It just keeps going after Election Day...

If Trump loses on Election Day, he is certainly entitled to his dispute in the Court, no different than our Country afforded him already.

If Harris loses, I think the Dems are more Hamlet by nature;

“Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, […]”

 

I see no reason to think Trump wouldn't try it again if it doesn't go his away. A significant number - if not most - Republicans would probably embrace the lies about widespread voter fraud yet again. That gives him a lot of power and leverage within the party, particularly since the last thing Republicans want is infighting about whether to move on from Trump.

 

I see no doubt. Trump and MAGA rhetoric are openly bracing (and probably planning) for violence when they lose.

 

disappointing.

 

Yeah. Trump called the 2012 election a sham. In the 2016 primary, he accused Cruz of stealing votes. That's just how casually he throws around serious accusations with no evidence. He subsequently claimed he got more popular votes than Hillary but that millions of illegal immigrants voted for her. We know what happened next in 2020. Perhaps his lies are mostly about his ego, but maybe just as likely that fomenting distrust in American elections pleases his authoritarian friends.

 

I will thoroughly enjoy listening to MAGA Nation whine, gnash their teeth, and threaten to move to another country...like Arkansas... when Trump loses. I draw the line at violence. What happened on Jan6 was a hundred thousand fold worse than anything you can claim a Dem did after losing.

I will always loudly complain when a candidate wins the election after losing the popular vote by millions of votes. Too much power to too many states normal people don't want to live in.

 

Well, that’s a straight answer. I’ll give you that.
