It has pretty clearly crossed into an illegitimate attempt for Trump to retain power. The greater Republican Party is complicit at this point.
Sorry SD I should have said “the greater Republican Party minus Ben Sasse” after seeing his statement in another thread
We're going to have a large percentage of citizens that don't think Biden is legitimate.

It's funny in execution, deeply disturbing in concept.

That's what kids do. It is not a fundamental assault on childhood like these assholes are trying to pull on democracy.
After seeing the reaction of texags, I'm going to side with kk. It's only the q's left believing this stuff, even the magas are wondering why that press conference was such a shitshow.

Basically like a vaccine.
in the end, EMAW will always win.
For anyone who thinks our struggles with democracy aren't real, I'd recommend reading up on other countries you think the opposite of and asking yourself why our leaders are so different. We have a troubling history of our leaders undermining democratic elections here, as well, some of which is detailed in the book below.https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674064218
