      There is no doubt that he will pull out every stop he can in order to try. This will be the greatest test of our system’s resilience yet I think.

      He’s gonna try, he’s gonna fail just like he fails at almost everything else.

          What last time? He lost in 2020 when he was in charge and tried everything he could to rig it and failed.

          In 2024 he won the popular vote, that wasn’t a rig, it was investigated heavily and the people voted for him.

          All I see is when he’s in control he fails and when he’s not in control everyone forgets and aw shucks him into power.

          We’re in the he’s in control situation which history shows he typically loses in this case.

          He’s so good at shooting himself in the foot.

            2024 was not investigated heavily. It was barely investigated at all. Even that little bit found tons of instances where ballots voted down ticket Democrat, except when it came to the presidential election. Combine that with Musk all but admitting that he had a hand in it and you’d be a fool to think it was squeaky clean.

              I’m sure there was some fraud on all sides as there is every election. If there was enough probable fraud though Harris would have fought it.

              I’ve heard this claim before but without actual proof it’s just conspiracy theory that makes it easier to accept that the American people actually voted for this. I’m pretty sure they did, and now they need to vote against it.

                Harris didn’t fight it not because there was no fraud (Musk straight up admitted there was), but because Democrats believe they can win over Republicans by accumulating “Good Boy” points by being concerned with decorum above all.
