The 2020 election’s contribution to humanity’s history of gullibility continues through Sidney Powell, a former Trump post-election lawyer. Five days after the election, she appeared on Fox News to say there had been “massive and coordinated” malfeasance to “delegitimize and destroy” Trump votes, and “manufacture” votes for Joe Biden. The Trump administration has offered no intelligible national security rationale for Gabbard’s Georgia grandstanding. They examined all 187 counts in the 64 court challenges filed in multiple states by Trump and his supporters. In Arizona, the most exhaustively scrutinized state, a private firm selected by Trump’s advocates confirmed Trump’s loss, finding 99 additional Biden votes and 261 fewer Trump votes.
