The idea that Steve Scalise is some right wing nut with his hair on fire about Election 2020 is crazy

Scalise thinks several states did not follow their election laws existing at the time and that state legislatures were by-passed in the process of changing such laws, which is prohibited by the constitution,  in the fit of coronavirus hysteria gripping the country in 2020.

These things are demonstrable but blacked out by the powers that be, which could care less about following Article 1, Section 4.

Scalise has a good voting record when it comes to immigration issues, but he can hardly be described as Trumpian. His voting record has helped maintain the status quo on spending and he is frequently bemoaned as just another RINO.

He joined with most Republicans after all, including Liz Cheney, to pass a resolution condemning the QAnon wackos in October 2020.

The effort by the media to make Republican reasonableness look radical is outrageous, but that is where we are.

The problem for Scalise and for those who make the same argument, however, is that no Republican state legislature had the gumption post-election to do anything about it. They all acquiesced, just as they had acquiesced to allow state bureaucrats to whom they had delegated authority usurp their prerogatives in the first place.

This abdication of responsibility is what is killing the country, all over the place. Into the vacuum sweep the radical forces which would overturn everything.

We're screwed.
