    Irony has always been a supreme form of comedy.


    The best part of this election is watching Trump and his team try and sow chaos into the election through litigation. It's been so predictable for weeks and weeks now. And watching people just blindly fall for this exact thing we knew would happen.

    Trump has done many things to get himself to the point to even be able to try and litigate this thing. None of them have been anything but telegraphed and called out along the way. Slowing the mail to try and get ballots to be sent late. Telegraphing the fact that he'd declare victory early. Telegraphing the fact that he had lawsuits ready to file in states, alleging election fraud before ballots were even counted. Suing states to delay mail in votes being counted until later. Sowing doubt into the validity of mail in ballots themselves. Rushing the Supreme Court pick.

    I could go on and on.


    But why irony?


    Ironic because what the Trump team has done is literally the political equivalent to the BLM and Antifa protests that he has been so staunchly opposed to these past few months.



    To that, and to his Trumpsters, I say, sit back and let the votes fall where they may. Reap what you have sown. Let's see how good the crop yield is.

    The fact is the only other time in recent history someone rioted and it led to a power grab was when Roger Stone and all the other right wing cranks organized the Brooks Bro’s riot which led to the recount chaos that put W in office.

    Now you see what’s happening and it’s obvious they are using the same playbook. I called it weeks ago that they’d do the same. Only thing I got wrong was that it would be PA and didn’t see Arizona being a hot spot. The rioting causes slow downs, creates doubts, and rattles the workers inside who then make mistakes which leads to the courts having cover to interfere.

    So yeah the fact is the same people who cry about Antifa or BLM are the same people who through rioting and corruption are likely to get a second illegitimate president in power to prop up their minority activist fascistic agenda.

    Speaking of irony... could you imagine being other foreign powers looking at what is going on here and ever respecting what we say or do?

    The difference is that Trump supporters are more heavily armed than BLM. I will say it again. If I'm the governor of PA, AZ, NV and GA I would be doubling the security around the vote counting centers.

    In Nevada, they did. I assume that the states still being counted have. trump's been doing everything short of having Barr hand out weapons and ammunition to his rabid supporters in an effort to provoke violence and chaos. trump would love to proclaim the United States in a state of insurrection, so he could "save" the country by destroying our democracy. In my humble opinion.

    Not gonna happen.
