Not happy to see so many people acting like all the "stolen election" stuff is *only* about Trump's ego. That's part of it, as I've said myself, but they don't see any reason not to continue, which means doubling down until they get to the dark place.
They will keep making things up and shoveling it out to their media sycophants in the same cycle of bullshit they've used since it was Breitbart, Russia Today, and Fox News plus the big social media pushes. Then all the denials and debunking spread it further.
They only need a handful of loyalists in the right posts, whether judges or AGs, to give just enough lip service, even take some action, to cause real damage. Fortunes to be made or lost are in play behind the scenes.
Everyone deserves to celebrate, but there is no way Trump and the sort of people he's surrounded himself with his entire life are going to go quietly while still holding the most powerful office in the world. Don't enjoy this squirming. Calls to denounce it are paramount.
Just remember that always, always, with these people, if they don't get their way it's because someone stopped them, not because they decided to do the right thing for once.
As we've learned over the past five years (and past 15 if you're a Russia hand), it's so hard to stop. Just enough traction to be able to say "everyone is talking about it, so there must be SOMETHING to it" and it can spin out of control.
