If his win was recognized. He probably won Florida, but they never let the hand recount he was ahead in finish.

Such a fucked up situation. I like to imagine that another timeline had him become president and our government pivoted to seriously focusing more on combating climate change and pressuring the rest of the world to step up. It's not an amazing timeline, but it's one where the world isn't facing imminent collapse of countless ecosystems and fascism didn't take over the US.

This is very true. RIP man-bear-pig victims.

Jan 6th was the second recent coup attempt in the US. The Brooks Brothers Riot was the first, and it was successful.
