11. Sad that it will continue to work.

Mainly because it worked very nicely FOR the GOP. So why should they want to rock the boat and do anything that questions the validity or casts doubt upon their “win” last November? That’s all they cared about: that it literally stole the White House for THEIR team.

Now if the Dems had kept the White House, the CONS would be raising holy hell about how horrendous and illegal and not valid the election results were. They’d be climbing all over it, to the exclusion of all else. But since it benefited THEM, they’re gonna drag their feet on any vigorous attempts to get to the bottom of this.

Seriously, NOT ONE of these CONS actually wants to be “investigating” ANY of this. Not a single one. They managed to “win”. So that’s all they care about. And what they really want is for the rest of us, including the news media, to shut up, drop it, and go away.
