Whether there was questionable vote processing, or not, is no longer, apparently, actionable.

We the People need to take action to make Washington work for us and not us for them.

Take advantage of the term limits that exist and don't allow users/losers to stay in Washington when it's time to vote again.

It's Time
By Franklin Price
11/24/2020

It's time that we moved forward
Past the days of Donald Trump
He came and opened up our eyes
And kicked us in the rump

He was not of Washington
Not of pseudo royalty
Fought the swamp, for what it's worth
Worked to make the people see

Was doomed from the beginning
They harassed him from the start
He did well on what he promised
As they were tearing him apart

The media and Washington
Found that Russia would not do
They moved on to impeachment
More expense for me and you

Trump could'nt keep his mouth shut
He fought back at every turn
Not what he said, but how he said it
Something he would never learn

The economy was better
Unemployment rate at best
Stock market breaking records
Then came the Covid test

A third world war was on us
He shut us down to fight the fight
Trump was blamed for all bad things
Even for this newest blight

He organized to get a vaccine
In a record breaking way
And organized for distribution
Now the vote has made him pay

The left encouraged Mail-in votes 
Could be used to change the tide
Used to change the numbers
By the Democratic side

Election night, Trump was ahead,
At two declared he'd won.
Not so fast, the mail's not in,
Not over 'til it's done

Blocked from the counting houses
May not have had a valid count
The President took legal steps 
To assure the right amount

All of this was no surprise
The left had done it from the start
If not underhanded cowards,
Would have stabbed him in the heart.

It's now time that it's all over 
Biden's total count has won
Both popular and College
Trump is over, said and done

It's just as well it happened
For if Trump had come around
The left side would have rioted
Burned buildings to the ground

Hope we recognize the U.S.A.
Just four short years from now
We the people need to make it work
Not to kiss their rings and bow
