What, if you can't trust a guy who lied to Congress when selling arms to Iran, just who can you trust, really?

Oh please. The ONLY REASON this insanity even began is because trump the habitual liar & gas lighter cried that the election was fraudulent simply because trump didn’t win & that hurt his feelings. And all the dutiful cultists fell in line with his insanity & continues to push this big lie. Period. The entire world knows trump lost legitimately because trump legitimately sucked that much. If the blowhard didn’t keep pushing this lie, the cultists would’ve moved on. But now, this is the base of their life. They will die & their headstone will simply say “but but but, it’s fraud”! Wow, what a pathetic legacy.

It most certainly is when there is systemic lying about it. Yes, it is.

This could easily have been Venezuela or Turkey, suggesting the election was illegitimate based on a "belief" is dangerous. So where do they go from here, what do these ex-military propose.

The stats don't make any sense whatsoever and do not jive with past elections. Sure, things change over time, but for them to change suddenly in one election cycle, that just seems odd.

You forgot the last column where Trump LOST to Biden's 81+ Million....

The letter looks very much like a right wing political manifesto. I don't disagree with all that they have to say, but inserting statements about the validity of the 2020 vote does raise a large credibility issue. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

More than 120 retired US military leaders have signed an open letter appearing to advance a false conspiracy theory that the 2020 election was rigged and questioning President Joe Biden's mental capacity to serve.

"Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the 'will of the people' our Constitutional Republic is lost," said the letter released Tuesday by "Flag Officers 4 America," and signed by 124 former admirals and generals.

Biden can't read. Perhaps they should have drawn pictures in crayon so he could understand.

Or were they just joining the GOP's new era of McCarthyism and its assault on the truth and those who tell it?
The Left always accuses others of what they themselves are guilty of.
