Columnists like Ruth Marcus, EJ Montini, and the New York Times Editorial Board have rightly relayed that the American People should remember those that supported the indicted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's ridiculous motion to invalidate the electoral results in four states that Joe Biden won.
Not because they are heroes. They are not.
Not because they were pursuing a righteous cause. There was none.
Not because they had a strong legal case with large amounts of evidence of voter fraud in those states. They did not and all Supreme Court Justices wisely concluded that the Paxton motion had no merit and jettisoned it at the first opportunity.
These columnists and undoubtedly others in the mainstream media sphere want the American People to remember these people because they put themselves on the record for putting dictatorship and election theft over the Republic and Democracy with their embrace of the false electoral claims of the twice Popular Vote Loser, Chief Executive Demagogue, and the Aspiring Duce currently residing in the White House.
People need to remember that 126 Republican members of the United States House including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Minority Whip Steve Scalise, Arizona's Andy Biggs and Debbie Lesko, usual fringe Black Shirt suspects Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz, and 17 Representatives from those four states that Biden won, chose Trump and political self-interest over the Constitution and the Nation.
The People in the 17 states that went along with Texas need to remember the names of their State Attorney Generals that supported Paxton's outlandish legal premise.
The people in the Grand Canyon State need to remember that State Legislators like Arizona's Nancy Barto, Frank Carroll, John Fillmore, Mark Finchem, Travis Grantham, Anthony Kern, Steve Pierce, Bret Roberts, Kelly Townsend, Sylvia Allen, Sonny Borrelli, David Gowan, and David Livingston put disinformation over actual election results and state law.
It would be interesting to see how many of these individuals decide to pursue this divisive course after the Electoral College formally elects Joe Biden as President on Monday, December 14, 2020.
Ruth Marcus is right when she writes in her column that these individuals should be ashamed of the havoc and dissension they have brought on the country.
While, as she admits, the great majority that subscribed to this travesty have no shame, the people should remember the names of all of them when these individuals run for office again in either 2022 or 2024.
They do not deserve to be in a position that could steer public policy and they should be voted out.
Remember Remember.
