@JoeBiden Is Illegitimate If He Manages To Be Inaugurated

“Yes, it is factually true that Biden’s margins of victory in select states are larger than Trump’s in 2016. There is one gigantic difference.

In 2020, we saw a far larger than normal use of vote by mail ballots that routinely have healthy rejection rates, whereas mystery of mysteries, the rejection rates in these contested states are below 1%.

Properly vetting the mail in votes, which skew heavily in Biden’s favor, should make Biden’s leads evaporate. It is a truth that their flippant dismissal cannot answer. This does point to a bigger problem for the left. They have no story.

Right now they point to media pronouncements of Biden is the winner and denying any idea of fraud or errors, while simultaneously skipping around their own nervousness and shutting their eyes and ears to affidavits, found thumb drives, recount disparities and whatnot.

It is over! Concede!

The right can claim suspicion of fraud and point to an accumulating pile of evidence. Mainstream outlets can avoid this with a blackout, but we now occupy separate Overton windows.

Half the nation will see this evidence, and denying it exists only erodes the last scraps of credibility in the mainstream outlets with that half, killing whatever legitimacy they had left.

This does not help the interests, deep state and corporate, that would install Biden. Before we get to Biden, let‘s tackle Trump’s legitimacy. Trump has never been considered a legitimate president by the left half of our nation since the 2016 election.

Forget Russia. The fever dreams of Russian interference do not matter here. I am not talking about the process nor the Russian collusion wild goose chase. Trump’s actions have been in line with the rational-legal idea of legitimacy.

The economy prospered, there were no new wars, and immigration procedures were followed better to protect the public interest. That does not matter one bit because Trump has zero moral legitimacy in the eyes of the left.

.@realDonaldTrump’s heresies against the speech codes, decorum, the open borders mantra, unrestrained globalism and World Police actions make him illegitimate. Trump’s governance is a slightly different flavor of ice cream but still ice cream, yet this is not good enough.

From here on out, any non-progressive leader will be considered illegitimate for these same reasons. The left are deontologists and their guiding rules are Current Year beliefs. It does not matter the outcomes, Trump’s reasoning and rationale are wrong.

Consider the silly accusations of Trump being racist without any real meat to back them up. The accusation should be reworded to heretic. If Trump can pull it out, he will have no legitimacy with that crowd, but that was already the case.

Biden’s legitimacy issue is worse because it‘s not a moral legitimacy issue but the manipulation of the process to install him. For all the talk of a color revolution, Biden and the deep state are the corrupt figurehead and rickety regime winning via dirty tricks against Trump.

Trump is the charismatic leader representing the peasants that lack institutional control. Biden’s elevation will satisfy the ‘love trumps hate’ crowd, and he will enjoy moral legitimacy as a proper steward of the progressive way.

But a Biden victory will be viewed as illegitimate by the right and even a portion of the apolitical center. Add the details of Biden family corruption with foreign interests...and it quickly becomes a foreign installation of a puppet to roll back aggressive trade policies...

The appeals to norms, process and legislative authority are meaningless in a stolen election environment, especially a society where racial lockstep voting makes persuasion a dead avenue.

Norms are dead as every norm has been broken to install a puppet to rid the nation of the evil, orange ogre from Queens. The flyover right wing voter was one of the least cynical people in America.

This November shatters that belief that still inspires them to wave the flag, enlist in the military and trust in the electoral system.

The left cannot have a coherent story. They are led by a figurehead who is a mentally deteriorating old man who counters everything they have pushed as morally their side since the Obama 2008 victory.

Bernie’s victory, even Bloomberg’s victory, would have allowed for a more coherent story. Bernie representing the win of the left wing or Bloomberg representing the win of the ascendant upper middle and upper class, urbanite victors of neoliberal policies.

Biden is an atrocious Trojan Horse that muddles their story. Any self-righteous love trumps hate monologue should be answered with hearty laughter.

What story would the right have? A Trump win gives them their tribune. A Trump loss gives them their martyr. The cheated champion of the people is a strong story.

If the regime goes after him as he leaves office, all persecution only adds to his martyrdom. The martyr and the steal are strong fuel for a body of people who know the system cannot continue as is. Some arrangements will need to be reconfigured.

Where and how this happens is unknown, but what is known is the story to justify them. This is a corrupt, ossified system using every tool in the shed... to deny half the nation from any say in its destiny.“
