Flashback: it’s 2020. Joe Biden has just been declared the winner of the presidential election, with a historically unprecedented 80 million votes. The Trump campaign immediately questions the legitimacy of the election as rampant claims of fraud, sketchy mail-in ballot rules, and ballot harvesting schemes run amok.
The left, pissing themselves in excitement over getting rid of the Orange Man, declare any question as to the legitimacy of the election to be an attack on democracy and a threat to the future of the entire nation.
Fast forward to this past Tuesday, when Donald Trump retook the presidency by not only winning the Electoral College, but the popular vote - including turning out higher-than-expected numbers of Latinos, Blacks, Native Americans, and women. And suddenly, with the flip of a switch we aren’t supposed to notice, leftists are convinced the whole thing was rigged, and should be scrapped as illegitimate.
Amazing to watch, in real time. And yet.
This dude outright said that the election was rigged, that it should be investigated, that the media were a part of it (my personal favorite bit, by the way) and that Kamala shouldn’t concede until the whole thing can be re-counted.
Pam Keith, a lawyer and the CEO of Center for Employment Justice, questioned how 16 million votes - roughly the number of votes Harris lacked versus Biden’s win in 2020 - could have “evaporated,” apparently missing the possibility that some Biden voters went Trump or that some people just…didn’t vote for Kamala.

“This means she should have won. She didn’t lose any group substantially. But somehow 16 million votes evaporated during a higher turn out election,” Keith questioned.
This woman took to TikTok to claim that - stay with me here, this one gets good - Joe Biden should step down, hand over the keys to the Oval Office to Kamala Harris, who should then declare that letting Donald Trump assume the presidency goes against the Constitution, and that she will remain president until another election can be held.

Which, in addition to being so patently absurd that it’s almost painful, is literally the exact opposite of the democratic election process that leftists have spent the last four years screaming in defense of. But now they want to throw their own rulebook out the window because they lost, and suddenly it’s OK to deny elections again, and even refuse to respect the peaceful transfer of power.
Oh, how the turntables.
