Two things are true: Joe Biden won the November election. And there continue to be massive questions about voter fraud.
They are not contradictory. There is no double standard to acknowledge that Biden won, while questioning how he did it. Does anyone really think more people voted for Joe Biden than Barack Obama? Does anyone really think Republicans won up and down the ballot, except for president in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Nevada?
The Journal Sentinel tried to take its shot at Ron Johnson yesterday for basically saying the same thing.
One day after the Electoral College affirmed Democrat Joe Biden’s presidential victory, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisconsin, said in an interview that he acknowledged Biden as the president-elect and believed the election was legitimate.
At the same time, Johnson plans to hold a Senate hearing Wednesday on election “irregularities,” saying there are “legitimate questions” about the way the election was administrated in Wisconsin and other states.
“All I’m trying to do is hold a very upfront, straightforward hearing talking about what controls there are in place, what fraud does occur, what can we do to prevent fraud in the future,” said Johnson in an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Johnson contended there are unanswered questions about the election process.
But asked if he regarded the election as "legitimate," he said, "Yes. I haven’t seen anything that would convince me that the results — the overall national result — would be overturned."
Oh, burn. They got him talking out of both sides of his mouth. Woot-woot.
No. Johnson is simply saying the same thing that millions of Americans are saying, that Democrats screamed during the 2000 election mess in Florida. “Who really won?!?!”
It is important to answer any and all lingering questions about the November election because we have another election in two years, and another presidential election in four.
If we can’t figure out about absentee ballots and vote harvesting before then, we will have another election under a shroud of distrust.
But because Joe Biden won, the Left is uninterested in finding those answers. In answering the questions.
