Twitter has reportedly censored President Donald Trump and his campaign 111 times since May 2018 as of Monday. That, it may not surprise you to learn, is 111 times more than Twitter has censored Joe Biden and his campaign.
According to an analysis by the Media Research Center, that number has been bolstered since Election Day with almost three dozen tweets censored in some way, shape or form.
Most of the censored communications, it also won’t surprise you to learn, involve the election and the validity of the results.
“The company’s arsenal used against Team Trump included labels, filters, blocking URLs and preventing users from commenting on certain tweets,” the Media Research Center’s Corinne Weaver wrote in the Monday piece.

Overall, Twitter has censored Trump since May 31, 2018, a grand total of 111 times. In contrast, Biden and his campaign have received no forms of censorship or suppression.”
Now, you could tell me it’s because Joe Biden (or likely a highly remunerated social media expert who can carefully deploy neutral language that sounds almost strong enough to resemble something worth reading) tweets amorphous, anodyne stuff like this:
When I’m speaking to foreign leaders, I’m telling them: America is going to be back. We’re going to be back in the game. — Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) November 10, 2020
That’s ol’ “no malarkey” Joe, telling like it is — whatever he’s telling us.

Both Twitter and Facebook, meanwhile — and Twitter in particular — have made it their holy mission to crack down on anything that potentially questions the legitimacy of mail-in voting or the results it produced.
Some of this stuff goes further than others, it’s worth noting, and perhaps a flag or two on some of the more controversial ones would pass with a bit of grumbling about the state of Silicon Valley.
However, some of the flags came on clips like this from Fox News’ “The Next Revolution With Steve Hilton”:
Yes, “[t]his claim about election fraud is disputed.” What’s the claim about election fraud, though?
It’s just Tammy Bruce, a Fox News contributor and Washington Times columnist saying this: “There’s always some kind of fraud, that’s unavoidable. But when you’re dealing with the most vulnerable voting dynamic, which are the mail-in ballots, that’s the biggest issue. And now with it being about 50 percent of what came in, we have to be able to deal with the nature of the legitimacy of this and if it can be legitimate.”
Here’s Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz talking about software issues in Michigan and how “[t]he legal process is how you resolve those questions.”
Again, “disputed.”
Maria Bartiromo and GOP South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham talking about dead people voting: “disputed.”
The Media Research Center makes the facts on this one pretty clear: “[A]ccording to 2012 research done by the Pew Center on the States, 1.8 million deceased people were registered as voters. This topic has been discussed broadly by both sides in the past 10 years.”
And if you’re retweeted by Trump, you could be in trouble, as well.

This is reason enough to go to court. No honest person can look at this and say it’s normal and unconcerning. https://t.co/CguBRGCRLD — Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) November 4, 2020

There’s journalist Paul Sperry and pundits Matt Walsh and Dan Bongino. Retweeted by Trump — and all with some censorship on them.

It probably won’t surprise you that Big Tech bias played a huge role in the election. In fact, the Media Research Center indicated that the suppression could have cost Trump the race, with an estimate of 289 electoral votes for the president if the Hunter Biden laptop story hadn’t been suppressed.
We’ll never know whether or not that’s true, but what’s clear is that Big Tech plans on putting its thumb on the electoral scales every few years.
What they want is nice, pleasant, pliant Republicans who are indistinguishable from Democrats policy-wise, except for the fact they hem and haw and don’t quite give in so easily. Say what you will about President Trump, he fights — and that’s exactly what they don’t want from the GOP.
Yes, you’ll say, but doesn’t Joe Biden say unobjectionable things compared with President Trump?
Of course. Biden would never question the legitimacy of Trump’s 2016 election. That’s what he has his surrogates for.
And when his opponents do the same thing, Biden also has his surrogates in Big Tech to shut them up. It’s what the kids like to call a win-win situation.

westernjournal--2020-11-11--Pennsylvania Elections Board Votes To Count Thousands of Ballots That Would Normally Be Considered I

Pennsylvania Elections Board Votes To Count Thousands of Ballots That Would Normally Be Considered Invalid

One Pennsylvania county has decided that regardless of what election law says , it will count a host of mail-in ballots .
The Allegheny County Board of Elections on Tuesday voted to count 2,349 ballots that had been set aside because the voter did not put a date on the outer envelope , according to TribLive .
The ballots arrived on or before Election Day .
The board is comprised of County Executive Rich Fitzgerald , Councilman Sam DeMarco and Councilwoman Bethany Hallam .
DeMarco , who opposed the motion , was outvoted 2-1 .
DeMarco said the county should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ written , noting that putting the date on the outside envelope is a requirement .

