Are the mid-terms already rigged?

[Playball40]

Drumpf claiming yesterday "he's not worried about the mid-terms" when only a month ago, he was warning his pundits that "if the Dems win, I will be impeached" seems like a rapid turn.

I personally believe the presidential election was rigged (statistical impossibilities and all) but believe Musk had a huge hand in that.

Is it going to happen again?

He is doing this with Iran too. Trump just talks.

I thought he said that he didn't care about the midterms. He's such a stupid, mentally ill man that it's hard to make sense out of anything he says.

That’s a question?
Of COURSE Trump will try to rig every election he can rig this fall.
Why wouldn’t he? It’s not like he can ever be held culpable for any kind of cheating he “officially” indulges.
He can’t be elected again, but if he overthrows the electoral system, that doesn’t matter. And you can bet Stephen Miller’s life that he will have PLENTY of co-conspirators whose lives and freedoms would be jeopardized by any return to lawful governance. That’s how Trump works. He has dirt on every single ass-kissing power-seeker he has brought into his inner circle. They will help him destroy American democracy because the alternative is to let justice prevail, which means jail. He already has the assent of SCOTUS to pursue that path, and it boggles my mind that Dems are not out there shining lights on it. Instead they are pretending that simply calling Trump stupid and illustrating that point with examples, is going to forestall the utter destruction/corruption of our democracy.

If the fascists cannot prevent elections this fall, they will refuse to seat the victors in January.

Wait, what?! We beat on Trump (and rightfully so) for his ridiculous belief about the 2020 election being rigged for the Democrats, but you yourself believe it was rigged in 2024 election for the Republicans and nobody here is even batting an eye? Da fuq?

Because the Democrats had no means to do so, made no implications of having done so, and there is no statistical evidence of this happening, because the Democrats regularly saw to oversight being in place.

There is no need for the majority to rig an election; all they need to do is prevent any rigging and ensure the majority actually makes it to the polls then the majority -- Democrats -- win.

The Republicans on the other hand have had the means to do so (especially with the courts), have implied heavily their intent to rig elections, there is strong statistical evidence of elections being rigged, and the Republicans have regularly fought oversight.

Even if there were no rigging going on under that smokescreen, the existence of the smokescreen and the resistance to oversight is itself a glaring issue needing to be ended and the people holding it up to see consequences.

The fact is that material statements have been made, material actions have been performed, and material consequences have been measured.

In fact, we can point to several actual presidential elections which were, in fact, "rigged" (with respect to the courts throwing out votes because of shit like "hanging chads").

Not to mention... Trump's "accusations" are fairly transparent admissions of his own conduct, accusations made in front of a mirror as it were.

It isn’t like the thought hadn’t crossed my mind. We need people to get out and vote in huge numbers, making it much more difficult to rig or cheat.

Belief? You meant to say 'uncontested in court accusations that led him to amassing a mob that rioted at the US Capitol on January 6th' right?

Well, there will be some Democrats that believe in things that have little data to support it. People believe in false stuff all the time.

The election of Trump in 2024 was most likely assisted greatly with microtargeting minorities via Musk and online advertising. Without that, Trump probably wins a tighter EV race. Statistic wise, the election results corresponded with Exit Polling, which would imply that for the election to be stolen by Trump, he would have had to conspire to fix the Exit Polling as well. Finally, California saw a drop in two million popular votes for Harris. Did California conspire against Harris too?

 

[ZiprHead]

Trump did say his 2024 win would not heve been possible without Elon Musk. That's part of the fuel feeding this thinking.

I have no idea if it's true, but I did read an article shortly after the election by a tech expert who had access to ballot information, that gave reasons why he thought Trump probably lost the election. He said that every swing state had a very high percentage of what is called a "bullet ballot". To clarify, a bullet ballot is one where the voter only votes for the president and nobody else. The guy who wrote the article said it was highly unusual to see so many bullet ballots but of course, it would be hard to prove that someone like Musk had interfered with the election but It was also very odd that the high percentage of bullet ballots was only found in swing states, so who knows if the 2024 presidential election was fair or not? Still, I haven't heard Dems screaming that they won the election. But, it is certainly possible that Musk and company did interfere. We will probably never know.

Nevermind. I just found an that debunked that claim.

Musk paid for microtargeting ads online. He likely used some intel he had and then used AI to determine who and where to get online ads to broadcast (think Arab populations in Michigan, black males in other battlegrounds). There isn't much else to read into him or Musk saying that (and I think it was Elon Musk who said it when he was presumably suffering from Ketamine withdrawal before his drug test and he and Trump were spat'ing against each other online)

 

[Don2 (Don1 Revised)]

Elections have been rigged, possibly since the beginning, by Big Money. When things started in our country this may have been about wealthy White landowners doing the rigging. Now it's more about entrenched oligarchs. Trump and Musk are some of the worst of them. They control the rules, the laws, the government, institutions, the Supreme Court, and the vast, vast majority of the spending. I don't think they will need to rig things beyond that. I mean, no real covert rigging, just the system itself is rigged and we can all observe it as it happens.

These are the unique Trump voters. These are the people Trump got to vote in 2016 that generally didn't vote. These are the people have have been giving pollsters indigestion for over a decade now. They are also why midterms could really suck.

Well, the good thing is that Democrats and Independents are much more excited about voting in the midterms, compared to Republicans and Trump's ratings keep dropping. Inflation is at its highest point in several years, most people are against his stupid war etc. I'm not that worried about the election being rigged. although SCOTUS may make it much harder to vote by mail and some voters might be afraid to go to the polls. So, imo, it will be about how easy it is to vote and voter turnout.

I think as stupid as Trump his, he knows that it takes 60 Senators to remove him from office and he will likely veto any bill the Dems pass if they do win in the Midterms. We are fucked as long as he is president, regardless of how the midterms go.Just my 2 cents.

As I try to remind people, Loper-Bright will be fucking America for 25 or more years to come. SCOTUS is tearing it all down.

Having Trump as President is putting people's retirements at risk with the threat of energy supply related stagflation... after all the other crap he done to ruin America, almost like he is trying to do it on purpose. The Democrats in charge of the Senate would potentially stop SCOTUS appointments and definitely drag to a halt judicial nominations. What I'm more interested in is SCOTUS between now and January 1st, 2027. Trump has created two lame duck GOP Senators. Trump can't afford for them to act like GOP Lame Ducks act like at times.

That isn't exactly supporting the position. 2024 was not stolen. The people weren't happy. The Biden re-election run collapsed on itself, leaving Harris flapping in the wind with almost no tools to work with. The general public consensus on the economy wasn't positive (fair or not). The Dems losing isn't a crazy outcome. The Dems losing to a guy who amassed a mob to riot at the US Capitol is fucking crazy... but that is kind of where we are now. After all, Trump enacted global tariffs... to not even a whisper of dissent from a party that hates tariffs!

 

[Playball40]

My suspicion stems from DT himself, among other things. He said "he had the votes he needed" before early voting started. He told his followers "2024 was the last election anyone would need to vote in.". The had access to balloting systems and hard drives prior to the election - doesn't take computer geniuses to tamper with them. The "maintenance updates" were never retested or inspected in over 40% of counties in the US (Pro V&V). And sweeping every swing state is a statistical impossibility.

I know people want to say "eh, you can't listen to what T says...he's off his rocker" which is dangerous. Just because he blathers on incoherently does NOT MEAN there is no truth in his nonsense. He is an evil, dangerous fascist with evil, dangerous fascists surrounding and protecting him.
