Like a normal "good honorable loser"? Instead of continuing to promote the unproven big lie.
I mean pretty much every other President in the history of the USA has:
- Praised and respected the US election systems, and honored the people who work to make it so.
- Ran a hard race and accepted that the vote counts were very accurate and correct.
- Conceded if they lost.
Where as Trump chose to:
- Accused the US election systems of being corrupt, fixed, inaccurate, etc.
- Insulted the many many American's who work in that system.
- Work to destroy the confidence of American citizens regarding these most important systems, by insisting that if he failed to win it had to be because the systems were fixed.
- Claim the win very pre-maturely, before the ballots were all counted.
- Ask the Georgia Sec of State to "find" ~11,000 so he would win.
- Claim the win after the count, court cases and audits were completed.
- Asked his followers to fight at the Capitol
- Still promote the "Big Lie" for more than a year.
And at this time ~75% of Republican voters still believe the Big Lie. Which means that they:
- Have bought into Trump's lie.
- Have decided to disregard the recounts, audits, court rulings, logic, etc.
- Believe their opinions are above the US Laws, Courts, etc.
- Propagate the lie and distrust in the United States and its democracy.
Thus they weaken our country. All because a very poor loser planted a conspiracy theory in their mind.
I sure hope the Republicans come back to valuing the rule of law, and making it safe and easy for every eligible voter to vote. Winning by intentionally trying to keep people from voting and weakening the power of their vote is NOT good for our democracy or country. :-(
I mean image if a DEM Leader went around claiming there was deep voter fraud in SD? Would that help things or destabilize them? Faith in our local and state officials and systems is what keeps our country strong. Destroy that faith at your own peril.
Trump lost by 4 States and ~7.5 million votes. It was not even close. It is time accept reality and support our country.

Interesting how this has drawn no comments?
I mean the man intentionally promoted distrust in a core American system for personal gain...
Which in essence is promoting distrust in our country...
How much worse does it get?
Well... Maybe those people who still believe him rank right up there... :-O :-(

I can certainly point to attempts by Republicans to defraud voters. President Trump was caught on tape trying to steal the election in Georgia. How many other times did he try to do that when the tape recorders weren't running? How do we know he always failed? To quote my favorite Laszlo Birinyi quote, "There is never just one cockroach." But Republicans seem to have forgotten are recent history, indeed that they are committed to concealing as much of our recent history as they can.

Hiram,
I did not want anything to distract Jerry from answering those 2 simple questions.
