There's only been ONE republican to win Popular Vote for President in an election in 21st century

One



There's only been ONE republican candidate to win the Popular Vote for President in an election in the entire 21st century


And not even in the last 2 elections of the previous century

(And, yes, I'm aware that technically 2000 is in the 20th century but the title still holds )

A very clear majority of the voters voted for Biden/Harris. How well do they think they'll be received if they continue to support OrangeLoser's efforts to overturn the clear choice of voters?

The longer each and every one of them continues to play this ridiculous and futile game, the worse it will be for them. The need to put a period on this election, with the exception of the runoffs, and move forward.
