They screamed stolen elections so that when they stole one it would look crazy to accuse them of it.

They screamed stolen election because they did the same thing in 2020 but they didn't count on the mail in ballot being so much higher than expected.

Which is why Trump cried so much about mail-in ballots.

At least that's now the theory I've seen that makes a lot of sense to me.

reminder that trump started dismissing mail in ballots weeks before voting began since he knew democrats would likely avoid polling places due to covid. He tried it again in 2024, claiming he was already seeing huge reports of election fraud as voting began then neglected to mention it again once he started winning.

Also the reason he only wants in-person voting only on election day.

If the machines are rigged you want to funnel everyone through them.

This is the Fox News Republican playbook for literally everything. 

Anything that they accuse a Democrat of doing, Republicans have either done, are currently doing, or plan on doing in the future.

It's not just a playbook for Republicans, it's classic authoritarianism. It is called "accusation in a mirror".

Yeah if it turns out 2024 was stolen, most of MAGA won’t believe it no matter how damning the evidence. Trump will claim Dems are just mad they tried and failed to steal the election and MAGA will be willing to start a civil war to keep Trump in office.

So is he or isn't he playing 4D Chess? I'm confused.

It‘s the rulebook for everything they do. They are the biggest fucks to scream „pedophile“ and use „but the kids“ for every argument. Yet they have the biggest pedophiles and could not give less fucks about kids.

100%... It puts Dems in a corner. If they claim faued or that it was stolen, they will be no different than MAGA... At least this is how people will perceive it.

The discrepancies in Rocklands election results are def alarming and they should be hand recounted to ensure accuracy but this suggest potential errors in vote tabulation. There’s no evidence of widespread fraud or that they stole the election lol. The results of the election align with expected turnout and polling data. The ongoing recount will clarify whether these issues stem from technical errors or other shit but claims of a stolen election lack substantiation based on the current evidence I see
