The Most Important Question About the 2020 Election, by Dennis Prager

By Dennis Prager, Patriot Post - The anomalies: In 132 years, no president has received more votes in his run for reelection and lost. Yet Donald Trump received 10 million more votes in 2020 than in 2016 — and lost... Trump won 18 of the 19 counties both Democrats and Republicans regard as the “bellwether” counties that virtually always go with the outcome of presidential elections. Yet he lost...
