Oakland County 91,078 more Democrat votes, 61,582 in Montgomery
This despite the fact that Trump breaks the record for Republican votes
By 9,719 in Montgomery and 9,338 in Oakland
Population increase can’t possibly account for the number of Democrat votes
A 7,447 increase in Oakland County and 15,115 increase in Montgomery County
You may note that in 2008 Democrats also made some very hefty gains
This is not hard to explain
This is the year Barak Obama wins the Presidency
Clearly, he was a candidate who would inspire many folks who
Never before voted to come out and vote
If I might borrow a line from Mr. Biden
He was a “Clean and articulate” minority candidate
Also note Republican votes decrease in most counties
Indicating voters changed their preferences
So, Barak Obama is a transformative candidate
He changed the political landscape
How can anyone claim that Democratic voters would be inspired
In an environment where BLM, Me Too, LGBTQ, Defund Police, etc..
Which were dominating the party’s agenda
To come out in record number for a 77-year-old white male
Who spent his career in government creating the institutions that they hated
Vice President Harris called him out in debates for his record on race
Now a man who can hardly string three sentences together
Not to mention back when he could, he stole them from others
We are to believe legitimately inspired the absolutely astonishing
Democratic voter turnout of the election in 2020
I thought this was all Fred had to say
And I was about to turn and walk away
When in a voice sounding troubled and worn
With a face that looked tired and forlorn
Fred ended our visit in this way
I pray our Democratic friends won’t continue to bury their heads in the sand
Simply because they hated the Republican man
The facts seem overwhelming and compelling
That our political landscape is smelling
The whole Russia collusion, nothing more than a Democrat delusion
Backed up by main-stream media allusion
The impeachment trials both total shams
The transcript being read, should have halted any honest man
Obstruction of justice when the only crimes committed
Were officials who used knowingly false information they submitted
To gain warrants to spy on Trumps campaign and administration
I have presented the numbers now if there be dissenters
An honest man, from an honest clan, would be a presenter
Who gives a plausible, reasoned explanation, of the number of votes for Biden
Not just scream it’s a big lie, there is no evidence, and continue deriding
All the folks who simply are requesting answers
To election results that to us look like a cancer
