republican morons can be convinced to do anything if you first convince them that a democrat already did it, so it's fair game.

The entire time he was lying about the election being stolen, I wondered about this. Democrats were all "election integrity has never been more secure" but I was like, yeah, sure, all those vote counting machines made by private third party companies couldn't POSSIBLY be tampered with ๐Ÿ™„ (tell that to Bernie Sanders supporters if you want to hear a belly laugh)

drumpf himself voiced that "you won't have to vote again" and "he already has all the votes he needs" in the run-up to election day. musk was literally buying votes in swing states, and now it can be said that all the information he got while running these blatant vote-buying schemes were probably used to cast votes on behalf of people he knew weren't going to vote. This is seen in the fact that in those solid drumpf counties, the down ballot republicans didn't win.

Toward the end of the election cycle, drumpf was phoning it in so hard. Remember when he was at a townhall, took two questions, and then danced on stage for 40 minutes? Remember when his team had to beg him to get back on the campaign trail because he just inexplicably stopped? I optimistically took it for resignation because he faced prison, but it was, in fact, because he already knew the outcome.

Now democrats have put themselves in a mess, because they touted election security like it was some ancient indecipherable machine that couldn't possibly be interfered with, until now??

So the guy that would have gone to prison for attempting to tamper with election results, gets onstage after barely winning an election, and says "gee, my faithful cock holster sure did a great job tampering with these election results."

So now what, immediate impeachment, that then fails? Do we wait till after the midterms to impeach? Or will they tamper with more election results to finally and forever usher in their fascist oligarchy?

WHAT A FUCKING JOKE
