What To Do Now?

Two part post:

For Trump:

Who died and made the media king?  If we learned anything over the last four years, there was incredible bias against Trump that we have never seen before.  Ask Matt Taibbi or Glenn Greenwald. Ask Kim Strassel.  The press has always been liberally biased.  But, we haven’t ever seen what we just experienced.  PRAVDA-like.  Why should we trust them to make a call either way?

Trump should definitely fight.  File lawsuits in court.  Ask for recounts. The court is the only objective place to prove fraud.  Videos, the media, and nowhere else can you prove it. Only the court. It’s objective, it’s evidentiary.  It has procedures.  It has gravitas.

If he proves it in court, it’s good for America.

Second, even if he proves fraud happened it might not be enough to overturn an election.  In that case, he should exit gracefully.

If it is enough to overturn the outcome, Biden should exit gracefully.  It’s America.  We need fraud-free elections and both candidates ought to cut the hyperbole and just litigate it peacefully in the court.  If Biden is confident he won fair and square, he should have no problem with going through that process.

So it takes a month.  Who cares?  A month is a blip in the timeline of history.

For the Democrats:

1) How do you justify your agenda of racial equality, climate action, etc. when 48% of voters rejected you?

2) Given that a large group of your voters voted against Trump, how do you claim any mandate other than not acting like Trump?

3) Given that the main complaint from your party was that Trump failed to follow norms of behavior, will you be asking the Clintons & Obama to retire from the public life, as per tradition?

3a) Will you be bringing the filibuster back to the Senate now that Harry Reid abused it, and Mitch McConnell abused it?

4) How can you justify changing course in the Middle East since peace has broken our?  Will you be renewing prior policy with Iran?

5) You framed the election as a battle for America’s soul and 48% of Americans voted against you, will you concede that your framing of the campaign was invalid? If not, how do you square that?  If we apportioned electoral votes, you would have lost narrowly 270-268.

6) Will you denounce Rep. Ocasio-Cortez’ Purge List of Trump Enablers?  Will you denounce and expunge the socialists and communists that reside comfortably inside your party?

7) Your party whined terribly about the deficit.  How will you be changing the course of spending to decrease the functional deficit, not by using accounting hocus pocus?

For the media:

How will you redeem yourself?  Will you issue a mea culpa?
