Lately, President Donald Trump has been claiming election fraud in liberal California because they are taking about a week to certify their recent election. Trump complains about election fraud when he loses an election but there is, apparently, no fraud when he wins.
So when California—home of the nation's most creative ballot harvesting, same-day registration experiments, and "find me some more votes" energy—takes a leisurely week to "certify" results, we're all supposed to just trust the process and shut up? But when Trump cruised to victory in 2024 with a massive turnout and fewer of the usual statistical miracles in urban machine precincts, that was obviously clean as a whistle. Got it.
The same crowd that spent years calling 2016 "Russian collusion," 2020 "the most secure election in history" (while fighting every audit and observer request tooth and nail), and every Republican win "threat to democracy" is now clutching pearls because Trump notices when blue strongholds drag their feet counting votes until the desired outcome materializes. How shocking.Funny how "election denial" is only a moral crisis when it comes from the right. When Hillary called Trump illegitimate, when Stacey Abrams played that game for years, when Democrats sued, protested, and invented novel legal theories to stop certification in 2020—it was just "protecting democracy."
Now it's a clown car for noticing the same pattern in reverse. Common sense didn't take a detour. It simply refuses to ride in the "trust us, bro, especially when we're losing" bus anymore.
Are you for real MEPD? California is doing what it's always done for vote counting. I get it, you don't like it. Not your call. Clearly Californians are okay with it and you and your dear leader have nothing to base his claims of cheating on, just like the 2020 federal election.
Again, Russia's efforts to disinform and misinform American voters to help Trump in the 2016 election are well documented and Putin has publicly admitted to them.
Yes, election experts have repeatedly stated the 2020 election was among the most secure in our history, and many audits and recounts have driven that point home with emphasis, leaving no reason to question the results except for the sore loser who got crushed and his cult members who will believe anything he says over the facts clearly in evidence.
Your insanity knows no bounds; most election pundits pointed out that because Trump would lose big in the cities he would likely have a lead in early returns from rural areas, then Biden would surpass him as the large blocs of city votes came in. Many pundits even predicted Trump would try to claim victory or fraud as the logical pattern emerged.
When the Democrats tried to stop certification in 2020? What planet are you on? Maybe you've forgotten the MAGA crowd attacking the Capitol building attempting to do that very thing, or Trump calling around trying to steal votes to steal the election, but sane people haven't forgotten.
To top it all off, ignoring the fact that Trump once again in 2024 tried to claim the election was rigged and there was huge fraud happening...right up until he realized he was going to win. Suddenly there was no fraud and no rigging.
Susan's clown car terminology for what you, Trump and the rest of the MAGA cult members are doing is a far gentler a description than what you deserve.
