On a related topic, Trump's accusations of fraud have been so thoroughly convincing to his followers that there is now a movement on right-wing Twitter alternative Parler for Trump loyalists to boycott the Georgia Senate run-off election on the grounds that it's "obviously" rigged, so why bother? Mitch McConnell is now stuck in the untenable position of both supporting Trump's claims of massive vote fraud and telling his own base that no, of course the election isn't rigged at all, go out and vote, we need you.
On Parler, a Pro-Trump Call For Georgia Runoff Boycott Threatens Mitch McConnell's Plan to Restrain Biden
Now that is asinine. If you are convinced dead bodies were voting for the enemy, it makes only perfect sense to respond to that by outnumbering them with LIVING voters. If they are going to flounce simply because they think every vote is rigged (and that's idiotic), then those guys are fools.
