Donald Trump Can Never Lose - WSJ Editorial
Donald Trump did the country—and himself—a favor by canceling the press conference he had planned for Jan. 6. But the press statement he released instead on Thursday underscores that the former President will never admit that he lost the 2020 election, no matter the cost to the country or his supporters.
Mr. Trump’s statement throws out a farrago of “questions” about the election intended to imply massive fraud that he could never prove in court, in Congress or in subsequent state audits. He asks how Mr. Biden could lose “27 out of 27 ‘toss up’ House races, but somehow miraculously receive the most votes in American history with no coattails?”
That’s supposed to sound suspect, but all it proves is that election forecasters did a terrible job predicting which House races were “toss ups.” They predicted Democrats would enlarge their House majority by winning conservative House districts. The election was close, so traditionally conservative House districts went to the GOP. There’s no reason to expect that the party that failed (albeit narrowly) to win the House, as the GOP did, should win the Electoral College.
That’s the pattern of Mr. Trump’s changing election claims—superficially intriguing but readily explicable by the data, which we’ve reviewed in these pages many times. Yet the former President still accuses Democrats of perpetrating “the real insurrection, which took place on November 3rd.”
This rhetoric from Mr. Trump cost Republicans the Senate in Georgia and led many of Mr. Trump’s supporters to be prosecuted for breaching the Capitol on Jan. 6. Mr. Trump will not change, and Republicans who think a campaign to vindicate 2020 is the key to victory in 2022 will lose again.

We 'do' tend to look at extremes on both sides and assume that those segments will determine what happens next. It's as if we're all picking our own 'silent majority' groups and figuring that they will make it all happen.
I feel for the pollsters: Who do you believe - the ones jumping on every question and issue, the ones against every question and issue, or, the 'silent' ones.
We have to have faith that we can find a 'majority' in all of those mixes - but we CANNOT take a single vote for granted. We must point out the lies, take the liars and cheats to court, and GET OUT THE VOTE!!!!
And hopefully with very great results that show that the voters are not fooled by the "ORANGE FOOL" and his "Toadies" - but have accepted their responsibility and duty to be serious citizens that will help determine the future of what we want as the "United States of America."
