    In the end, though, Trump actually was the president and we still don't know if the damage he inflicted on America will turn out to be fatal.
    As for Biden, we'll just have to see.

    One phenomenon should be mentioned, however.
    Trumpanzees rarely mingle in civilized society. They live in a bubble.
    So it stands to reason that they believe they're the majority because that's all that they know.,

    What truth? The commission would find there was no fraud. Would you accept that result? Would most of Trump followers accept it? Would Fox News commentators accept it? There is no result from the commission that would result in anyone changing their minds on this because when they find and report the truth that there was no fraud, the idiots would accuse them of hiding the truth.

    The simple and easy truth is that there was no fraud capable of causing Trump to lose. Trump lost because 81 million plus voters voted for other candidates.

    Your statements show you don't give a damn about the actual truth. You have convinced yourself that outlandish fantasies are true and I doubt even medication would bring you back to reality.

    Trump was elected by a large margin of electoral votes. Everyone knew that millions of illegals voted in CA but it didn't make any difference. The 'crats got a lot better at cheating in 2020 and 39% of Americans know that.

    61% of Americans believe the election was free and fair and secure.

    If you want to fight those numbers, and try to disenfranchise 80 million voters, you'll lose.

    BUH-bye.

    39% believe it was fraudulent, therefore won't regret Pedo Joe as legitimate.

    So keep on with you're ad homs as your logical fallacies just only serve to show your ignorance of American history.
    I think it's hilarious how you accuse me of the exact logical fallacies that you committed in the very same post.

    Your complaint was with the States at their State Houses, Congress cant fuck with what the states decide.

    39% of Americans disagree. If The Swamp weren't so afraid of exposing the truth, they would have voted for this type of hearing.

    Stuff gets delayed routinely in the legislative process; that doesn't delegitimize the process.

    Polls showed Biden would get 51.2% of the vote and he got 51.4%. Since we are using polls that means the 39% are wrong and Biden won a majority of popular and electoral votes.

    I agree, but Trump's army still prevented the Congress from doing their Constitutional duty, which requires January 6th. Trumps rioters tried to permanently prevent it from happening, but luckily they failed and only delayed it a few hours.
