It started small and grew and grew.
It started with "the only way the Democrats can win the election is if they rig it".
After the Democrats won, the election was called fraudulent. It was rigged, they said. But, the only election they believed was "rigged" was the Presidential election.
Now, that Big Lie has grown into "if the Democrats win any election, it is rigged". According to latest polls out of California, the Republicans are far behind in their recall election and they are refusing to accept the results out of California.
The Republicans have deluded themselves into believing that their Party is so popular that they cannot lose anywhere. "They" cheated Donald Trump out of the Presidency and now they are cheating Elder out of being Governor of California, Republicans now say. They have grown dangerously delusional.
