There likely were sporadic cases of election fraud, but at this point, it doesn't seem like it was widespread enough to make a difference to the outcome. Rush Limbaugh tweeted that ''Trump won by a landslide...'' But, then MR posts everything to negate that.  (Not that I care much about Rush Limbaugh, but ya know...)

The damage Trump would do: " Thankfully, there is such an institutional and legal mechanism standing in Trump's way this time. So he won't be able to ride a wave of outrage among his supporters to a second term. But that doesn't mean that Trump isn't doing enormous, potentially long-lasting damage to American democracy. [...] to stay in power, Trump needs to win the capitulation not just of his own party but of the American electoral system as a whole. That's why, although he will almost certainly fail at reversing the results of the 2020 election, he could well succeed at sending American democracy into a tailspin from which it could not easily recover."
He is like an agitated bull bucking around in a high quality porcelain shop. Any holes punctured in the wall and any china he might break and batter that doesn't get restored/repaired could as much come around to haunt a future Phant candidate in a post-election period as a Donk one.

Georgia to start second recount, because the margin is less than 0.5%.

Don’t know why people are getting bent over Trump’s recount requests. If you truly believe he lost then who cares? If anything it will prove just how good the election process is and doesn’t that make it a double win? Trump losing twice should make the Biden camp ecstatic.

Absolutely, which is why the media blackout on election irregularities would actually seem to verify them. No reasonable person would do that unless they genuinely fear the results of recounts and investigations could upset their desired outcome. That...or the leftists and media (but I repeat myself) are just literally insane. I'd give that even odds.

Agree that there is nothing to fear over a recount, if you're confident that fraud didn't happen.

The Fake News media has the most to lose. They seem to be controlling this post election fiasco. From what I’ve watched, the reporting is so one-sidedly biased pro Democrat. Are they up to no good, have they committed something criminal in this election. I’m at a loss as to why the Fake News media are worried about recounts.

The infamous "they" of the conspiracy theorist, as if all the media outlets are in cahoots because they too were involved in election fraud. I just feel sorry for people like you, so paranoid that the evening news is filled with demons.