Elections Manager David Voye said about 25,000 ballots must still be counted .
That includes 17,000 provisional ballots — those cast by voters whose names do not appear on the books of registered voters , individuals who say they requested a mail-in ballot but never received one , and voters who can not show ID when asked .

westernjournal--2020-11-11--Fox News Cuts Off McEnany News Conference Discussing Allegations of Voter Fraud

Fox News would just prefer to move along as quickly as possible .
It ’ s understandable .
Nobody should kid themselves : The likelihood that President Donald Trump ’ s court challenges to the election , along with recounts in some states , will end up producing a victory for him isn ’ t a high one at the moment .
However , when there are affidavits alleging voter fraud , when there are statistical irregularities , they need to be covered .

“ You don ’ t oppose an audit of the vote because you want an accurate count .
You @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sunlight and transparency because you have nothing to hide .
“ You take these positions because you are welcoming fraud and you are welcoming illegal voting .
“ Our position is clear .
We want to protect the franchise of the American people .
We want an honest , accurate , lawful count .
We want maximum sunlight .
We want maximum transparency .
We want every legal vote to be counted and we want every illegal vote to be discarded.
” This is when , if you were watching the briefing on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in .
“ Whoa , whoa , whoa .
I just think we have to be very clear , ” Cavuto said .

” This isn ’ t necessarily evidence .
Even Tucker Carlson , who ’ s been one of the loudest voices on Fox News for letting the legal process play out and highlighting evidence he says points toward fraudulent votes being cast , put it bluntly and effectively : “ At this stage , the fraud that we can confirm does @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the election result .
We should be honest and tell you that.
” There are two things we ought to point out here , though .
The first is from Carlson , who took a thinly veiled shot at his network ’ s decision to cut away from the news conference on that night ’ s show .

Fox News would just prefer to move along as quickly as possible.
It’s understandable. Nobody should kid themselves: The likelihood that President Donald Trump’s court challenges to the election, along with recounts in some states, will end up producing a victory for him isn’t a high one at the moment.
However, when there are affidavits alleging voter fraud, when there are statistical irregularities, they need to be covered. No matter whether they would produce a change in the electoral result, rest assured we’d be covering these challenges breathlessly if Democrat Joe Biden were making them.
Thus, yes, it might not be a fun thing to cover, not at the moment. However, that’s what the media should be for — not for posturing, not for narrative, but for covering the facts.
On Monday, Fox News and Neil Cavuto decided that was inconvenient.
So here was the scene: At the White House, press secretary Kayleigh McEnany and Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel were talking about lawsuits regarding election disputes.
During the news conference, McEnany said there was “only one party in America trying to keep observers out of the count room, and that party, my friends, is the Democrat Party.”
“You don’t take these positions because you want an honest election,” she continued, according to a transcript. “You don’t oppose an audit of the vote because you want an accurate count. You don’t oppose our efforts at sunlight and transparency because you have nothing to hide.
“You take these positions because you are welcoming fraud and you are welcoming illegal voting.
“Our position is clear. We want to protect the franchise of the American people. We want an honest, accurate, lawful count. We want maximum sunlight. We want maximum transparency. We want every legal vote to be counted and we want every illegal vote to be discarded.”
This is when, if you were watching the briefing on Fox News, anchor Neil Cavuto broke in.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa. I just think we have to be very clear,” Cavuto said.
“She’s charging the other side as welcoming fraud and illegal voting, unless she has more details to back that up, I can’t in good countenance continue to show you this.”

