After reading what @Amos_Umwhat and @silvermouse posted in the Quote of the Day thread I got to looking for more info on the Jan 6th stuff and if President Trump incited a riot. I found this video and thought it was interesting.
A half dozen or so states where Trump was ahead like 700k votes shut down their vote counting at 10 pm and sent ballot watchers home. Then, in the wee hours, in a matter of minutes, with no watchers on the job, each state amazingly dumped like 700k Biden votes into the count. In some cases, the Trump vote mysteriously went down when the Biden total went up. How's a vote count go down?
Did these authorities incite riot by pulling blatant election shenanigans?
PA was one of those states. PA claimed their dead of night votes were absentee ballots. They had expanded absentee balloting to include most anyone who wanted to vote without coming to the polls, and allowed absentees without any certification. Just last month, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that the constitution of that state only allows absentee ballots for soldiers and overseas, and each voter had to be certified. So the vast majority of those absentee ballots were illegal. What good does that do now?
Did whoever expanded PA absentee ballots incite riot by breaking the law?
This type of chicanery was exactly what Trump was complaining should delay certification until such things could be investigated and decided. Courts wouldn't hear evidence. Now that they are hearing evidence. PA is not the only instance where the whole issue appears to have been given the bum's rush. What good do these cases do now?
Did these courts incite riot by refusing to hear evidence until well after the fact?
Just last week, I spotted an article about some Democrat representative from Philly who was finally convicted of election bribery that occurred somewhere around 2005. What good does his conviction do now? Jack Kennedy won the electoral vote when Illinois swung his way on a 6,000 votes margin. Two years later, several men went to prison for engineering rafts of fake ballots in Chicago. What good did those convictions do for Nixon two years later? For many decades, Dixiecrats owned the South because of KKK thuggery and Jim Crow laws. Tammany Hall, Huey Long, the Daley machine... the beat goes on. In those few and long delayed cases where one form of skulduggery is finally overthrown, another devious machination erupts.
Did such a long history of Democrat election duplicity incite riot?
How do you fight a corrupt system peacefully if your vote does not count?
Elections are the Achilles heel of democracy.

Not doubting Webmost's sincerity or research, I just often feel these days like there's literally no venue I can trust. The video Hobbes posted is a refreshingly neutral view of events.
When I reacted to @Hobbes86 question in the quote thread, I was thinking strictly about what we're being told about Jan 6th, mobbing the Capitol etc., and not the motivation. I heard an opinion this morning regarding Liz Cheney's remarks that basically left the 6th off the table, simply focusing on her remarks being about DT's refusal to accept the results of the election. To deny the result of an honest election is unacceptable, tantamount to sedition and insurrection if acted upon.
Was it an honest election? Webmost makes some very interesting points. I've always tried to live by the motto "Question Authority".
