From an international perspective, there have been a hugely negative response to what is perceived as the Republican Party's attempts to invent allegations of electoral fraud where none actually took place, as well as refusal to accept the result of the election pretty much up until Biden's inauguration (with dozens of Republicans holding elected positions continuing to spread lies regarding the legitimacy of the result). As the Republican Party itself continues to allow prominent members of their own party to try and undermine democracy, many view this as a dangerous precedent.

In the eyes of many, including myself, you can either support the democratic process or support the Republican Party, who seem to have nothing but contempt for the votes for millions of Americans.
