About 10:45 Eastern time today, I was listening to CNN on the Sirius radio while loading junk into my truck.
I don't recall the names, however, the guest was a Republican Senator.
The discussion was about elections, voting legislation, and the like.
The host asked the Republican Senator if he would state unequivocally that Biden was elected in a fair, accurate election. The Republican replied by ignoring the question and launching into GOP talking points about "hundreds, perhaps thousands" of Americans are trapped in Afghanistan. I turned it off.
Seems to me any host or moderator should check to see when a Republican guest was elected. If that person were elected in 2020, and if they refuse to state that the Nov 202 election was fair and accurate, then, the host needs to ask why we should accept that person's election as legitimate. "Well, Representative Asshole, if you believe the Nov 2020 election was rigged, and you were elected in Nov 2020, how do we know your election was not rigged?"
I know -- never happened. But we can hope.
My Republican Congresscritter was elected in Nov. 2020. He's holding a town hall in a couple of weeks. He voted against certifying the Nov 2020 results. I think I'll ask him if his election was rigged. I'll likely be escorted out.
