Authenticity is important.

Keep in mind, over 72 million voted for him. Probably closer to 78m. I have ZERO doubt the election was stolen.
With you, sort of. I still can't equate his facing the house/media/etc. with the folks I know that have faced an armed enemy and still kept their composure. Grab your nuts and STFU sometimes is the right answer, even though it pains you to do so.

He needed to look at the long play and not be so predictively reactive that it undermined the cause.

So, again, how do we improve? I could easily poop on everything that the new administration and legislature does, but that's what the media expects and thrives on. I can also just bunker down and hope for different results in 2022. I do not want to do either, but can easily do so. A system that depends on discord to keep people employed is broke.

OK, done with today's rant. Promise.

Happy 2021...
