I went to bed after watching a clean undeniable electoral win. I woke up to “Biden is ‘President Elect’. Fuck you.” I didn’t deserve such mistreatment. None of us did.
I’m not sure why I was surprised. I’ve been lied to, shouted at, mistreated, insulted, gaslit, and propagandized so much I’m not sure the media even knows truth exists; much less how to tell it. Yet, I marvel at the sheer scale of it all. Small cheats in Democratic cities are a sad but accepted part of political life but this wasn’t a small cheat. It was massive!
Biden didn’t just win with a series of spectacular statically anomalies. Biden supposedly got more votes than any presidential candidate in American history. Really? Pull the other one, it’s got bells on it.
Immediately after the election, I saw the following graph. If you’re looking for a fight, it’s graphs like this that start ’em. Also, if someone’s going to lie to me, I expect them to do a better job than that!
Who’s buying the shit? Nobody! Even Biden fans knew it was fishy. They were uneasy and quiet. After four years screaming at the sky, Democrats who won fair and square would be cavorting in the streets like ecstatic winners. Instead, they were subdued. There was no fireworks, no Champaign, no confetti, no parades, no hooting hollering happy winners. They just hunkered down. That’s a “tell”. They knew. We all did.
Within a few hours I saw this meme. The lie was too huge. It wouldn’t hold.
The ensuing wait was the worst! A whole month knowing this would get resolved above my pay grade… or wouldn’t get resolved at all. A month wondering if I my vote counted or if I’d just been mugged.
Fortunately, mass awareness followed a fairly predictable curve.
- The election was flawless and fair. – Suck it up deplorable.
- There was a little fraud but that’s to be expected. – Biden is picking his cabinet.
- There was no widespread fraud. – Here’s an article about global warming.
- There is no evidence of widespread fraud. – COVID rules for Thanksgiving!
- There is evidence of substantial fraud but it’s too late. – COVID ruins Christmas!
- We’re going to stop all media that discusses evidence of election fraud. – Puppies!
What comes next? The denouement. It is/has/and always was scheduled to come next. The falsehood wasn’t successfully forced on a subservient people; therefore it will fail.
The tragedy is that it wasn’t necessary. There are a thousand off ramps on the highway to hell. The wisest move for the cheaters was to fold.
There’s a time and a place to say “this isn’t working”. The weeks after the coup was the time. In nine foot tall neon letters, the universe screamed “resolve this while it can still be construed as a clerical error or minor issues”. It would have been easy; “OK fine, we’ll do a transparent, honest, recount and you’ll see.” Followed by “whoops, who knew? Oh well, your guy won and I can claim I made an honest mistake.”
There was an out. Everyone involved had a chance to come clean. They didn’t.
Already, close to half the populace has turned. In less three weeks, the fact that the election was fixed went from heresy to common sense. Unavoidably, reason overcame the human desire to avoid a fight.
All Americans had to go through the thought process. Now they’re working through the ramifications. It’s no longer about Trump. If an election like 2020 can be cheated out of existence, every election can be cheated out of existence.
That’s the rub. This isn’t one election; it’s all elections.
It’s a big pill to swallow. Nobody likes it. But 2020’s fraud was substantial, intentional, targeted, sufficient to sway the election, there is evidence to prove it, and the people who cheated are not going to do the right thing.
Now what? It starts, as it always does, with preliminary legal wrangling. Sidney Powell’s stuff looks like a James Bond novel. The math nerds already know what happened and they’re trying to explain it to people who can’t define “standard deviation”. Testimony and whistle blowers are coming out of the woodwork. Whenever evidence has been obfuscated, it just makes the coup leaders look worse. Meanwhile, more evidence is discovered. Evidence is found faster than it can be memory holed. Future historians will write books about it. Statistics graduate students will use 2020 data as learning exercises. It wasn’t subtle and it can’t be explained away.
We’re learning new words. Until 2020 I’d never heard the word “spoliation”. The difference between “sedition” and “treason” now matters. Nobody likes the word coup… but it’s used in its proper form:
coups d’état (ko͞o′) or coup d’états (dā-täz′)
“The sudden overthrow of a government by a usually small group of persons in or previously in positions of authority.”
Go ahead. Say it. Say “coups d’etat“. Say “sedition“. Say “treason“. Those words exist because those things exist. They’re happening right now.
The sole defense has not been “we can prove it was an honest election”. It has been “it’s too late to make change the theft”. That’s a thin thread. One does not submit to a coup because there’s a date on the calendar.
