As Trump Rails Against Loss, His Supporters Become More Threatening – The New York Times
With a key deadline passing Tuesday that all but ends his legal challenges to the election, President Trump s frenzied campaign to overturn the results has reached an inflection point: Certified slates of electors to the Electoral College are now protected by law, and any chance that a state might appoint a different slate that is favorable to Mr. Trump is essentially gone.
Despite his clear loss, Mr. Trump has shown no intention of stopping his sustained assault on the American electoral process. But his baseless conspiracy theories about voting fraud have devolved into an exercise in delegitimizing the election results, and the rhetoric is accelerating among his most fervent allies. This has prompted outrage among Trump loyalists and led to behavior that Democrats and even some Republicans say has become dangerous.

PDT’s claims of election fraud aren’t *entirely* baseless. Some of his supporters are, however, speaking of invoking the Insurrection Act or staging a military coup. Both of those are presumably in the extreme minority. But it’s still disturbing. The NYT and other legacy media outlets are just totally in the tank for Biden. Biden does show alarmingly enough signs of being, what, bought out by the CCP? Just discounting the threat? Biden transition is mentioning Pete Buttigieg (?!) for ambassador to China. That is a *very* bad sign. (Unless it’s so bad it’s good?) Not much we can do except make sure our passports are in order.
