The GOP reaction

To me, President Trump is a narcissist. He needs to be in the news, and I think he feeds off that news, no matter if it is good or bad. Now, he is not at the top of the news, so he hast to do something to keep his name out there.
But I do agree with the comment above. I do not think there will be an unpeaceable transfer. In January, it may not be smooth, but President Trump will leave the White House, and President elect Biden will come into the White House.

“This is the way Trump ends, not with a bang, but a whimper”.
That’s the way history will remember this episode.
The world knew the winner 6 days ago and the boarded up cities realized they readied for a non event.
I predict we won’t spend the next four years trying to delegitimize Biden.

I can imagine, Jolly.
It just seems hard to empathize with because the stolen election hypothesis was fixed in your minds before the first vote was cast. And since the election it has been as firmly held as it is unsupported by material evidence.
But I get it on one level.
Again, I think it’s Trump’s worst legacy and that it is unlikely to go away.
