I just want this question put to bed for good because the US has enough issues to deal with. If Trump lost but HE was the one revealed to have attempted to cheat or those on his behalf did, then shame on them. I mostly want to see the man who won be cleared of this crap, assuming he can be beyond any doubt, which is more an issue of that being a higher priority for me than naked bias.
Geth, seen from outside the States, the issue is that the question CANNOT be put to rest, because there is
NO evidence that will be accepted by Trump and the Republican leaders that answer to him.
The stolen election claim has become the biggest issue for their campaigns and their fundraising, and is an article of faith for their hardcore supporters. No Republican elected official will dare deny it because they would be primaried and defeated by some other candidate that will pander to them.
It's like the old proverb that you cannot make somebody understand something when their job depends on not understanding it.
