It is clear that we are victims of media tedium as a result of Donald Trump’s insistent, foolhardy and desperate attempts to prove that the 2020 elective was a fraud, a fact that has been disproved over and over again.

All of his suits to call the election into question have been dismissed by the courts. Yet he persists and will likely continue, as he is convinced that he won the presidency.

The most disturbing consequence of his behavior is that the 73,969,249 people who voted for Trump will believe everything he says. This may make President Joe Biden’s job a bit more difficult.
