What's this?

I’m struggling to think of something I care about less than your

Opinion of my point here. Russian collusion with the Trump campaign in 2016 was confirmed in great detail in the senate Intel report, no matter how hard you try to make believe it isn’t there. The absence of any fraud in this election remotely close to changing the result, or any more or less than trivial levels in any American election, is even more definitively confirmed in endless court challenges, recounts, hearings, and 50 different state certification processes.

So there is no analogy here. Yes, the Russians colluded with the Trump campaign in 2016. No, there was no election fraud and there never was a remotely plausible assertion on that matter. Most court challenges lasted about 20 seconds before being thrown out. Both those things are true and they have nothing to do with each other.

Except the common thread of Trumpistan’s stunning ability to live in a fantasy world.