McEnany and McDaniel went on to provide details during the news conference, including poll watchers not being able to observe in Pennsylvania and Michigan and election workers who were “verbally accosted” and intimidated.
When asked later in the briefing whether she had any specific information on people illegally voting, McEnany called for “patience.”
“Ronna just mentioned to you the more than I believe it was 130 affidavits in Michigan alone. We’re aware of all the reports of thousands of votes in Nevada that were cast by those who were not eligible,” she said. “We are getting affidavits, so right now we would point you to all of that, that information is publicly available but what we’re asking for right now is patience as we explore these equal protection claims among others.”
Do you agree with Cavuto's decision to cut away from the news conference? Yes No
Completing this poll entitles you to The Western Journal news updates free of charge. You may opt out at anytime. You also agree to our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use Yes: 2% (77 Votes) No: 98% (4376 Votes)
This isn’t necessarily evidence. Even Tucker Carlson, who’s been one of the loudest voices on Fox News for letting the legal process play out and highlighting evidence he says points toward fraudulent votes being cast, put it bluntly and effectively: “At this stage, the fraud that we can confirm does not seem to be enough to alter the election result. We should be honest and tell you that.”
There are two things we ought to point out here, though.
The first is from Carlson, who took a thinly veiled shot at his network’s decision to cut away from the news conference on that night’s show.
“In a democracy, you cannot ignore honest questions from citizens. You’re not allowed,” he said.
“You can’t dismiss them out of hand as crazy or immoral for asking. You can’t just cut away from coverage you don’t like.”
The other came from Ronna McDaniel in the news conference Cavuto and Fox News cut away from.
“If the shoe were on the other foot, if it were this close the other way, if President Trump was in the lead in all these states, the media would be screaming, ‘This isn’t over, the race isn’t over, we need more time to count and make sure it’s right,'” she said. “But because it’s Biden in a very slight lead, the media demands the race is over and there is nothing to see here.”
Just so we’re clear, please don’t group me with the people who believe once this goes to court, the mask of fraud and voter suppression is going to be ripped off the Democratic Party machine like a villain at the end of a “Scooby Doo” episode. Zoinks — it was old man Soros all along! And he would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for us meddling patriots.
Whether the legal challenges make any kind of concrete change in the results — and let’s be clear, we haven’t seen evidence yet that they will — isn’t the point, however. If this situation were reversed, Biden wouldn’t be yanked off stage with a Vaudevillian cane and told to concede or else risk damaging our democracy.
If the court challenges amount to nothing, we move on. There might be bitter clingers, the same way there are bitter clingers consumed with the conspiracy theory that Trump was the Muscovite candidate and wouldn’t have succeeded without Russian intervention. They’ll be thoroughly left in the dustbin of history.
If there’s substance to the challenges, we go from there.
Either way, we’re far from the point where we should have Joe Biden standing in front of a ludicrous banner declaring himself in the “Office of the President-Elect.” We’re also not at the point where Neil Cavuto is doing himself or those talking up the unquestioned legitimacy of the result any favors by cutting off this news conference.

As of Wednesday, the former hasn’t been officially called and the latter clearly isn’t going to happen. Given that record, it’s easy for conservatives not to be thrilled at how this is playing out on Fox.
We were told before the election that the endgame might take weeks due to the unusual nature of the 2020 election. The media shouldn’t act so surprised, then, when it does.

Three people were wounded Wednesday when an improvised explosive device targeted a ceremony of French, American, British, Italian and Greek officials commemorating the end of World War I at a cemetery in the Saudi city of Jeddah, according to official statements.
The ceremony was held at a cemetery for non-Muslim dead, French Foreign Ministry officials said.
“Such attacks on innocent people are shameful and entirely without justification,” said a joint statement issued by the embassies of the five countries in attendance. The group also acknowledged the work of Saudi first responders at the scene.
Hours after the attack, Saudi state media quoted a local official acknowledging the attack and saying a Greek consulate employee and Saudi security guard were lightly wounded in the incident.
The British government said one U.K. national suffered minor injuries.
The Saudi official said an investigation was underway.
Greece’s Foreign Ministry condemned the attack and said a Greek police officer serving in the Greek Consulate in Jeddah was wounded. The ministry said the wounded officer had been hospitalized but was in good health and his life was not in danger.
Saudi state television also broadcast from outside the cemetery and said the security situation had stabilized.
Wednesday’s attack comes on the heels of an Oct. 29 stabbing that lightly wounded a guard at the French Consulate in the same city. The stabbing was carried out by a Saudi man who was arrested.
France has suffered two deadly terror attacks by foreign-born Muslims in the past month.
A teacher was beheaded outside Paris for showing caricatures of Muhammad to his class for a debate on free expression, and three people were later killed in a church in the southern city of Nice.
The depictions of the prophet sparked protests and calls for boycotts of French products among some Muslims in the Middle East and South Asia. France has urged its citizens in Saudi Arabia and other Muslim-majority countries to be “on maximum alert” amid the heightened tensions.
Saudi Arabia’s monarch and top clerics are among those who have condemned the depictions of Muhammad.
Wednesday marked the 102nd anniversary of the armistice ending World War I.
Nadia Chaaya, an official who represents French citizens living in Saudi Arabia, was at the ceremony when it came under attack.
Do you think this bombing was triggered by the depictions of Muhammad? Yes No

