Franklins comments may lack some fire, but at least he has the courage to call the election a fraud, seeing as how many religious leaders are afraid to do the same.

When I am presented with opposing points of view each having convincing argument I would indeed ‘tend’, be swayed, to believe the argument that is most probable... and not necessarily the most compelling.

But when I am presented with a REAL outcome/result of a contest without knowing all the processes/actions that had influenced and led up to the outcome... but now having to hear argument BETWEEN opposing sides instead of between opposing views...

then I would not use ‘tend’ in my expressed belief. I would instead make a more fitting(sapient) expression of belief drawn from that which is most compelling AND most probable.

“I TRULY believe the election was stolen!”

In others words... Rev Graham punted.

I wouldn’t take that way .
He is a southerner and they tend to say tend a lot when they are talking just like this .
