    Pitch for the NYT:

    THIS Week: Top Republicans not sure if they’ll accept election results. And Biden is so old and confused he mispronounced the name of the prime minister of Belarus. Which is worse? We asked ten voters in a diner.

    9/10 agree it’s Biden.

    They can deny them all damn day, but the burden of proof is on their side. They’ve had 4 years and found zero credible evidence of widespread or a conspiracy to fix an election. Literally no evidence.

    If you didn’t have proof when it was happening, it’s time to shut the fuck up.

    If Trump won in 2020, he’s ineligible in 2024. They need to pick a lane.

        Nope. SC ruled that “insurrection” has to be official declaration by congress. Otherwise we’d call everything we didn’t like an insurrection!

        (that sentence is technically true, but my reply here is an “/s” as far as agreeing)

    if you can’t lose by the rules, you can’t win by the rules : you just can’t play.

    I know what my contingency plan is. You should too.

    Edit for clarification: you should devise your own, is what I mean. You should also keep it close to the chest, as it were.
