Wake up, America!

Americans need to understand, this is not about Democrats or Republicans.

This is about America. This is about your country. This is about your democracy.

Americans need to understand that an election was held and the votes were fairly and honestly counted.

Simply saying that an election was stolen or "rigged" does not make it so. It is highly irresponsible, to say the least, to promote such ideas.

The election was challenged with the Governors and Secretarys of State in several states. There were recounts and recounts and another recount. Each time the votes were certified.

The state electors certified the elections in their states. Trump and his regime took it to the courts. They went before 60 judges and they all ruled against Trump and his regime. They rallied 17 State Attorney Generals to take the case before the Supreme Court of this land. And the Supreme Court ruled against them.

What more can be said?

Open your eyes, America.

the Democratic mindset supports Democracy and the Constitution while the reTHUG mindset is
"Screw you as long as I get mine" so it's important for we Democrats to see that the reTHUGS get
not what they want but what they deserve.

their strong devotion to him and they never will. Their reasons are as varied as one can imagine. He is seen as a harbinger of truth. Period.

Insanity has its own logic. If we are fortunate, it is one that we are unlikely to ever know.
