    In the 2000s, because his TV show, the Apprentice", had never won an Emmy, he had habitually claimed that it was rigged, but unable to produce any evidence

    in Feb 2016, after Ted Cruz had won the Iowa Republican primary,
    • Orange hair cried foul, accusing Cruz of stealing the election, but provided no evidence
    • He followed up with an ultimatum: “Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified,” he tweeted. Trump said later that he’ll likely sue. “
    ​
    in the 2016 presidential election, although trump won the electoral college, he lost the popular votes by ~2 million votes; he claimed that it was due to voter fraud, no evidence was provided

    in the 2020 Federal elections, more Republicans won. But Biden won the presidency decisively---winning both the electoral / popular votes by wide margin---the sore loser claimed election fraud by the Democrats, once again providing no evidence.

    Someone sent me the interview with the fmr Communications Director. She sounds self serving and credit driven, but who isn't in Washington, let alone Trump's Dumpy Cabinet?

    Griffin is a teabagger who got out at the right time to land spots on CNN and the View, which Cons will claim damages her "credibility".

    During the height of The Steal she received death threats (the Best form of Canceling) for coming out clean and saying everyone in the WH, Trump included, knew the election wasn't stolen.

    Lol he claimed the emmys were rigged.

    Apparently the one time the election was actually allegedly "rigged" in American history was when a serial offender of claiming "it's rigged!" when ever he loses a contest or any legal dispute lost a presidential election.

    What a coincidence.

    You ain't American if you ain't ever heard of the story about the boy who cried wolf.

    Literally Trump's entire life is my four year old throwing a fit because he didn't get what he wanted, and/or my two kids arguing over who gets the pink fork and who gets the orange fork.

    If Trump wins in 2024..... watch out

    I don't know who his Attorney General will be, but they will be busy cleaning house in the Justice Department and handing out indictments against everyone from Joe Biden to guys doing unflattering Trump memes on the internet.

    Watch for Kris Kobach to be his choice as Attorney General.

    Do you think it will find any evidence that would have changed the result? Why is this even newsworthy. Yet another check will find Trump lost but nobody who supports Trump, as you do, will be satisfied.
