It doesn't matter who won, the outcome is the same. All of us should have been intelligent enough to predict this. The only way this would have ended well for the country would have been a landslide for Biden. Not saying Biden is good for the country, but it was the only chance we may have had not to deal with this bullshit.
If Trump won in a landslide, mainstream media would just continue with the non-stop bashing for another four years. He would have been declared an illegitimate president again. The story would be the same as last time "look at the polls, no way he could have won, must of cheated". We would be watching cities burn right now.
If roles were reversed and Trump had the slim lead, the Biden camp would be doing the same thing the Trump camp is doing now. Do you really think Biden would have conceded. The only difference, is the mainstream media would have been digging deep to find each and every "fake" vote for Trump. They would be working overtime. Every story would be assumed true and not debated. No winner would be declared yet.
When the counting is done, Trump will end up with almost 75M votes. That is more that 10M more than Hillary got in 2016. About 12M more people voted for Trump this time around. More minorities voted for Trump this time around.
Did you really think Trump's base would just accept the losing outcome? Did you really think Biden's base would have accepted a losing outcome? On the plus side the scales tipped to the left, so at least we aren't seeing the riots.
This election will never be accepted by half the country, just like the last election was never accepted by half the country. Only difference is at least on the nightly news I won't have to listen to 100% Trump bashing day in and day out trying to scare me straight. It was getting depressing. Everything was bad news. I swear if Trump found the cure for cancer, it would have been spun as bad news.
Come February, everything will be reported as unicorns and rainbows. Life in the old USA will be great. There will be no issues. Fox News will move right center, I don't think they will be as hard on Biden as CNN was on Trump. Social media will be where all the Trump supports go. But they will be banned form the main sites and live on the fringe.
The left has the ball. All these problems that have been drilled into our heads for the past 4 years are now their issue to fix. They have 2 years to convince us they can do a better job. Both the house and senate majorities are so thin, either one can flip in two years.
Finally, it really doesn't matter. Our daily lives will not change that much. Sure we'll probably have to deal with Net Neutrality again. Maybe some type of national tax on Internet service is in the future. Maybe another healthcare shake up. Maybe there will be some half-assed legislation on gun control or immigration, but no real fix. The precedent was set in the last 4 years, every executive action will be taken to court.
But we'll adapt and continue moving on. We always do.

Steve, https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/wayne-circuit-judge-dismisses-lawsuit-against-city-of-detroit-alleging-election-fraud Please read this article and the judge's 13 page ruling on what you claim is fraud. You and trump have been shot down again. Judge's are denying these suits left and right, some of them getting quite heated in their opinions suggesting they shouldn't even be wasting their breath on these baseless claims.