The call for an investigation comes in response to a Michigan county flipping from a win for Democrat Joe Biden to one for President Donald Trump after a vote tabulation error was discovered. According to The New York Times, which cited state officials, election workers “had configured the Dominion ballot scanners and reporting software with slightly different versions of the ballot, which meant that the votes were counted correctly but that they were reported incorrectly.”
“We heard a report from one county in Michigan where the election software mistakenly counted 6,000 votes that were cast for Donald Trump, it switched them to Joe Biden,” Cruz said, referring to the Dominion software.
“Now they apparently caught that, but that same software is used in 47 counties throughout Michigan. That needs to be examined to determine that there is not a problem counting the votes.”
“The legal process is how you resolve those questions.”
Cruz then went on to criticize mainstream media outlets for calling the race early, comparing the situation to the Bush vs. Gore fiasco of the 2000 presidential election.

Several Republican senators are saying that regardless of President Donald Trump ’ s lawsuits concerning last week ’ s election , it is time that presumptive potential President-elect Joe Biden is given daily intelligence briefings .
One GOP senator , James Lankford of Oklahoma , has gone so far as to say that he will take action on Friday to help Biden access the daily briefing given to the president .
“ This needs to occur so that regardless of the outcome of the election , whichever way that it goes , people can be ready for that actual task @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to USA Today .
“ If that ’ s not occurring by Friday , I will step in , ” added Lankford , who is a member of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee .

White House spokesman Judd Deere told USA Today that the Trump administration “is following all statutory requirements.”

Sen. Angus King of Maine, an independent who caucuses with Democrats, said that if there is a transition, it could be a period of potential vulnerability.
“The transition is inherently a dangerous period,” King said.
“There are clear national security implications here, and you want the incoming administration to be as fully as informed as possible about where the danger areas are,” he added.
The issue of briefings is not the only bone of contention concerning the intelligence community, where a battle of whether the Trump administration should oust CIA director Gina Haspel has spilled into the Twittersphere.
Why the hell are Republican senators trying to manipulate @realDonaldTrump into keeping Gina Haspel, who undermines Trump and subverts his agenda at every turn? @JohnCornyn, @marcorubio, @senatemajldr are getting played by a master case officer.

Donald Trump Jr. then entered the debate.
Have you or @marcorubio or @senatemajldr actually discussed this with anyone in the Admin. who actually works with her, like @DNI_Ratcliffe or @MarkMeadows or @robertcobrien, to get their perspective, or are you just taking a trained liar’s word for it on everything? https://t.co/jMoccaF60W — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) November 11, 2020
Amid the arguing over Haspel, Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah said he’s all for moving full speed ahead with a transition.
“It’s very much in our national interest, in our foreign policy interest, national security interest, to make sure that if there’s a new team that may become the leadership team, that they be given all access as quickly as possible,” Romney told NBC News.

westernjournal--2020-11-13--Stacey Abrams Lost 1 State by More Votes Than Trump Is Losing in GA, AZ and WI Combined – She Still

Stacey Abrams Lost 1 State by More Votes Than Trump Is Losing in GA, AZ and WI Combined – She Still Hasn’t Conceded

