Dear MAGAs,
MAGA world is ringing with lamentations about how Dark Biden hurt your feelings. He called you out for the violent attack on Congress, fo ryour willful refusal to accept election results, for the on-going harassment of election boards, and for your decision to give loyalty to a man, rather than to America and the rule of law.
You deserve every word he said. You made yourselves party to the worst attack on representative government since the Civil War. You tried to overturn an election.
MAGA folks, like most people, are decent people with decent values and ethics within the context of their daily lives: loving family members, good neighbors and friends, good employees. However, in terms of your political lives, none of those positive values are present.
You tried to disenfranchise the rest of us by negating our votes. You justified that by disrespecting election officials and slandering them with nonsense “evidence” like: Dead people voting! People voting twice! Chinese bamboo ballots! People are voting by using PO addresses in multiple states! The Chinese are controlling the computers! Etc. Didn't it ever occur to you that election officials might be decent, competent people who can catch that kind of clumsy, obvious maleficence? None of the “evidence” trumpeted in rightwing media resulted in a prosecution because none of it was remotely possible without getting caught. People can't just walk into a polling place and dump a bunch of ballots to be counted. No, thousands of illegals are not registered to vote. No, you can't stuff a drop-in ballot box with fake ballots. Why didn't it occur to you that maybe you should learn something about how elections are run before jumping to the conclusion that margins of over twenty thousand votes could be achieved by those kinds of ridiculous tactics?
Why did you believe that crap?
Trump had no chance of winning because he went into the election year with a fifty-five percent disapproval rating. He lost swing states by margins uphill from twenty thousand votes. The race wasn't even close. Also:
-
He also lost all sixty-two of his lawsuits spread across six states.
-
Every challenged state had official recounts, and some had more than one.
-
The Pennsylvania Republicans had hearings which turned up nothing but a bunch of flakes saying things like “How can you tell if an Asian has voted more than once when they all look alike?”
-
Trump supporters in Nevada hired a professional to do a forensic analysis of their election and the only fraud he found was a group of Tea Party Republicans in Reno who tried to vote both by mail and in person.
-
Arizona Republicans hired a firm to do an audit and they found nothing actionable.
-
The governor of Texas offered a substantial reward for evidence leading to a conviction and the only evidence he got was a PA Republican who got caught voting on his dead mother's ballot.
-
Another group of Trump supporters hired an investigator to find fraud, but the investigator found nothing, and the effort disintegrated into a welter of lawsuits by donors against the leaders of the group.
-
Individual election officials accused by Trump or others have successfully sued the MAGA accusers for making false claims.
-
Faux and Newsmax are facing lawsuits for the lies they spread about a computer company.
Bottom line: Trump lost six swing states by more than twenty thousand votes per state and Trump supporters have not found any cases of election or voter fraud beyond the actions of an individual here and there.
He lost. Please try to handle that reality with the same dignity and decency shown by voters in our previous 200 years of elections.
Here's the problem: People who give their loyalty to a Dear Leader will refuse all information that contradicts what they want to believe. Polling shows that seventy percent of Republican voters are still pushing the Big Lie. Election officials nationwide have been subjected to harassment and intimidation in order to force them out of their jobs so that Trump loyalists can politicize the election process. Right here in Mason County a man who has no qualifications at all is running for auditor based on false claims about our election process which he got from something he read on the Internet.
That's why Biden called you out. You have it coming. You tried to disenfranchise your fellow citizens and overthrow our election because you believed stupid stuff. Your behavior has been disrespectful of the law, of other Americans, and is a threat to our nation's elections which are the foundation of our freedom.
You betrayed the decent values that you show in other aspects of your life. You betrayed your decent values on behalf of a self-proclaimed p---y-grabbing, three-time adulterer with two fraud convictions and a history of bankruptcies, who routinely stiffed his creditors, who used your campaign donations to pay off a porn star, who buried his first wife in a golf course to collect a 150,000 fee and a tax write-off, who laundered bribes through the Trump Tower, who deserved his two impeachments, and who topped his career off by stealing top secret documents. Yeah, that guy. The one who incited an attack on Congress but didn't give one nickel of support to help his loyal devotees with their legal bills when they got themselves in trouble on his behalf.
So...Biden hurt your feelings by calling you out. I am sorry when anyone's feelings are hurt, but frankly I think the integrity of our elections is more important than the injured feelings of people who made the mistake of believing slanderous BS about election officials and other voters. You are not the victims. We are. If you don't like being called out for your attacks on our elections, then stop making those attacks.
The rest of us will be grateful and forgiving. Truly, we will. Rejoin America, quit the cult, restore your decent values to the way you participate in politics. Please. You will be happier and so will the rest of us.
