It may have been remarkable then, but in the last four years we've come to know that hypocrisy is just completely ingrained in these people. It's a way of life. They don't notice or acknowledge it. Or they can spin up some reasons why "it's different" like McConnell driving the bulldozer that pushed through SCOTUS confirmation in record time while twisting himself into a pretzel to explain why it's nothing like it was with Merrick Garland. For these people, hypocrisy is "a feature". It's so woven into the fabric of their being that it practically does not exist. And the ends justify the means. Biden should be demanding a recount in Florida, Alaska, and the Carolinas. Maybe Texas, too.

| quote: Lawyers for the Trump campaign have dropped a lawsuit seeking a review of all ballots cast on Election Day after finding that the margin of victory for the presidential contest in Arizona could not be overcome.
The Trump campaign filed the lawsuit on Saturday alleging some voters were confused on Election Day and feared that their ballots were not counted if the vote tabulation machines classified their ballots as overvotes. They were seeking a hand review of any ballots flagged by the machine as overvotes alleging it could result in thousands of votes for President Donald Trump.

Has Achieved Nirvana
| quote: State GOP lawmakers in Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin have all said they would not intervene in the selection of electors, who ultimately cast the votes that secure a candidate's victory. Such a move would violate state law and a vote of the people, several noted.
“I do not see, short of finding some type of fraud — which I haven’t heard of anything — I don’t see us in any serious way addressing a change in electors,” said Rusty Bowers, Arizona’s Republican House speaker, who says he’s been inundated with emails pleading for the legislature to intervene. “They are mandated by statute to choose according to the vote of the people.”
The idea loosely involves GOP-controlled legislatures dismissing Biden's popular vote wins in their states and opting to select Trump electors. While the endgame was unclear, it appeared to hinge on the expectation that a conservative-leaning Supreme Court would settle any dispute over the move.
