On My Way To Yes

 


“Did Joe Biden win the 2020 election?”

He bit his lip and stammered and finally smiled and said, “Well, clearly, Joe Biden is the President, so-”

“Please, that’s not what I asked you. The question is-”

“Look, he was sworn in on the 20th of January, everybody saw it, so-.”

“Again, that’s not what I asked.”

“Are you trying to tangle me up in some kind of conspiracy theory?”

“With respect, Sir, I’m trying to disentangle you from a conspiracy theory. I’m asking you to formally renounce-.”

“Look, we all know who the President is, so can we move on from-”

“I’d really like to. So, can we settle the question: who won the 2020 election?”

“Look, the election is over and done with. Joe Biden was sworn in as President and that’s all finished, there’s no taking it back now.”

“But did Joe Biden win the 2020 election, yes or no?”

“I already told you he’s the President, what more do you want me to say? Can we move on?”

“We’re almost done here. The question is, who was the legitimate winner of the 2020-”

“What difference does it make who I think-”

“If you’re harboring secret reservations, I think it makes a great deal of difference in your ability to work with our President. So please give us an honest answer: is Joe Biden the legitimate winner of the 2020 election?

“Sir?

“Well, I think this is the first time a member of Congress has walked off our set in the middle of an interview. Coming up next . . . .”