The failed 2018 Georgia gubernatorial run for Democratic star Stacey Abrams is a case study in the double standards applied by Democrats and the establishment media .
We of course know that if Democrats didn ’ t have double standards , they ’ d have no standards at all .
But their hypocrisy is particularly appalling when you consider that Abrams lost her race in the Peach State by a larger margin of votes than President Donald Trump is currently behind in the combined battleground states of Arizona , Georgia and Wisconsin .
That ’ s excluding valid questions about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ such as Pennsylvania and Michigan , where the Trump campaign is digging in for a fight to prove claims of rampant voter fraud and other apparent election irregularities .
While the establishment media was quick to call the presidential race for Democrat Joe Biden last week , and now demand Trump congratulate him and concede , Abrams still hasn ’ t conceded her gubernatorial campaign — two years after the votes were tabulated .
TRENDING : Remember Michael Flynn ?
Obama Hack Admits Biden Is 'Having Phone Calls ' with Foreign Countries While @ @ @ @ @ @ @ president of attempting to thwart Democracy by refusing to concede a contested election , Abrams is still hailed as some sort of intrepid political martyr for refusing to admit her defeat .
Abrams lost the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race by a total of 54,723 votes , according to the final results as reported by Ballotpedia .
In contrast , in the states of Arizona , Georgia and Wisconsin , Trump is only down a combined 46,993 votes , according to current data provided by The New York Times .
Georgia is of course @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and litigation in the other states will challenge the votes amid claims of widespread irregularities .
But while Trump is guilty in the eyes of the slanted legacy media of harming the democratic process , Abrams is still celebrated for refusing to concede what was a clear loss .
Abrams ’ national relevancy can in fact only be attributed to her refusal to accept the will of voters and gracefully admit defeat .
Had Abrams gone away quietly , it ’ s arguable that nobody would even remember she ran .
But because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of voters , she ’ s celebrated as a credible figure for Democrats , who continually push her as a rising star .
The New York Times Magazine offered a gleaming profile of Abrams all the way back in April of 2019 .
The outlet pressed the Democrat on issues such as a potential Senate run and how she was handling her national fame after refusing to accept a loss .
How is The New York Times approaching Trump ’ s rightful challenge of the 2020 presidential race ?
The Times on Wednesday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Aleksandr Lukashenko , who controversially won a sixth term in office in August following an election that critics said was rigged .
The Associated Press later reported on protests of Lukashenko ’ s victory with the following headline : “ Over 50,000 march in Belarus against authoritarian leader.
” Trump is being connected to an “ authoritarian ” international leader over his decision to legally contest the presidential election , while Abrams is apparently heroic for refusing to accept defeat in the gubernatorial race .
In fact , immediately following her 2018 loss @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her defeat by legitimizing her claims that she was robbed by systemic voter disenfranchisement , and celebrated her for creating a “ diverse coalition ” of voters which almost saw her become the first black female state governor .
But Abrams lost to Gov .
Brian Kemp , a Republican , and her refusal to concede elicited no connection to international authoritarians .
Abrams argued , without evidence , that voter suppression led to her defeat , and being she is a liberal Democrat , she was hailed as a positive figure in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ loss , “ Concession means to acknowledge an action is right , true , or proper .
As a woman of conscience and faith , I can not concede .
But my assessment is that the law currently allows no further viable remedy.
” Charles Bethea with The New Yorker summarized the speech , by writing , “ Abrams ’ s unapologetic — and strikingly unconceding — concession speech , which lasted a little more than ten minutes , was pointed in its criticism of Kemp.
” The New Yorker profile of Abrams @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to concede the race , instead focusing on the historic nature of her campaign .
The same establishment media that celebrates Abrams as a star for losing is now asking Americans to accept its narrative that Trump is engaging in an unprecedented attack on the democratic process .
With Trump ’ s combined deficit in three states being smaller than Abrams ’ singular Peach State loss , we ’ re now asked to write Trump off as a petty obstructionist .

The failed 2018 Georgia gubernatorial run for Democratic star Stacey Abrams is a case study in the double standards applied by Democrats and the establishment media.
We of course know that if Democrats didn’t have double standards, they’d have no standards at all.
But their hypocrisy is particularly appalling when you consider that Abrams lost her race in the Peach State by a larger margin of votes than President Donald Trump is currently behind in the combined battleground states of Arizona, Georgia and Wisconsin.
That’s excluding valid questions about voting totals in other key states, such as Pennsylvania and Michigan, where the Trump campaign is digging in for a fight to prove claims of rampant voter fraud and other apparent election irregularities.
While the establishment media was quick to call the presidential race for Democrat Joe Biden last week, and now demand Trump congratulate him and concede, Abrams still hasn’t conceded her gubernatorial campaign — two years after the votes were tabulated.
While Democrats and the mainstream media accuse the president of attempting to thwart Democracy by refusing to concede a contested election, Abrams is still hailed as some sort of intrepid political martyr for refusing to admit her defeat.
Abrams lost the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race by a total of 54,723 votes, according to the final results as reported by Ballotpedia.
In contrast, in the states of Arizona, Georgia and Wisconsin, Trump is only down a combined 46,993 votes, according to current data provided by The New York Times.
Do you think President Trump will prevail in the courts to win a second term? Yes No

