Dissecting

 LIKE FOOTBALL GAMES AND WARS, we learn about elections by studying them in retrospect. The most salient fact about the twenty twenty election seems to be that Biden won it by closely winning four key states, Wisc., Mich., Penna., and Ga., and that he won those states with a huge surge of support from African-Americans in four key cities: Milwaukee, Detroit, Philly, and Atlanta. Biden's connection to Obama and Kamala Harris seem to have elected Biden, all other factors remaining the same. Not coincidentally, these are the four states, cities, and precincts in which the never say died Trump organization is concentrating its legal and perhaps illegal efforts to overturn the election results. For Hillary four years ago, the blacks stayed home, perhaps disappointed at the lack of Obama on the ticket; and these four swing states went for Trump. Biden and Harris brought them back out. Biden and Harris, much like Obama, also bring out the racists. Trump was indicted by the federal justice department for racist business practices more than forty five years ago. he was raised that way, and he never changed. During his presidency, he expressed a preference for immigrants from Norway to those from what he called "shit hole" countries, by which he meant African countries. Within weeks after Barack Obama declared his candidacy for president in 2015, secret service protection was assigned to him, which is very unusual, because of the sheer number of threats made against hi, all racist in nature. Black man runs for president, out come the old school white boys. Republicans do not want black people voting in large numbers, because about ninety percent of African-Americans vote for Democrats. That fact is indisputable, and the attempts by republican state organizations in many states to suppress the black vote are obvious, if thinly veiled by justifications of verifying legitimacy. And, in a tragically appropriate way, Trump's final, last desperate attempt to steal the election and remain president is nothing other than an extension of his, the Republican party's, and conservative movement, including the evangelical Christian trump base, and the racism long embedded within it.Trump's final, desperate attempt to steal the election will be to try to convince Republican state legislatures in swing states to appoint Trump supporter electors, and that attempt will either fail miserably, or there will be a civil war in America, one which is perhaps long overdue.
