The problem is that the MSM painted a completely different narrative. They had rigged polls that said Biden was going to win with 400 electoral votes and the narrative was that Trump had no chance. They controlled big tech, which is 99% democratic, and directly linked all of the fraudulent fact checking websites to target right wing media and brand it as misinformation. For example, Google's algorithms bypassed all traditional SEO to directly crawl "fact-checks": https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/factcheck and deep link stuff. Facebook/Twitter did similar things.

The left was very well organized to take on Trump, but it feels like to me they have been preparing since 2016.