Georgia is of course headed for a first-ever by-hand recount, and litigation in the other states will challenge the votes amid claims of widespread irregularities.
But while Trump is guilty in the eyes of the slanted legacy media of harming the democratic process, Abrams is still celebrated for refusing to concede what was a clear loss.
Abrams’ national relevancy can in fact only be attributed to her refusal to accept the will of voters and gracefully admit defeat.
Had Abrams gone away quietly, it’s arguable that nobody would even remember she ran.
But because of her decision to resist the will of voters, she’s celebrated as a credible figure for Democrats, who continually push her as a rising star.
The New York Times Magazine offered a gleaming profile of Abrams all the way back in April of 2019.
The outlet pressed the Democrat on issues such as a potential Senate run and how she was handling her national fame after refusing to accept a loss.
How is The New York Times approaching Trump’s rightful challenge of the 2020 presidential race?
The Times on Wednesday attempted to link Trump to Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko, who controversially won a sixth term in office in August following an election that critics said was rigged.
The Associated Press later reported on protests of Lukashenko’s victory with the following headline: “Over 50,000 march in Belarus against authoritarian leader.”
Trump is being connected to an “authoritarian” international leader over his decision to legally contest the presidential election, while Abrams is apparently heroic for refusing to accept defeat in the gubernatorial race.
In fact, immediately following her 2018 loss in Georgia, The New Yorker profiled her defeat by legitimizing her claims that she was robbed by systemic voter disenfranchisement, and celebrated her for creating a “diverse coalition” of voters which almost saw her become the first black female state governor.
But Abrams lost to Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican, and her refusal to concede elicited no connection to international authoritarians.
Abrams argued, without evidence, that voter suppression led to her defeat, and being she is a liberal Democrat, she was hailed as a positive figure in politics.
Abrams actually said after the loss, “Concession means to acknowledge an action is right, true, or proper. As a woman of conscience and faith, I cannot concede. But my assessment is that the law currently allows no further viable remedy.”
Charles Bethea with The New Yorker summarized the speech, by writing, “Abrams’s unapologetic — and strikingly unconceding — concession speech, which lasted a little more than ten minutes, was pointed in its criticism of Kemp.”
The New Yorker profile of Abrams went on to write off her refusal to concede the race, instead focusing on the historic nature of her campaign.
The same establishment media that celebrates Abrams as a star for losing is now asking Americans to accept its narrative that Trump is engaging in an unprecedented attack on the democratic process.
With Trump’s combined deficit in three states being smaller than Abrams’ singular Peach State loss, we’re now asked to write Trump off as a petty obstructionist.
The establishment media, meanwhile, has rewarded Abrams’ subverting of the will of voters by offering her a pulpit to spew Democratic talking points and by even previously suggesting she should be considered as Biden’s running mate.
It appeared for a while that Biden might even take the bait, although he ultimately chose Sen. Kamala Harris of California, a leftist who, if nothing else, actually won her last election.
While Trump’s challenging of the election results might come up unsuccessful, he owes it to more than 70 million voters who are currently losing faith in the integrity of the country’s elections.
The contrast in how Trump and Abrams have been reported about in the last ten days has shown us again who Democrats and the mainstream media are.
They refuse to apply the 2000 Al Gore standard to contesting an election to Trump.
The media has no interest in fairness or getting to the bottom of widespread reports of election irregularities.
The media wants what it’s always wanted, which is for Trump to be exiled in disgrace.
Abrams, despite losing and making unfounded claims about voter suppression, is celebrated as a historic figure, while Trump is maligned for rightly challenging the results of a murky election.
Trump hasn’t conceded last week’s election results, nor should he, while he exhausts legal remedies to ensure the voting was free, fair and absent of widespread election malfeasance on the part of urban Democrats in swing states.
Should Trump fail to succeed in the courts or with other potential Constitutional avenues to a victory, there is no legitimate doubt he would bow out and move on.
But never forget that Abrams refused to concede an election that was decided two years ago, and the media made her a star for it.

