If we knew everything the day after the s/election/coup that we know now

We would unabashedly be screaming theft. As the drip drip drip continues and we find out that what some of us have been saying since *JUMP* is indeed the case: the election of 2016 was RIGGED for MF45.

Start with the primary. MF45 was acting like he couldn't lose....because he *knew* he *wouldn't*. Consider the players back then.

They fucking RIGGED this.

Yes...and the general too. I don't know if they flipped votes, or just stopped certain votes from counting...but there is no doubt in my mind...at all. I fear failing to acknowledge this will only enable them to do it again.

I hope the dam bursts soon, because as the great Molly McKew said..."we're at war, whether we like it or not"

Still strange to me that it took 'law enforcement' and even democrats so long.

and there were people screaming that no votes were rigged...we didn't know that....blah, blah, blah

From North Carolina to problems in PA....we are in the midst of a Russian coup, plain and simple

11. I just wonder if 'authorities' that know (or strongly suspected) just figured it would be too much

14. Yes. It was frustrating though that we couldn't gather here to do that since DU was hacked and down.

Because we know that we would have done that and been collectively putting the pieces together about what happened.

And at precisely the moment when we would have brought to bear an enormous amount of knowledge to bear on that issue. This is an area in which DUers have worked together throughout the years to develop expertise. And many of us have actively engaged with local and state agencies to improve the system.

No accident we were disconnected right then and for some time afterwards. That was no prank hack.
