Fighting On
By J.R. Dunn
So Mitch McConnell thinks it’s over. We need to congratulate Biden (whom I have taken to calling “President Asteriskâ€), forget everything, put it all behind us, and move on. According to Mitch, the greatest political crime in American history is something you just walk away from.
Mitch is not alone in this, nor was he the first. Mitch’s neighbor Sen. Lamar Alexander on Dec, 13 stated, “The presidential election is over. States have certified the votes. Courts have resolved disputes. The electors have voted. I hope that President Trump will put the country first, take pride in his considerable accomplishments, and help president-elect Biden get off to a good start.†Others include Byron York and William Jacobson of Legal Insurrection, who is simply “tired… so tired…†and of course, the dapper young gents at NRO, who… well, playmates, don’t let me commence.
The consensus among this crowd is that there is no upside to continuing the fight, no benefits to be gained, nothing at all to be achieved. Instead, we should back down, as Republicans and conservatives have done a thousand times before, take our whipping, resign ourselves to the fact that no honest election from dogcatcher on up will ever again occur in the U.S., and prepare the single suitcase we’re allowed while we wait for the truck to take us to Alger Hiss Reeducation Camp at Prudhoe Bay.
All this, like much else said about Donald Trump, is nonsense. Trump’s great struggle to secure his victory is not only acceptable, not only justified, it is necessary.