In fact , Woods highlighted a Hobbs tweet from 2017 that called Trump backers the president ’ s “ neo-nazi base.

“ As Arizona ’ s Secretary of State , she will be in charge of any recount .

It’s no exaggeration to say the whole world’s watching as the American presidential election plays out in overtime.
But it’s a good bet there aren’t many watching closer than James Woods.
One of the few outspoken conservatives in the circles of Hollywood stars, Woods has been a consistent and vocal supporter of President Donald Trump for years. On Thursday, nine days after polls closed nationwide, Woods published a tweet that drew heightened attention to a key figure in one of the country’s key states:
Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs.
A figure virtually unknown outside the Grand Canyon State, Hobbs has a deeply partisan history in Arizona politics, rising to her current office in the election of 2018 after serving as a Democratic representative in the state House and as the Democratic minority leader in the state Senate.
But Hobbs isn’t just any partisan Democrat. She has a history of social media posts that show an antipathy toward Trump and his supporters that sounds like the equal of any antifa thug in the streets of Portland or Seattle.
In fact, Woods highlighted a Hobbs tweet from 2017 that called Trump backers the president’s “neo-nazi base.”
This woman is calling every Trump voter a “Nazi.” As Arizona’s Secretary of State, she will be in charge of any recount. Should she not recuse herself after vocally dismissing half the electorate in her state? pic.twitter.com/i7EMngdeiR — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) November 12, 2020
“This woman is calling every Trump voter a ‘Nazi,’” Woods wrote. “As Arizona’s Secretary of State, she will be in charge of any recount. Should she not recuse herself after vocally dismissing half the electorate in here state?”
It doesn’t take a MAGA hat to know that’s a legitimate question.
In her office as secretary of state, after all, Hobbs has the duty of ensuring that every legal voter gets a fair shake — including voters who support a man she apparently considers the founder of a potential Fourth Reich.
Leave aside the fact that those Democratic hysterics are as grossly insulting as they are groundless (if any party resembles Hitler’s National Socialists after all, it’s not Republicans). What matters here is the utter contempt the comes through loud and clear.
Check out another Hobbs post, unearthed by the Washington Examiner, claiming Trump supports “freaking Nazis”:
The President is on the side of the freaking Nazis. Don’t just say stuff – DO SOMETHING!!! https://t.co/Es9ScskF58 — Katie Hobbs (@katiehobbs) August 12, 2017
Now, as the Examiner pointed out, the publication of the “Nazi” posts followed the August 2017 clash in Charlottesville, Virginia, that left a young woman dead.
Leftists have maliciously lied about Trump’s statements about Charlottesville ever since, claiming he called white supremacist protesters “fine people.” He didn’t, and any honest person who cares enough to be informed knows it.
But Hobbs’ posts attacking Trump supporters didn’t start with the Charlottesville incident. In October 2016, she took a page from her party’s then-candidate for president Hillary Clinton and actually called Trump supporters “deplorable.”
There is so much deplorable at Trump rallies it’s hard to keep track. — Katie Hobbs (@katiehobbs) October 22, 2016
This kind of treatment isn’t new to Trump and his supporters, of course.
Since Trump announced his run for the presidency in 2015, he has been under relentless attack from not only Democratic opponents, but also the mainstream media, the Hollywood and entertainment elite, the biggest names in academia and literally every other cultural institution in American life.
His supporters long ago understood they weren’t getting respect anywhere but among themselves, which alone would go a long way toward explaining the astonishing turnout at Trump’s campaign rallies.
Do Trump supporters have a reason to be suspicious of the results in Arizona? Yes No

But they have every right to expect at least a modicum of fairness from the very elected officials in their state who are charged with ensuring the integrity of the voting process.
In Arizona, however, they are forced to rely on a woman with a documented, undeniable history of calling Trump supporters “neo-nazi” and accusing the president of supporting “freaking Nazis.”
Oh, and they’re all deplorable to boot.
As the gap between Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s votes narrows in Arizona, and as the potential grows for the presidential election to become enmeshed in further electoral fights and courtroom contests over other states like Pennsylvania and Georgia, Trump supporters have the right as American citizens to be able to have confidence that those entrusted to enforce the law are actually doing so — that every legal vote matters.
