    Even if I consider election tampering a vague possibility, they’d never get away with it if that’s all it was. They likely aimed for a combination of factors, between misinformation, voter suppression, and/or vote tampering. Plus, people have said that public behaviors in many red states are that people are “pleased” with the result. This could be a vocal minority, but it’s hard to judge for sure.

    I’m also not going to link to Greg Palast as “proof” of tampering - just that if we were under a responsible administration, there’s enough circumstantial oddities I’d want the election investigated for certainty (just as we did in 2020 even after Biden won).

      They did do a variety of things.

      • limited the dems to 45% on the tabulators after 500 votes
      • suppressed enough votes that they would’ve lost if it weren’t for the massive voter purges and other legislation they shoved through
      • algorithmically induced psychosis in 20% the population

      If any one of these had failed they would’ve lost.

      Just this weekend I had to overhear a conversation about how terrible trans people are, and how good it was that trump is doing things about it.
