    RE- RE-RE count

    How about this for a scenario . Trump is successful with his law suits and several of the vote totals are declared invalid. Recounts indicate that Trump is the actual winner .

    How do the news [ ? ] outlets spin that AND what will the outrage of the biden voters look like ?

    Will there even be a route to governance for Trump without massive protests across the Country ? Is the prospect of a declaration of martial law out of the question . I realize that is WILD speculation but , it could happen .

    IV, with the counting all but done and the reporting all but done and not a single meaningful case of voter fraud brought forward---I think that is a needless worry.

    If there is any surprise in this election for me, it is the fact that trump got as many votes as he did and that the Congress did not experience any major shift. I was concerned, with a Democratic landslide and a fully aligned Congress.

    I can't remember a recount changing anything except in local elections with a very small number of voters.

    Face it, IV, we lost. Time to move on.

    Just ask for the money to do a re-count up front from the broke organization.

    I sincerely hope that as time passes more and more think they won.

    It occurred to me yesterday that a very large portion of my life has been dedicated to bringing about change--and obviously I see change as a positive thing. In the case of the change of who were are as country I see that entirely differently. Not all change is good and I pray we can return to our former state of normalcy in those things of character that define us.

    You will never convince me that having Harris a heart beat away from the presidency is a win.

    I believe I will accept the saying of the dems leading proponents , hillary and stacy adams . to paraphrase , never accept the result of the election .

    I will wait until the courts have decided and recounts complete. Then and only then will I accept the outcome. At which time I will , to the best of my ability support the President even tho I STRONGLY disagree with him as a person and as a leader.

    I don't know enough about her to have a position---but I am hopeful that both of use, in the end, are pleased.
