"Over a year and a half later, in continued defiance of our democracy, both the former president and his political party allies still maintain that the 2020 presidential election was "stolen" from him, despite all evidence β all evidence now β that that is simply false. All the while, this false and reckless insistence that the former president won the 2020 presidential election has laid waste to Americans' confidence in their national elections. More alarming still is that the former president pledges that his reelection will not be "stolen" from him next time around, and his Republican Party allies and supporters obeisantly pledge the same."
