Recounting votes is an irrelevant and wasteful activity. It is, except in small local elections. I imagine that the only reason that recourse is available it to appease the folks who lost, make them feel comfortable that they really lost, help them deal with the grief, be able to say everything that could be done was done. No one anticipated the kind of challenge that Trump presented. They assumed candidates were civilized and respected the institutions, at least enough not to be so ungracious as to make a big stink. It is a stolen election in my view I get that you believe what you believe. But you still haven't given any data. In the absence of that, the default is that the official verdict is the truth. There is only one part of this issue where I see you might have some justification. It is the point that Justice Thomas made, the changes made before the election in response to the pandemic. You haven't engaged on that. You've been wasting your time and ours fussing about ballots in suitcases and Zuckerberg. I brought it up and invited you to engage. You said you didn't have time. Much more satisfying, I guess, to rant about crap.
