Unbroken: JD Vance and the Coming Revolt

Will you accept defeat at the polls? JD Vance has a hard time of late answering this question. He won’t answer it. He doesn’t know what democracy is, and he’s already plotted in his mind with Trump to overthrow it. The election in their minds doesn’t matter. It, does, not, matter. He now lives under a reality where he has been broken by Trump so that he will not accept defeat.

The question Vance has been asked repeatedly and repeatedly, and continually, over again, in each interview several times, each time: Will you admit that Trump lost the 2020 election? He’s not being asked about the 2020 election. He’s being asked if he could admit defeat to something that will happen. He is being asked about his current state of mind.

The 2020 election has already happened. In case you didn’t know. In fact, everybody knows that Biden got sworn in the office. Or not everybody. Trump never conceded defeat yet. To this day. He did not show up at the swearing in ceremony of Biden to show he was defeated. He did not say he conceded. The media told us he did. My family and friends when I brought this up said, oh no, Trump conceded. They repeated the media. Trump did not. The media told us he conceded the defeat. Trump never did. Check out his statements yourself from the post-election period. You won’t find one, ever…
