how about this alternate take? Think about the polls...and think about the results

and think back to 2000, and 2008 - and this year.

I have no doubt about who does the cheating. Perhaps we got out the vote sufficiently to neutralize THEIR cheating.

(am I serious? well, yes and no - but to me, the only way that republicans CAN win is to cheat. That WE won fair and square means that they didn't quite cheat well enough!).

And think about how all they do is project. All of their accusations simply tell us what THEY did (or tried to do).

there are a ton of conservatives in suburban and rural America.

I also think the articles saying Trumpers have low social trust (and this refuse to answer polls) is absolutely spot on

What if Biden/Harris got 80 million votes? 85 million? How would we know? I so wish there were a paper trail that could be verified, to put any uncertainties to rest. Not a vapor trail. It has been proven over and over again that electronic voting can easily be hacked, flipping votes.

Seems to me like tRump did not gain much if any GOP support the last 4 years. Many conservatives turned against him. Yet they claim he got way more votes than in 2016. After decreasing approval #'s the past few months, and a dismal final year with a grossly botched pandemic that has killed over 200,000 Americans ad put millions out of work. Sure, his dumb core base stuck with him but you can't tell me he GAINED support after all that.
