LOL. Mhhm. Well these "feelings" got Trump impeached and now he's facing civil trials.
Serious Question:
Would the riot at the Capitol on 1/6/21 have occurred, if Trump had handled losing the 2020 election like a mature adult, instead of like a spoiled child?
For one thing, the Trump campaign did not object to those rule changes, which were put into effect to accommodate voters at high-risk of becoming critically ill with COVID, until after the election. They certainly had chances to. The Trump campaign could have filed suit to block those changes. They did not. That is enough to lead one to believe that they knew they were going to lose the election anyway, and wanted to have a ready-made excuse for the defeat after the election.Only an idiot minority gives a sh!t about 1/6. Because election rules were changed to by people other than the legislatures in the battleground states to massively increase the number of mail in ballots and the removal of safeguards to ensure these ballots were valid, the 2020 election will never be legitimate.

For another thing, there were safeguards in place to ensure that mail-in ballots were valid. There is no proof of widespread fraud significant enough in nature to change the outcome of even one state.
The insurrection label is based on the definition of the word.Those were based on facts. The insurrection label is based on feelings
Obviously, Georgia's Secretary of State (Raffensperger) doesn't agree with you.While I cannot speak to other states, Georgia's mail-in ballots were questionable. My aunt, who used to live in Cedartown, but has resided in South Carolina for a couple of years, received two mail-in ballots for the general election. She tossed them. Assuming that she was not the only one who received multiple ballots, while I am sure some Republicans may have signed and returned them, Democrats have a well-established reputation (Chicago anyone?) for voting shenanigans. Remember, virtually all dead voters are Democrat.
I suspect what happened is a lot of people voted for Joe Biden in Georgia who had no idea they voted or knew who they voted for period. When those ballots were mailed, the Dems were well prepared and made sure those ballots were collected and voted. Hats off to them! The law allowed it and they took advantage.

The election isn't invalid, just because you have hurt feelings.

Shenanigans aren't exclusive to one side. See Donald Kirk Hartle from Las Vegas, Nevada.
Based on that definition we've had a few insurrections in the past couple years. Only one seems to need an inquiry though which is really weird huh?The insurrection label is based on the definition of the word.
Definition of insurrection | Dictionary.com
The 1/6 rioters were trying to disrupt the formal certification of the electoral college vote. That constitutes a resistance to a pending regime change.
They would have a case to make, if they had filed suit to block those changes from being implemented before the election. The fact is, the Trump campaign did not object to those changes until after they had lost... and so their complaints now come across as sour grapes.It's unfortunate that the GOP now frowns upon people participating in democracy.

Trump accuses Cruz of 'fraud,' calls for new Iowa electionI'd be fine it were only sour grapes. But sour grapes morphed into an all out assault on Democracy with fake electors, an insurrection on January 6th and the continued perpetuation of the Big Lie.
