Republicans in congress and in the executive were the ones pushing the conspiracy theories that our democracy was at stake and the election was stolen. Even after their lies had been disproven they continued the farce.

It's disgusting that you try to excuse this by saying it's just fanatics. These fanatics continue to hold power within the party.

Shame on you for the gaslighting. I reject your belief, and you would do well not to try to ascribe other's motivations for their actions.
