To read reports in the mainstream press about the throngs of President Trump’s supporters who rallied in Washington, D.C., over the weekend, you’d think the crowd was made up of a bunch of conspiracy theory-addled rubes and delusional far-right extremists all of them hoodwinked into thinking the election was stolen. To read David Frum’s Twitter take, you’d think they were all Nazis.
The march came on the heels of a poll last week that found a staggering 70 percent of Republicans now say they don’t believe the presidential election was free and fair. That news, like news of the self-described Million MAGA March, was met with a mix of contempt, hysteria, and condescension from Democrats and the media.
Their rough consensus is that GOP voters who still support the president are either treasonous or stupid, reinforced constantly by a brittle insistence that there was “no fraud” in the presidential election. A totemic front-page declaration by the New York Times, “ELECTION OFFICIALS NATIONWIDE FIND NO FRAUD,” has been repeated everywhere, mantra-like. Any claims of voter fraud or ballot-counting irregularities, whether from President Trump or the tens of thousands who marched over the weekend, are “baseless,” “unfounded,” and have “no evidence” behind them.
There’s a palpable nervousness about the media’s insistence that the election was as pure as the driven snow. Maybe they seem so nervous because they know what everyone in America knows: there was nothing pure or secure or even ordinary about the election...

It’s curious that more Republican who had their elections stolen across the country aren’t speaking out.
Again, Joe Biden said, “we have the most extensive voter fraud network ever devised”.
“ELECTION OFFICIALS NATIONWIDE FIND NO FRAUD,”...in their actions.
There’s fraud, it’s just that the Dems and the media are keeping a lid on the details. Hopefully the state legislatures are not cowards.
More and more people are saying “why bother voting” if the entire process is rigged.
I don’t think they’re wrong.

Weird as it may sound, they may not realize that they can. There was a Consent Decree (IIRC, it was implemented during the Reagan years or very shortly thereafter), wherein speaking out about allegations of fraud -- specifically by Republicans -- was forbidden. That Consent Decree was to last for 30 years
Will search it out and post a link.
my apologies for being off topic...is anyone else seeing weird characters throughout the articles now since the FR move ? Here's an example of what I'm seeing:
" are âbaseless,â âunfounded,â and have âno evidenceâ behind them"
” More and more people are saying “why bother voting” if the entire process is rigged.
I don’t think they’re wrong.”
I agree............and let me add .........as for speaking out: - Where’s the sense in speaking out , when no one is listening. Here in AZ I spoke out about the ballot fraud during the midterms,...... what a Friggin joke. The Republicans response was ........Natta, Who Cares? Go Away.
Here's a link to Investment Watch's article re the Consent Decree I mentioned in my earlier post:

Crap. Why am I having such a hard time posting links properly?
If worst comes to worst, you can cut-and-paste the link in a separate window. I do think it does a good job of explaining some of the reasons why Republicans have been so spineless.

The crazy thing is.....that even SOME Republicans are in on this steal. Why? GOK.
” are âbaseless,â âunfounded,â and have âno evidenceâ behind them”
Yes
Republicans tend to be optimists. We simply do not like to believe conspiracy theories.
That being said, it is time we start paying attention: remember all those Republican seats in CA that were suddenly lost in the dead-of-night as the vote-counting continued during 2018?
This is exactly what happened in the 5 cities this year.
The same thing will happen in Atlanta come January 6.
We need to get people to understand this. Dominion Systems is the tool of the coup.
Real time vote theft recorded on TV on election night.
Republicans And **Democrats** Have Good Reason Not To Trust The Election Results.
Many voted for Trump.
