To Supporters of Joe Biden - Is this the America you voted for?

 If Joe Biden won, and right now it appears he did, congrats to all who supported him.

I'm curious though, if you supported Vice President Biden did you vote for him because you want America to be a country where anyone who disagreed with you and voted against Biden is to be put on a list (https://twitter.com/trumpaccproject)* and, to paraphrase the recent tweet by Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post, be blacklisted from any government or corporate job and not "be accepted into 'polite' society?"**

As I said, just curious if that's what you wanted because that's what is actually happening as a result of Mr. Biden being declared the victor.

Now some might argue that had Donald Trump won, the same thing would be happening. Perhaps or perhaps not. But if it did I'd be speaking out against it because that's not the America I voted for or want.

But Biden won and the question has to be put to those who supported him - is that the America you wanted?

As for this list business, if you believe in that put me on it - I'm not ashamed of how I voted. Want me fired, call my boss and give it a shot. Want me out of "polite society?" If you know me, you know I'm more of an "I've got friends in low places" kind of guy so just tell me which way is out and I'll see myself to the door.


*I pulled just two examples from a number I found without even looking. The first tweet I saw was by Representative Ocasio-Cortes, a Member of Congress who took an Oath to uphold the Constitution, asking if anyone was keeping a list. Almost immediately someone tweeted yes we are and providing the link to the "Trump Accountability Project." There were many other similar views. Try this article - it's a Conservative site so you may believe it is suspect, but the majority of the article is simply copying tweets and quotes from people so you can read those for yourself.

** To be fair, Ms. Rubin's comment was specifically directed at people like myself who have questions about the veracity of the election results. But I have no doubt that if you read the other quotes going around you'll agree with me Ms. Rubin's views are closer to the real reason why that list that's being compiled. I don't think the Trump Accountability Project was set up so we can have a national ice cream social to bring everyone together in friendship and happiness. Ms. Rubin's exact tweet is found here:

As for the election results, I don't know whether to believe any of what's being said but what I do believe is that if we don't investigate these complaints and put them to bed, if people in authority just do what the national media did about the Hunter Biden scandal and put their hands over their ears and go "Lalalala," then Joe Biden's term in office will be subject to the same charges of illegitimacy that President Trump's four years have been and our country doesn't need another four years of that, regardless of who serves as President.
