Surge Summary: As the President addresses the nation regarding suspicious activity that occurred during an election that has allegedly handed him a loss, we’re being told by anti-Trump forces that “whistleblowers” no longer merit attention. Reports of intimidation against GOP observers while vote-counting was occurring shouldn’t surprise anyone, either – it tracks with a long-standing Leftist M.O of using threats and even violence to produce the results they demand.

President Trump took the unusual step of
addressing the nation yesterday via Facebook. He did so in order to bypass the biased pro-Biden media so he could present his case challenging the election results.
I have no doubt that had he attempted to hold a traditional press conference to lay out these allegations, virtually no media outlets would have covered it. The president addressed specific issues with voting irregularities in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
President Trump said that he was prepared to accept the results of a fair election, but that he didn’t want the election to be “stolen from the American people.”
Trump vowed to take his case all the way to the Supreme Court, just as Al Gore did in 2000, saying, “If we don’t root out the fraud . . . we don’t have a country anymore.”
A Clear Pattern
The president referenced a number of things in his remarks, which I have addressed in the past. But taken together, they present a clear and disturbing pattern.
Let me remind you about the physical and psychological intimidation that GOP poll watchers and observers faced anytime they questioned irregularities. (Here and here.)
That alone is a national scandal! It’s the kind of intimidation that was done to black voters in the Jim Crow South, and there should be zero tolerance for such outrageous conduct.
Yet, in numerous Democrat big cities, left-wing operatives systematically threw out GOP observers one by one. The vote counters, who are government employees, often erupted in applause as the conservatives were shown the door.
We’ve been told over and over for the past four years that we should believe whistleblowers. Well, the election whistleblowers attempting to expose fraud are being doxed and threatened. Why? Because they have the courage to make sure that only legal votes are counted.
This is what you would expect in Moscow or Caracas, not Atlanta, Detroit or Philadelphia. Sadly, this kind of behavior has been encouraged by the Democrat politicians who control those cities.
While shocking, it’s not surprising.
For years, conservatives have been harassed in these “progressive” cities. People who dared to show up to defend historic monuments and attend certain events were physically attacked and denounced as “Nazis” and “white supremacists.”
So it’s no surprise that they are threatened when they volunteer to make sure the election is secure.
For years, the left has bitterly resisted commonsense voter ID laws, even though they are overwhelmingly popular. Why? Because they want cheating to be easy.
And let’s not forget what we just witnessed this summer. These same big city Democrat machines allowed rioters and BLM activists to attack, burn and loot the same small businesses whose owners are now being threatened with jail if they try to keep their business open.
These progressive politicians refused help from the National Guard. They would rather see their own cities destroyed than admit that they needed Donald Trump’s help.
And we’re supposed to believe these same people didn’t cheat on Election Day?
