Today, the crime of sedition continues. Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley and others will continue to provoke their supporters into believing that the last election was stolen from them. In the face of all evidence, they will continue to attack our electoral system and tear down our democracy. What's next? Will they ask for the military to turn against their country and overthrow the present President, Joe Biden?
It is a continuing crime. They are more than sore losers. They are criminals.

(14,303 posts)As Attorney General Eric Holder cautioned (the quote from abolutionist Reverend Parker) The arc of the moral universe bends toward justice, but it only bends toward justice because people pull it towards justice. It doesnt happen on its own.
We've had four years of Trump, et al bending it into a pretzel.

(23,729 posts)Or, as I like to call them, "career competent, capable, dedicated employees", who can keep things running according to long-established norms and practices.
But, I don't think it's a crime to claim an election was stolen. It's just moronic.