Given the gravity of the situation, everyone wondered how the Supreme Court would get involved. Notice what I said. Nobody wondered if the Supreme Court would get involved. We only wondered how and when. For the last several weeks, options and remedies that didn’t involve the Supreme Court were rejected one at a time. Therefore, it had to happen.
Monday, Texas stepped up. BOOM! Direct hit!
I read most of Texas’ argument. It’s dense legalese but it sounds narrow, targeted, based on publicly known facts, and calls directly and precisely to the Constitution. It requests remedies that were written into the Constitution for precisely this purpose. To my untrained eye, it looks a kill shot. Roberts is going to have to work very hard to “penumbra” his way out of this one.
The Texas gambit is doing precisely what was intended. As I type this, just shy of 20 states legally sided with Texas. A roughly equal number oppose Texas. From there it gets messier. Many members of the Pennsylvania legislature are on the Texas side. Same with players in Michigan. A few state Attorney’s General have joined Texas. In DC, the House of Representatives has about a hundred on the side of Texas and many Senators too. The Supreme Court cannot hide under their robes.
Remember, this was caused. It didn’t have to happen. The four states in the crosshairs had a chance to play fair. Even after they cheated they had a chance for transparent & fair recounts. The State Legislatures have plenary powers and in the case of PA there were clear instructions from Justice Alito. Cheaters doubling down made this monster. The fuckers started the problem and they’ll have to deal with what they have wrought.
The good new is this; Trump has already won.
“Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.”

Regardless of the legal wrangling, everyone knows Biden’s “record setting” vote was fake. It’s tainted. It’s ugly and dishonest and his party created the mess. They cheated so hard they’re nearly destroying the playing field. That’s a next level fuck up! Democrats pissed off 70 million Republicans and put another 70 million Democrats in the horrible spot of knowing they voted for a cheater.
Everything Biden does from now on… even if he’s sworn in… will be about cheating. He slithered all the way from plagiarism in 1988 to election fraud in 2020. He just wasn’t good enough to win the presidency fair and square. The mess created to drag Biden’s loser ass across the finish line is his to bear. November 3rd was the last time anyone will take him seriously. Biden wasn’t good enough to win. End of story. Everyone knows it.
Notice who didn’t cheat? Trump! He won a landslide. He did it old school, by campaigning his ass off. Biden hid in a basement while his party cheated. Spontaneous, joyous, parades appeared wherever Trump went.
Nobody anywhere is accusing Trump of cheating.
Nobody believes anything Biden says.
Trump has already won.
If Biden swears in next January, Democrats will not party in the streets. His supporters will not bask in the glorious triumph of an honest win. 70 million plus Republicans will be pissed off because they were fucked by the Democrats. People who know they were screwed do not forget. They act accordingly. Even Biden fans will have regret. They’ll know they’re cheaters. They’ll know they voted for a lying scumbag. What does that do to you? They’ll find out.
Trumps defense against Biden’s cheat has already done its job. Everyone will watch every future election like a hawk. Taping up windows and ejecting observers and driving trucks full of ballots around at night will have a different outcome. Every potential ballot stuffer will have wolves circling. Every voter, on both sides, will stalk warily. It’s hard to fuck over a hundred million skeptics.
There will be no repeat of 2020 and that’s a big deal! Trump has already shown us that Biden cheated; big and ugly. You know, I know, your neighbor knows, your dog knows. Everyone on both sides know. All that remains is the resolution; clean up the system or sink the ship. Good luck to the Supreme Court! If they pussy out they might as well move into Biden’s basement with him.
My compliments to Trump for a fine campaign. He ran up the score like a champ! That made cheat unavoidably obvious. He made the coup summon the greatest number of fake Democratic votes to ever exist. Since then, Trump’s been mounting an excellent defense. It’s clear to everyone that Trump had contingency plans for his contingency plans.
Also, well done to Texas for stepping up first. The other 49 states had the chance. They wimped out. Texas has a unique right to stand tall!
Over time, this is for the best. Americans don’t like being fucked over. This will make it harder in the future. Ideally, future elections will be better because this vote was wrecked.
On the Biden side, all that will be left are a few lonely “fraud deniers”. I’m not the first to notice this:
This narrative is coming apart and it will only escalate, move quickly, get more colorful, people will turn.
Who then will be the 2020 election fraud deniers?
Cleaning up this and all future elections is bigger and better than anything I expected from Trump. Dude’s got giant clanging brass balls and he successfully mustered a solid army of legal support.
When Texas stepped into the ring, Christmas came early.
