For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

So if they lose, it was election fraud. If they win, then it must be in spite of that same fraud then, right?

Either way, I'm not expecting to see evidence of the fraud. Sad.

Evidence? You don't believe that Joe's friend's cousin saw someone dumping ballots into a Yugo? /s

That's what it was in 2016 too, there was a thing with Trump saying CA had millions of illegal votes for Hillary and set up a team to prove it. Oddly those findings weren't really talked about, easy to drown out with the noise he caused every single day of his term. Like there was something with Ivankas trademarksc(patents?) in China and the Moscow tower, I can't even remember which one he used to down our which anymore.

There's a decent chance I forgot which scandels it was in reference to but there was even an article about how he tweeted something to change the news focus.

I expect to see evidence of the fraud. Lots of republicans will wind up arrested for it just like the previous two elections

Why do they even bother to vote if they don't believe in it. They do vote, because they do believe it counts, because they know the conspiracies are full of shit.

Sounds like they are doing far worse than they would like there. Here in Oregon, we have people setting drop boxes on fire. You think he gives a shit about that? I haven't heard him mention it. Come to think of it, I haven't heard Kamala say anything about it either, but that's beside the point.

They are slipping in PA and the only recourse, since a viable message and sustainable platform isn't available, is to sow the seeds of doubt. I don't know what his base of PA voters might think about wasting their time voting if its all rigged, like he claims; Perhaps his plan might blow up in his face. No harm for the democrats to keep letting him run his mouth. I mean, apart from the stochastic terrorism thing.
