bragging about his electoral totals. In every instance, he boasted that the tally was Trump 306, Hillary 223. This, of course, is false: Hillary got 232, not 223. Just another instance of Trump exaggerating the numbers, as he has done throughout his life--such as how many floors his New York highrises have, for instance. I was surprised the host did not correct it after the montage ended. Denying Hillary nine votes is meaningless, of course, except for what it reveals about Trump's devious character. He thought he could switch the "3" and the "2" and get away with it. So he did.

This is after:
* Russian interference in 2016 (and likely in 2020) for Trump
* the Comey letter in 2016
* Trump was the incumbent in 2020
* Trump was impeached on a quest to destroy Joe Biden in 2019-2020
* Trump dismantled the USPS to eliminate as many mail-in ballots as possible
* all the "normal" voter suppression tactics of the Rs.
Trump: YOU WERE OBLITERATED. Face facts.
