On the latest episode of “Armed Lutheran Radio,” host Lloyd Bailey and Pastor John Bennett discussed the results of the Nov. 3 presidential election.
Armed Lutheran Radio describes themselves as “A podcast about faith, firearms, and freedom. We do more than just talk about guns. We talk about self-defense, hunting, politics, and gun rights. But we also keep in mind the bigger picture. What does God’s word say about this?”
Regular contributors include Bailey, Sgt. Bill Silva, Pastor Bennett and Mia Anstine, a blogger, writer, public speaker and hunting guide.
In a humor-filled discussion Bailey and Bennett opened the episode with an examination of the state of the returns.
“Why is it everything else in life is so much easier but counting votes,” Bailey wondered.
“Because if you did that you eliminate the possibility of fraud, perhaps that’s why,” Bennett replied. “When there’s such simple solutions that you and I can think of off the top of our heads without brainstorming with a focus group for 13 days, why can’t the government implement these ideas?”
Bailey retorted, “If I can come up with these ideas on half a bottle of port than surely somebody can figure it out!”
The conversation continued, focusing on specific states and totals and suspicions of voter fraud.
“I think the most suspicions thing that has happened, aside from the reports of Republican election judges being denied access to witness the counting of the ballots,” Bennett observed. “That right there is rather suspect, what do have to hide if you will not allow them to do this?”
He continued, “This has been the case here in Minnesota in Ramsey County, which is where the Twin Cities are, by law all ballots have to be observed being counted by at least one Republican and one Democrat election judge. And yet, Ramsey County has had employees counting the votes in every election for the last 10 years even though a law was passed by the Minnesota House and Senate and signed into law by the Governor that mandated observers of both parties for this. It’s a problem that has happened wide-spread for decades in some places, but it’s not being brought to light.”
Bennett then concluded, “We had alluded to this at the start, but the most suspicions thing in when Wednesday morning at 4 a.m. there is 138,000 ballots dumped in Michigan and 100% of them are for Biden.”
“That’s another thing,” Bailey acknowledged. “Why is it that any time there is a screw up it is always in the Democrats’ favor?”
The two then discussed what may happen should Biden be declared the official winner and become President.
According to Bailey, if Biden wins, “that first year of him trying to get people appointed is going to be (a) circus, unless the GOP decides to revert to their old ‘go along to get along’ BS that they’ve done in the past.”
Bailey later stated “I think the real winner of this election no matter who comes out at the end as the President, I think the real winner of this election is fear. The Left’s fear that Trump is literally Hitler, their fear that they’re losing control of the levers of power and that applies not just to the left but ‘rinos’.”
“You got the swamp’s fear that they are losing control and that they maybe are going to get prosecuted,” he added. “You’ve got the fear from the abortion lobby that they might lose Roe, and the 2A community who didn’t vote for Trump and decided to vote for Jo Jorgensen because Trump’s not pro-2A enough and they are scared that we are going to lose more of our Second Amendment rights. And I think the biggest thing is our fear of COVID, that fear that the media generated that really created this whole mess with the mail in ballots because ‘hey we can’t go stand in line to vote. We can go protest, we can go to WalMart, we can’t go to church we can’t go stand in line to vote. So WE gotta mail in our ballots’ which got us this whole mess.”
