One issue I wish Joe would have addressed last night

Wish he would have mentioned "The Big Lie" and why it's bullshit. Qrump loyalists in my red town get red in the
face mad when talking about the stolen election. And any day now his "Cyber Ninjas" will announce their "Proof"
how the election was robbed from them. I'm concerned that Qrump will use this anger against us being the
cornered animal he is. MSM could also attack the big lie but probably won't on account of ratings, they need
reasons to keep viewers tuned in.

No one is going to change their minds on this. Certainly not Trumpists, who would never be bothered to take facts and logic into account.

Meanwhile, the President is spending his time "governing" and getting shit done rather than "tweeting".
