    Why do you need a NBA team fan message board to verify a screenshot of a tweet?

    You don't. You can type compete sentences so I assume you have the intelligence to figure out that you don't need a NBA team fan message board to figure it out.

    Hence the insincerity and hence Jesus frowning upon you now as we speak.

    Let's break this down:
    • News sources: I don't watch that ****, I don't even have cable. Let me clarify here so you can narrow your assumptions: I am not a Democrat. I am an independent. I am very selective with my information sources. I'm not always right, but I don't consume propaganda.

    • Military being used:
    "I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within,” Trump said. He added: “We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics. And I think they’re the big — and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military, because they can’t let that happen.”



    That's a Trump quote, bro. He said it.
    • 'Deep state' being a left-leaning only network is a laughable subject. It generally supports whomever put them there. Mostly political appointees. There might be a plan that includes that.
    • Deleting data: If you think that the 'other' finger pointing demagoguery that brought these people into power will stop with 'deep state' being flushed from the government won't extend to 'regular citizens' once it's over, you're going to be rudely surprised. They have to have someone to hate, it's what fuels the machine. Don't take my word for it, just read your history. This tactic is thousands of years old.

    No it isn't. TDS is a serious issue. Did you REALLY think an assassination attempt on Trumps life was normal? There are some really really unstable people out there struggling after this election. All because there was a conscious effort to paint the man as some evil tyrant.

    I won't start listing the people on this forum who have propagated similar messages, ones that implied this country is over if Trump is elected or people who supported him are bad people. I am tired of the self-righteous people criticizing me and condemning me for voting for Trump (and I refused to vote for Trump the previous two elections).
    There is a dangerous trend over the last couple elections portraying the opposite side as evil people and this has to stop.

    I didn't see the post but I assume this is some MAGA piece of **** loser trying to troll for fun.

    I posted this the other day - these guys' lives are so totally empty, they can't even enjoy their big W - 3 days later they are chasing the dragon of the shock pwn on the Internet.

    Just like Trump whose demented soul is...sitting on his fat ass rage posting all day again.

    Touch grass, smoke grass - do something IRL fellows.

    the ones with TDS are the republicans, conservatives and so-called christians who voted for trump.

    trump painted himself that way with his words and actions.

    you say this, but a few posts up you re-posted a tweet alleging that someone murdered his family b/c trump won then made a "joke" implying that it was a fellow poster here.

    Covid made it easier to vote. We literally had drive thru voting. But hey, maybe its a grand conspiracy and the Democrats cheated in an election where they had less power in.

    I then have no idea why the democrats would not cheat in this past election if it worked so well in 2020, couldn't even cheat to win the house or senate...they must not be very good at this cheating thing.

    So much easier! So easy that 5 days later, California is only 66% through. If this was FL or TX, democrats would be screaming voter fraud.

    Voter Game Plan
    CIVICS & DEMOCRACY
    Understanding why declaring winners in California may take a minute

    Ballots mailed in or dropped off on election day in L.A. County in 2022.

    )

    Election Day is here, but now comes the waiting.



    The backstory
    Things take a while here largely because California works so hard to expand the ways people can vote. For example:

    • Californians in recent years overwhelmingly vote by mail — nearly 90% of votes cast in the 2022 general election were mail-in ballots. In this year's primary the percentage was just as high. Those ballots can be postmarked up to and including Election Day. They're counted as long as the ballot arrives within seven days (for the general election, that's Nov. 12).
    • California offers same-day voter registration at any voting center. These new voters must cast a provisional ballot, which is counted once election officials confirm their eligibility (they are overwhelmingly accepted — for example, Los Angeles County reports that historically between 85% to 90% have been counted.
    • Voters also have the right to cast provisional ballots if there's any problem on election day — like if poll workers aren't able to void an outstanding mail-in ballot, or if there’s any issues calling up voter information from e-pollbooks. Again (see above), provisionals take longer to process because eligibility has to be confirmed.
    • Vote-by-mail ballots require signature matching. When the one received doesn't match the one on file, county registrars must contact that voter to let them know — and give them the chance to correct it.
    • And, with over 22 million registered voters, we're really, really big. In the 2024 primary more than 7.9 million Californians voted — that’s more people than the populations of 37 U.S. states.

    Made it easier to cheat is more like it.

    I'm sure you saw the stats in Pennsylvania where 15 mil more people voted during Covid than in anytime during history.

    They couldn't cheat because this time around the GOP had poll watchers (Still do in Arizona/Pennsylvania) and lawyersready to fight if there were irregularities.

    Yeah, no evidence supports that claim. Biden won in 2020. Trump won in 2024. See how easy this is?

    What happened to the 15 million votes this time around. I dont and never will believe in that big of an anomaly. It was rigged, oh well it's been somewhat fixed. Even though there is still some BS going on in the Pennsylvania/Arizona Senate races.

    Notice how the electorial college vote looks in voter ID states vs non voter ID states.

    You realize right now there is a conspiracy theory that those votes exist but Russia (and its bomb threads to blue areas) and Elon (with election machines linked to starlink) suppressed those votes, right?

    Since you want to be conspiratorial about it, there you go. That's what happened to those votes.

    It's weird because its just as easy to vote now. It took me 5 minutes and that was on the 5th. Mail in ballots, early voting, day of voting with 100 polling locations.
    What really makes you wonder is how it just so happens all the "extra" votes in 2020 went democrat.
