here are the only believable parts of that op ed...
"Let the Transition Proceed
The more divisive our politics, the more important it is to respect the fundamentals of constitutional democracy. Two tenets are critical: elections in which legal votes are counted honestly and the peaceful transition of power. It is appropriate to pose legal challenges to an electionâs integrity, but not to impede the transition.
Two weeks after Election Day, President Trumpâs team hasnât presented compelling evidence against Joe Bidenâs victory.
The main reason to facilitate the transition is to show that amid deep political division, we can rely on constitutional norms, procedures and institutions. The Trump campaign has every right to litigate evidence of fraud, malfeasance or error. We should care about that evidence, even if it doesnât change the outcome, because it undermines the honest elections on which democracy depends. Anyone who corrupts them should face serious prison time. Itâs far more serious than bribing your kidâs way into college.
With the country so angry, divided and suspicious, it is vital that the incumbent administration do everything it can to assist the potential winners in case they prevail, as seems likely. While the Trump campaign presents its evidence in court and watches the recount in Georgia, it should give the Biden transition team the office space it needs, begin briefing its national security team, and provide assistance to ensure a smooth handover. This demonstration of good faith is less a legal requirement than a constitutional norm. Reasserting it now would strengthen our strained public institutions. They need it more than ever."
the rest is obviously manna for hungry con subscribers to this usually centrist media with right leaning opinion editors...
