If you're a Democrat it's perfectly OK to be an election denier if Republicans win. if Democrats win its the most secure election in the history of the world. And, it's a good thing cuz they're right. There are many examples of this heroic behavior. Hillary Clinton, Stacey Abrams, Pramila Jayapal, and Jamie Raskin immediately come to mind.
With the exception of President Biden and LBJ, Hakeem is the type of candidate the Democrats have always won with in my lifetime. Young, charismatic, relatively unknown so minimal baggage candidates like Kennedy, Carter, Clinton, and Obama. He would be a good choice for them and could very well win IMHO. I believe that's why they put him in as Speaker of the House. Getting him a little pub before his 2024 run.
As to the Is it art question, it definitely is IMHO. You might not like it,but it certainly is art. What about it would make you wonder if its not art?
