So if Republicans were to in fact win Congress in Nov, would it be absurd to question THEIR victory?

They spent all that time claiming the 2020 election was stolen... in fact, they're STILL claiming just that.

They spent all that time attacking the contest, the process, saying it was rigged.

Other than "who won" and changing the maps in their favor changing, what else changed?

All those times they said "Wait and see in two weeks"? Didn't materialize.

QAnon and the storm? Didn't happen.

All those firefights in Germany between US soldiers and Dominion voting systems and Antifa supersoldiers? Someone was trolling with that, right?

The Kraken? Ha.

Is Hillary still free and are Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, and Steve Bannon still criminals? Yes?

Has the "deep state" they ranted about been exposed and summarily executed yet? No?

So then how do we know the "Deep State" doesn't want a Republican victory? We don't, right?

So all the time, energy, effort, and embarrassment to our country that Republicans caused when they made such an effort to question, overturn, decertify, etc. Joe Biden's victory shouldn't just disappear into thin air if they were to win Congress in November. It SHOULD come back to haunt them. I think that's fair, don't you?

for an audit of the Texas primary. Why not, something needs fixing if approx. 40% of the absentee ballots are invalidated.

If they were to win, then they’re going to claim they have a mandate even though they spent so much work tilting the process to their favor.

If they’ve attacked the process and the competition, then they should not go unchallenged and unquestioned when they win.

All I’m saying is we turn it back on them… if Republicans were to win in 2022, we’d be fools if we weren’t reflecting this nonsense back on them. Playing messages like these… “how do you know you won, huh? How do you know you have a mandate?”
