I assume the Trump cult will lie and find “errors” in the ballots. They will use this as a basis to push for recounts in other states. Most Republicans will never accept that Trump lost. They won’t accept any future presidential losses either.

The Liz Cheney fight has gotten a lot of deserved attention. But the direct fight in Arizona between reality and delusion is a lot more instructive of where the GOP is. https://t.co/phDbB2A0rj

"The recount of Maricopa County ballots is only about casting doubt on the election’s legitimacy, and every Republican knows it. Yet despite this, or perhaps because, very few Republicans will call for it to stop. They should be pressed to explain why."https://t.co/BhXsGDXJql
