The big liars who are promoting false claims of a stolen 2020 presidential election want us to believe their lies are self-evident truths that support the fact that the lying previous president won. These frivolous and ridiculous claims will not win out in the long run, but these lies are inciting vicious claims that eat away at our democracy.
The truth will survive, but I am not sure our democracy can withstand the onslaught of those lies when all of our elected officials — local, state and federal — are not standing up to counter them with a forceful resolve to support the truth. The presidential election was not stolen, and we must take positive actions to ensure the survival of American democracy.
The very serious matter of protecting our democracy, and all it entails, needs our best supporting efforts now before it’s too late. Do not fret about the big liars’ future because sooner or later, they will face the consequences of their actions, the appropriate responsibility with just punishments.
