There
are people saying that President Donald Trump needs to concede the
election and stop pointing out all the irregularities that occurred on
election night. They maintain that he would be the lead Republican
candidate in 2024 and could run again. There's just one problem with all
of that. It's complete and utter BS. First of all, there are way too
many irregularities to not warrant some serious investigations into what
happened that night. Secondly, don't expect the Republican party to
welcome Trump back as their candidate in 2024.
Democrats
might like the idea of Trump giving up now and coming back later. It
would work to their party's advantage. Consider the possibility that
Trump decides he really wants to run again in four years and the
Republican party blocks him. It's not that far of a stretch to think
that this could happen. There are "Never Trumpers" in the party who
would do what they could to rig the system against him. However, Trump
has enough support that he could run as a third party candidate in 2024.
I don't believe he would win the Republican nomination, but as a third
party candidate he would almost guarantee a Democrat victory.
If
I were to consider the next move for Trump if he ultimately loses or
concedes the election, I would say he'd be better off trying to
establish the Trump News Network. He's been right in the center of the
storm of left-wing media attacks. He understands more than most what
impact the media has had on things. He also understands that it's not
going to get any better if nothing's done about it. Therefore, he could
have more of an impact on politics and the information people get if he
were to jump into the arena by creating a new media alternative. For
that matter, he could play a part in creating alternative social media
options for the people.
All of this is
speculation. The fact is, Trump is fighting for a fair election right
now. Millions and millions of people support him in that effort. The
bottom line is there are way too many irregularities that happened
during this election. There are other things that Trump is privy to
behind the scenes leading up to the election. He needs to fight this all
the way to the Supreme Court, because there are millions of
Americans who don't trust this election. Millions of people won't just accept that Joe
Biden had 11 million more votes than a very popular Barack Obama when he
was elected president in 2008.
Here are some
things to consider. There were more than 20 million people voting in
this presidential election than in 2016. That is a huge increase, and it
happened during a pandemic. I wouldn't say that Joe Biden was largely
unpopular with the people, but there was lukewarm support for him at
best. People will claim that Biden didn't have big support at his
rallies because he didn't encourage that. However, when somebody is
popular, the people will flock to see them. Cars would be lined up
alongside the road with Biden banners waving proudly, even if they
couldn't be at the rally itself. That didn't happen. Trump commanded
huge support everywhere he went.
On election
night, the trends were pointing towards the same type of Trump victory
he achieved in 2016. The media covered things differently this time,
going so far as to not proclaim Trump victories in certain states even
though they knew he had won them. Suddenly, vote counting stopped in
about a half-dozen states, four of which Trump was leading by big
margins. In Pennsylvania, Trump held a 700,000 vote lead over Biden. He
led by about 300,000 votes in Michigan. Vote counting simply stopped
for various reasons, raising suspicions.
In the
middle of the night, both Michigan and Wisconsin shifted in Biden's
favor. People woke up to the news that Biden was leading both states all
of a sudden. Both states were then proclaimed victories for Biden.
Over the next day or two, Pennsylvania flipped, as did Georgia. Here's
where it gets interesting. Up until the big shifts in those four key states, Trump was beating
Biden in each state by around a 52% to 48% margin. After that, Biden was getting
anywhere between 70% and 75% of the remaining votes in all of those states.
Mathematically, that doesn't make a lot of sense, but that's what the
media would have you believe.
There have been
people willing to testify under oath regarding various irregularities in
the way the votes were handled. Pole watchers were not allowed to view
the vote counting. There were enough red flags to cause any rational thinking adult concern. Rather than dive in and ask serious questions,
the media continues to gaslight everybody, telling them that there is no
evidence of any sort of fraud. Social media did its part by either
censoring or suspending people who posted what wasn't approved or
running disclaimers that election fraud has been disputed.
To
be honest with you, I have serious questions about the election. This
feels like the most unfair and possibly even rigged election I've
witnessed in my lifetime. I say that as somebody who isn't a big Trump
or Biden supporter. Trump is the one who actually went through this
ordeal, and he has a Constitutional right to ask questions and take
legal action if need be. There is no four years from now for him. Trump
knows better than to think that a path will be cleared for him to run
again. He knows that he and his family will be under intense attack once
he leaves office. If he doesn't fight this now, not only does he lose,
but the country itself could lose. People will doubt whether we can
trust an election again.
The media as well as
people on social media are painting a picture of Trump ruining our Democracy. We live in a Republic, by the way. There is a difference.
Trump has never said that he won't leave the White House at the
appropriate time. Other formalities, such as the electoral vote, haven't
occurred yet. Right now, the media is the one proclaiming Joe Biden the
winner. It's not even official yet.
What
Trump is doing is no worse than what Al Gore did in 2000. Gore had a
right to fight for his potential victory, and Trump has that same right.
Trump isn't saying he will refuse to leave if Biden is ultimately
declared the official winner. It's the media and left leaning social
media people saying that. Millions of people believe he needs to fight
this with everything he has. Fortunately, that's what Trump is going to
do. He's not damaging anything by fighting as hard as he is.
Unfortunately, the damage was done long ago.
