I think your underestimating how much of this is on mainstream news channels. Watching CNN arguably part of the liberal media you can hear people question the validity of the election an put forth conspiracy theories.

“Sudden discovery of 50 thousand votes”, and suggestions that “Democratic counties reporting last” means they can arbitrarily add votes as needed.

This isn’t some extreme view it’s being endorsed by both elected officials and pundits. I am genuinely concerned that people have forgotten just how fragile democracy is and are trying to score political points at the expense of critical institutions.

That's assuming the losing minority still wants democracy. Maybe they just want King-for-Life Trump.
