REALITY CHECK: Every one of these actions by the President and members of the Republican Party in a previous world would have been considered outrageous and most a threat to democracy:
1. The President's failing to concede the election after it had been called by the networks.
2. The President failing to concede the election after certification by all 50 states
3. The President entirely fabricating election fraud allegations, and raising millions on the fabrication.
4. The President and his supporters filing numerous lawsuits to throw out 20m votes.
5. 126 Republican representatives supporting a case before the Supreme Court asking to throw out 20 million votes.
6. Senate Majority Leader McConnell failing to acknowledge Biden's victory until Dec. 16.
7. House Minority Leader McCarthy still not acknowledging Biden's victory.
8. 12 Republican senators challenging the election.
9. The President asking his supporters to rally in Washington on the day Congress votes to certify the election.
10. The president pressuring a state official to "find" votes and "recalculate" the election results in Georgia.
