60% of republicans do NOT believe that the election was stolen.. that is hogwash..

They know it was not stolen...but have learned from watching what happened with the babying of Trump, that if they throw irrational tantrums the press and everyone else with either coddle them or give into them for just some peace and quiet.

The greatest mistake anyone ever made on the "great lie", was that notion of giving Trump some time to come to terms with his loss.. Remember that chestnut coming out of the right wing? The guy lost, and instead of telling him to suck it up, like you would with anyone else.. they insisted on babying the whiner.. to the point that he decided he could just keep this up and maybe we would give him the election

True to form, his groupies saw this worked, and that is exactly what they are doing now. They are using this to re-instate Jim Crow.. they know he lost and he lost righteously.. but if they throw fits and storm the capital nothing will happen to them we will just baby them and try and coddle their itty bitty little hurt feelings..

ENOUGH ALL READY..

President Biden is doing the right thing by inviting them to add their voices or offer constructive help.. but if they are going to start throwing fits, just like you would do with a three year old in the grocery store.. you pick them up and you leave.. we do not need to tolerate this aberrant behavior.

Not only is this about voting rights, its also about guns.. infrastructure etc.. they are either a part of the solution or they are dismissed.. simple as that.. Elections have consequences.. and the major consequence of the last election is that it is for adults only..and we are just not going to play these games anymore.

NO. They say this or that garbage. It's not actually possible that most of them believe what they are saying. They are simply liars.

basically said that President Biden is a liar about HR-1 and other matters. It's like clock work with these republicans, they have a single message which is to deny, obstruct, enlist in total propaganda, lie, cheat, steal, lie and obstruct some more, deny and always play victim. The republican party is immoral and their true nature is to wrap themselves with the American flag while carrying a big arse gun. Their patriotism is fake and democracy be damned.
