Stuart Stevens is not having it. He issued a challenge to Rs

Basically, if you can't say that Biden won the 2020 election, the same election that got you into office, you should resign. Absolutely, I agree because obviously, you weren't fairly elected either. Put your money where your mouth is.

Think about that in light of trump's new call to release the names and personal info of 2020 GA election workers. We have an R party that is allowed to throw all kinds of BS around about elections, but many of them are IN OFFICE only because of that same election.

Dems need to call that out every time one of these creeps refuses to say Biden won and uses that to spread doubt about the midterms.

In other words, the core belief they are required to profess is a BIG FAT LIE.

Because they dare not cross the BIG FAT LIAR.

and we can not allow that to be normalized. Of course, it already has been but we don't have to accept it.

He is serving a third term. Presidents cannot serve 3 terms. And my county voted for Trump, so can we reverse that outcome too since we all cheated?

If the 2020 election was rigged against TSF, than any R who won in 2020 was elected illegitimately, right?

It's a litmus test.

No Repuke ever says HOW Dems could have "rigged" the election, because it's preposterous. But it's the lie that is essential: never legitimize Democratic control.

When asked if they will make decisions independently of Trump (SCOTUS, the FED, cabinet positions, etc.) and the person says yes, it should be followed by: 'Who won the 202 presidential election?" Anyone who can't say Biden, can't even tie their shoes without Trump's permission. We can't emphasize this enough.

I have seen many Dems raise this at confirmation hearings. But it should be a red line for any nominee to get any crossover votes.

THIS, DAMMIT!!!

Btw, that “doubt” thing can work TWO WAYS. You doubt that Biden won? Well, how do we know YOU won legitimately? Can we examine the vote counts? Maybe count again, in case you might be LYING!!!

Rule Number One for dealing with Republicans: Always assume they’re lying. Right from the get-go. Make ‘em PROVE IT.

There is no Rule Number Two.

That the colors red, white and blue, will run when attached to him!

Oh, one more thing, it proves he lost and that is why he skedaddled* the Hell out of there.

*one of the bastard's favorite words.
