General Discussion

I have no official explanation as to why the party "establishment" did not follow through with hand recounts.

Many of us suspected it was because "they" didn't want to look like the 'other guys". I have believed it was likely the democratic strategists and consultant class and "advisors" were a big part of this "stance".

I have explained several times on this forum. I believe the "other guys" have subliminally employed a kind of psy-ops that I call "reverse I know you are but what I am". These kinds of tactics are effective.

The Dems have been conned into thinking they can't look like the "other guys". People on this forum have told some of us (since the election) that we shouldn't question the election results, because it makes us look like the "other guys".

The term "election denier" has been used to debunk any legit questioning of elections. I posit it is a form of brainwashing.

I do not accuse Harris or Biden of any nefarious intent, if they were convinced not to pursue more info about election results. The tone was established when Gore and Kerry went along, because "we" are the guys who "play nice". I cannot get inside any of their heads. I can have an opinion that I wish they had done more, without accusing any of them of anything nefarious.

I said it before, and I'll say it again - I think the "party machine", handlers, advisors, strategists, and consultants are likely the source of the problem, IMHO.
