These claims have been made on an ongoing basis for a month -- arguably more than a month, since Trump and his allies spent time before the election promoting the idea that Trump losing is itself de facto evidence of fraud. And they keep being disproven. Over, and over, and over.
At what point is it okay for a publisher -- or whatever we wish to call YouTube -- to say "enough is enough"? Must any and all arguments be endlessly re-litigated on any platform?
