Now, I understand that is an EXTREMELY low bar. If you lose then you really don't have a choice, so it's kind of silly to give someone credit for doing something when they had no other choice other than to do what they did. But, for what it's worth, no Democrat candidate or officer tried to actually defy the results of the elections.

This..in spades

The rules on the debates are going to change. And, quite frankly, they need to...

The first debate really was a bad look for our country. I don't know if it was anything more than that, but it was at least that. I'm now starting to wonder if we should even have debates. Candidates are judged entirely for their charisma and practically not at all for their expertise. The fact of the matter is that experts aren't always charismatic, and vice versa, so maybe we shouldn't even have the debates at all if this is what we're going to get.

You know, it really is a valid question. Where is the river? Even people who are voting for Trump know that he’s a pathological liar, right?

Oh agree, I think trump lies but I also think most politicians lie their asses off. Can you imagine how many times Biden has lied over his political career?! 47 years is a long time to be a politician.

There's an old adage about politicians, " If their lips are moving, they're lying"

CNN might as well be on Biden's payroll. They're not even trying to be honest in their reporting and "fact checking".

CNN Lies in Fact Check About Biden Calling Trump’s China Ban ‘Xenophobic’

After a quick search, I found the former candidate, a former President, and the late civil rights icon call Trump’s election illegitimate.

Unfortunately, part of the political premise of the Trump/Russia investigation was to delegitimize the election and not accept the results. Sure did work because there are Democrats and people on this board who still think he personally colluded with the Russians which caused Hillary the election. Hence - illegitimate.
