Isn’t that last paragraph basically describing the 2000 election?

Yea but it was a month long dog and pony show.

In the scanrio I'm suggesting it's more like 2020 where any objective observer agrees Biden got the EC votes to win but 40% of the country just says "nuh uh" and dems still end up agreeing to give up.

But republicans are usually smart enough to give dems a boogeyman to point to and blame for their loss because they understand liberals ideal state of existence is losing while claiming a moral victory.
