Attention Trumpanistas: that expression---"Shit happens"? It is more than an expression.

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 165 MILLION people, spread across 50 states, just voted. These votes were cast with the help of many diverse poll workers from both major parties, many of whom were "temps". These votes were then counted as carefully and accurately and promptly as possible. And, all of this was done during a deadly pandemic that had been ignored by YOUR "president"!

Is it really "shocking" or "outrageous" that, here and there, good people occasionally made mistakes? Just as one example, that there were 357 "discepancies" in the Milwaukee votes is a pretty damn good number when you consider that over a quarter million votes were cast there. That is not called "fraud" or "rigging"; it's called "the law of averages", or, if you will, "Shit happens!"

Stop embarrassing yourselves and your nation with your willful ignorance before we change that expression: TRUMP happens!
