Good morning and welcome to this week. We may not be surprised, but we should still be shocked. The Election Results have been clear for more than two weeks. Joe biden defeated donald trump. By recent standards it wasnt that close. More than 6 million votes nationwide. More than triple Donald Trumps 2016 margin in the key mid western battle grounds. Plus wins in georgia and arizona. 306 electoral votes. The same total trump called a landslide in 2016. Faced with those facts, the president and their allies have taken their baseless claims of voter fraud to court. Theyve lost 32 times.
