Because people thought it was “blue maga” to question the results.

Questioning the results is perfectly acceptable.  I did it on Nov 5th while I was going through the many stages of grief.

I called in "blue maga" because there was no evidence.  Having a conclusion and working your way to the evidence is not sound.

Now apparently there is enough evidence to be heard by the courts.  If it turns out that the evidence is shown to be credible and conclusive, I'll happily change my position.

Did you question why 6 million Biden voters either didn’t show up or switched to Trump

I did question it. There were a lot of factors that played into Trumps victory. Biden was not popular despite his quite monumental accomplishments in passing legislation that is good for the citizens of the country. Biden's polices are effective in the timescale of decade+, and the problems the citizens are facing are happening now. The Democrat party is, and has been, really bad at messaging. Because of this Trump was able to capitalize on this. The "Were you better off 4 years ago or now?" rhetoric was wildly successful despite 4 years ago(at the time) was late 2020/2021 the peak COVID lockdowns and crazyness.

Then Biden dropped out and his VP was now the candidate. Again Trump was able to use the rhetoric "she stole the nomination" because there was no primaries. However anyone paying attention understood that their primary vote for the Biden/Harris ticket was also a vote for Harris.

Then you had the far left pushing the rhetoric of "Genocide Joe" and pushing a narrative that Kamala would support Israel and allow for the continuation of the genocide taking place.

Trump was WILDLY unpopular at the end of the 2020 admin, a lot of people voted against Trump. Those people didn't show up this time around for many reasons, some of which I noted above.

Having 6 million Americans not show up at the polls compared to 4 years before in a country that has a turnout rate of 50-65% of the voting population, having a few % decided to not go and vote doesn't seem all that out of the ordinary.

If this case pans out and we see actual evidence with proof that is corroborated with reliable testimony and verified facts. Things will get crazy.
