Election Challenges, Protests, Conspiracy Theories, and Moral Panics

[GMDino]

I'm old enough to remember when the right was fighting tooth and nail for the electoral college because "the state's elect the President" and some of us were like "No, it's a national election so we should just count all votes"?

Remember?

Anyway....in a non-surprising turn of events the GOP doesn't care about "state's rights" when they need to nationalize something to cheat and give them power.

Who could have imagined.

Fascinating to see when “states rights” Republicans suddenly want to impose national control over things. @JasonZacharyTN, care to explain how this tracks with your *ideology*? If California sued Tennessee over our elections, you’d be cool with that in theory? https://t.co/vX2xhneTdi

I mean they fought so hard to "prove" that Trump was legit despite losing the popular vote and now they are fighting to prove he is legit despite losing everything.

It's a cult.  And these fools will be with us for too long.  Defended by other fools who insist that they alone are not in the cult while completely being in the cult.
