Quite a lengthy response. But as someone as verse in politics as you, perhaps you can explain why Trump's legal beagles did not provide any of that vast amount of evidence or witnesses in court? Keep in mind, many of the judges that dismissed those dozens of fraud lawsuits were actually Republicans nominated by Trump. They followed the law, go figure. Even the DOJ, with Trump loyalist Bill Barr as AG admitted no significant fraud. Again, you can grandstand, flash wads of affidavits, scream fraud and lie (plus fart in Rudy's case) all you want on tv, but not in a US court of law. Put it this way, if you're going to use the courts to overturn an election you lost, you still must follow the court's rules. And US court's require both facts and truth. It's not enough that you believe 100% that there's fraud, you must actually be able to prove it. That's the law. Rudy is a former US Attorney from the Southern district of NY. He's understands the law better than most. But he chose not to admit the evidence, which strongly suggests that the evidence was either too weak or non-existent. That's not a controversial conclusion. it's common sense.
I do agree with you to a very small extent that when it comes to partisan politics, wrong doing seems to only apply to the other side. It's both shameless and vindictive. The MSM has certainly not helped matters after becoming for-profit centers, which means intentionally tailoring news to attract viewers that like what they want to see/hear. It's gotten much worse in recent years with extremist groups finding unfiltered/unregulated homes on social media, and then toss in the foreign meddling as insult to injury. At the end of the day, there should only be one set of facts, and with the current ugly partisan mess we're in, whether it's liberal or conservative, facts seem to have become unimportant That's very sad.
As far you worrying a Biden administration will destroy the country? Amusingly the concerns you have about Biden are the same as the ones Dems have argued about Trump over the last 4 years, and the RNC argued about Obama before that. Your just showing your partisanship. The reality is neither political party is going to disappear any time soon. So the sooner both sides begin listening to each other and work together instead demomizing each other and focusing on dirty tricks to gain/retain power, the sooner things will improve. I think "We the People" is still there, but we need to put country before party. I'm afraid our current generation of voters are very set in partisan ways to change, so I'm hopeful the next generation will do better than we have.
