we should all start screaming "the election was stolen!" That's not my point. We certainly should be open to discussing the fact that GOP efforts to suppress votes may have worked to alter the result. If we don't recognize that, we are sticking our heads in the sand instead of discussing means to strengthen free and fair elections.

We also should be talking about means to strengthen prohibitions on candidates (or their agents) not currently serving as President, contacting and negotiating with foreign leaders (or their agents). Nixon, Reagan and Trump.
