15. What I've always wondered...

I do feel that republicans had set things in motion to skew the election for TFG. Informing him that 'the fix' is in and he will be able to claim a mandate by receiving the most votes ever in a presidential election. What they didn't count on was the will of decent American citizens (which the vast majority are) that wanted nothing to do with another presidential term for TFG. They (myself and I'm quite sure all of you here) risked the ongoing Covid-19 dangers and flocked to the polls in record numbers. Republicans thought that Democratic and independent voters wouldn't take the risk and they would roll to victory. We proved their strategy wrong and I'll never believe TFG actually received 74 million votes.

As for other wonderings, just what is it that the proud boys are actually proud of? Breaking stuff? Being rude?

The Oath (Oaf) Keepers? WTF are they really about? Oath to what or whom?

There are others, too but, it seems to me they only want to destroy and tear down. None of them has ever stated what they plan for the aftermath. Which proves to me (well, from my perspective, of course) that they only exist to perpetrate chaos and fear. When republicans complain about some liberal group stirring up trouble and they're all funded by George Soros, they are projecting. Who pays for the proud boys and the oath (once again, oaf) keepers? Maybe those people are the ones that need to testify.
