    ''
    An extraordinarily high number of ballots — more than 550,000 — have been rejected in this year's presidential primaries, according to a new analysis

    That's far more than in the 2016 general election and has raised alarms about what might happen in November when tens of millions of more voters are expected to cast their ballots by mail, many for the first time.''


    In Georgia 12k was thrown out in primaries, in Election trump lost Georgia by 11k, but there was far more votes in Presidential Election, so thrown out ballots would be far higher than the 12k in primaries.... in theory .
    Perhaps you should talk to trump's legal team about bringing a case - it sounds like you could be his saviour - millions of Trump cultists will throw money at you - you'll be rich and famous.

    Trump is planning a trip to Alamo, TX. Yup, you heard that right.

    He knows what he’s doing.

    Savages. The guy doing the middle finger takes his helmet off and wears it himself.

    The more footage that emerges, the worse it gets. These are the same people who Trump told he loved.

    Absolute scum.

    Absolute garbage to try to claim victimhood and excuse actions of the terrorists this week.

    They believe the election was stolen from them because they have been consistently lied to about it, Trump was claiming even beforehand that if he lost it would only be by fraud. Trump campaign had ample opportunity to provide evidence in state cases but they didn't have anything significant enough that would overturn the results. Trump's team was lying to his supporters that there was evidence and then telling the truth in court, that they had no evidence - hence why they lost nearly 70 cases.

    Despite all the failed cases they still wouldn't accept it so why would they suddenly accept it after another investigation? Again, Trump's core point from pre election was that he couldn't lose aside from fraud, you're naive to believe that was going to suddenly change (he had no issues with committing election crime himself by pressuring officials to 'find votes')

    The fact that people believe lies doesn't mean they should be investigated, unless you're now calling for a 'flat-earth commission' and 'the earth was created 2000 years ago commission' - two things that a sizeable number of Americans believe.

    Every time I hear from one of you guys about Russia getting Trump elected I think you sound exactly like these flat earther guys, completely Brainwashed but as long as these people are being circle jerked by threads like this and Twitter they are happy.

    This is from the executive summary of the Department of Justice investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election:

    The Russian government interfered in the 2016 presidential election in sweeping and systematic fashion.

    You should read it and also read the intelligence community report. You might learn a thing or two.

    They were actively helping Trump get elected. That has been confirmed by Republican Senate. The flat earth stuff has no evidence whatsoever for it. They aren't comparable and I'm sure you're aware of that.


    But sure, do whatever you need to do to avoid coming to terms with the fact that you support a man and an ideology that has led directly to storming of the US Capitol building and to the death of a cop by his mob in his name.

    I'm sure he has been informed of this multiple times and yet he keeps making this claim. Assuming good faith, how can that be explained?

    Aren't you the guy claiming large scale election fraud with no proof? That sounds very like a flat earther... Election interference by Russia is a categorical fact.

    Every time I hear from one of you guys about Russia getting Trump elected I think you sound exactly like these flat earther guys, completely Brainwashed but as long as these people are being circle jerked by threads like this and Twitter they are happy.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Counsel_investigation_(2017%E2%80%932019)#Report_sent_to_Attorney_General
    The report concluded that Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election did occur "in sweeping and systematic fashion" and "violated U.S. criminal law."[513][514]

    The first method detailed in the final report was the usage of the Internet Research Agency, waging "a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton".[17] The Internet Research Agency also sought to "provoke and amplify political and social discord in the United States".[515]

    The second method of Russian interference saw the Russian intelligence service, the GRU, hacking into email accounts owned by volunteers and employees of the Clinton presidential campaign, including that of campaign chairman John Podesta, and also hacking into "the computer networks of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and the Democratic National Committee (DNC)". As a result, the GRU obtained hundreds of thousands of hacked documents, and the GRU proceeded by arranging releases of damaging hacked material via the WikiLeaks organization and also GRU's personas "DCLeaks" and "Guccifer 2.0."[12][516][517]

    So, while it was not conclusively shown that Trump's team knowingly colluded with Russia to help win the election, the findings were that Russia did interfere. We don't know if Trump was knowingly involved or not, as Mueller's report said Trump was neither indicted nor exonerated, although there is that time he directly said, "Russia, I hope you're able to find those 30,000 emails that are missing". He couldn't even just quietly hope that, and only say something like he hoped the justice dept. found them instead.

    To sum up, the idea of foreign interference in the 2016 election had enough credence to garner a full federal investigation. The accusation that widespread vote fraud won Joe Biden the 2020 election has lost at least 60 court cases so. Some were dismissed 'with prejudice', which is a nice way of saying, "GTFO with your bullsh*t".

    Evidence was produced in the form of witnesses, the hard evidence was in looking at the ballots, but NONE were looked at.

    We only had stories, and this was not enough in a court of law. A girl can be raped, but without hard evidence it's just a story, doesn't mean she's lying.
    Counting the same ballots over and over won't show what the witnesses claim was going on. I would have loved for TRUMP to be proved wrong, but NO WAY was he getting access to these ballots to audit them, NO WAY.
    That's so strange, they should have been happy to prove him wrong.


    In primaries 600,000 ballots were thrown out, in election, none? come on.

    That ship sailed away with 60 court cases, pointless trolling at this stage.

    When Trump can only be defended with lies, delusion and alternative facts, maybe, just maybe that's because his conduct really is so bad that he can't be defended with facts or actual reality.

    What's he looking to get from it.

    Joy in Liberty a mysteriously funded conservative website paid for a lot of people to travel to the ‘fight the steal’ event on Jan 06

    Lots and lots of Qanon nutters had their flights and accommodation paid for by a shady conservative group that cover the expenses for rentacrowd (as long as they’re right wing conspiracy theorists)

    And despite been long debunked Trump was still repeating this one on election day, along with rubbish like there been more votes than people.

    Most on here obviously don't believe a single thing that Trump says but unfortunately there are millions who believe everything unquestionably. Even an honest, realist, partisan like BorneTobyWilde seemed to fall for it without the slightest suspicion or due-diligence.

    This has gone so far beyond typical political bluster, Trump may not have explicitly incited violence but his rhetoric, mixed with the repeated lies radicalised his followers.
