@Brandon9000,
1. The claims of widespread fraud are ridiculous. Sure, I want a judge to look at the claims to see if evidence warrants further action.
And that is exactly what they have done.
2. Trump has arrived at
cult status. I suspect that 30% of Republicans are true believers, and the other 40% are just following along. I have no way to confirm this, just a hope that Republicans have common sense.
3. You can find "evidence" to support any crazy theory if you are willing to ignore the evidence against it. There are a number of Republicans who believe the Democrats are controlled by Lizard people.
4. If a large number of Republicans have latched on to a crazy belief system, it is
not my responsibility to fix them.
5. When my political side has crazy beliefs (and sometimes they do) I have no problem confronting them. The lack of Republicans who are standing up to the Trump cult is a little surprising.
6. Politicians like Ted Cruz are playing you. Cruz understands fully well there was no widespread fraud, and he also knows fully well that Biden will be the next president (unless it is Harris).
7. Cruz and his friends also know the Trump cult is profitable. Getting you all riled up ensures they have an angry base to use to increase their own power. They are raising tens of millions of dollars from you people. This is fine with me because it means less money for Republicanvaises that actually have a chance.
8. What Trump is doing will ultimately be bad for the Republican party. I should be happy about this. But what Trump is doing is also bad for the nation at large. You have turned Trump into a messiah figure, and yet you don't hold him accountable for his own behavior.
The Trump cult paints him as both a powerful savior and a helpless victim. It is a strange belief system.
