    Bravo for calling out the “dangerous & wrong” allegations of election fraud by . Courageous Republicans like Hurd have a historic responsibility now to help protect our nation.

    The Hunter Biden “scandal” is smoke without a fire. Hunter Biden erred. His father has said so quietly but clearly. He should get on with the business of trying to put the country back together after Trump’s ruinous presidency.

    The shared hardship of the pandemic will change America, as surely as did the Great Depression and World War II. The pain is obvious now, but so is the resilience. We’ll be a different country in the future, but maybe a stronger one.
