Ha! Well I'll take unintentional typos over the drivel in that article any day of the week.


So far he's made the right call though. Note when it was written, and what has happened since.


Predicting that somebody stupid would do something stupid after the last election does not make one Nostradamus.

He also claims that Trump is refusing to leave and is leveraging the military to facilitate that. That's bunk.


It's bunk because the military didn't play ball, not because it wasn't tried.

What's mostly bunk here is that you think that this is behind you and I am not willing to accept that until we have seen one, and preferably two transfers of power without mishap, preferably in both directions.


Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. You're claiming the sitting President tried to mobilize the military to prevent a transfer of power. Do you have any evidence of that?

Claiming there was fraud in the past election, that the election was stolen, or that the results should not have been certified is not mobilizing the military. It's not even illegal, it's part of the constitutional process.

Hell, some Democrats did exactly that to Trump in 2017. Even the Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi herself disputed the results in 2005 yet she now claims that anyone else repeating her own words is an insurrectionist.


Ok.
