adolescent mindset is leading his followers in mass wishful thinking rather than facing reality.  
   You all can say that those who didn’t support the incumbent were fraudulent because they didn’t vote for the incumbent.   That is what some of you seem to be saying.  If that’s the only reason, then it’s no reason.   It’s a claim of fraud that is a wisp in the wind.  
    And for people to say that the election results must be overturned because, otherwise, there will be widespread violence...well, that’s blackmail.   At the very least.  
    My controlled rant is now over.  
   I will stop typing now, and put forth my silent scream.
