There are currently two, seemingly-opposite calls: "Stop the Steal", and "Count the Votes" (slowly becoming "Count the Legal Votes"). It is starting to create a messaging problem as the nuances are being willfully ignored by those with a vested interest to take down Trump (so, about 90% of the political, cultural, academic, and media world).

It needs to be hammered home that Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin are still counting votes that violate their states' statute about ballot counting. Meanwhile, Nevada and Arizona are counting the election day votes, so they are in compliance with the statute and should not be stopping the count.

A legal win must be accompanied by an optics win.

There is no confusion. COUNT THE LEGAL VOTES AND STOP COUNTING VOTES SUBMITTED AFTER ELECTION DAY. You should already know at this point that whatever we say is twisted severely by the left. They know exactly what we mean.

I know it, but think of the regular, largely-uninformed (or even misinformed) voter; they're hearing both at the same time but without the nuances. We shouldn't trust the media to convey the messaging, so there needs to be a grassroots push to deliver this information to the general public.
