"Plot to Overturn the Election"
...it looks like trump's "Big Lie" has become a huge well-supported nationwide puke movement to question and possibly overturn future election results by controlling a state's election apparatus...
...if I lived in a puke state or in a puke county or in a puke city and a puke won an election, I would now have an extremely difficult time believing the results...
...they're destroying this country with their continuous never-ending lies...they're fascists, not democrats...
...sad and very evil...

How did false claims of election fraud make their way to the center of American politics? FRONTLINE and ProPublica investigate the plot to overturn the 2020 U.S. presidential election.
FRONTLINE and ProPublica uncover how a small group of people helped to create some of the core narratives of fraud that President Donald Trump and many others would go on to champion after the election and how the legacy of their effort is impacting democracy and shaping elections to come. 03/29/2022.

Their claims don't withstand even basic challenges, but the repub media universe is so all-encompassing and so hermetically sealed that they can subsist and get elected on only that. Worse, legitimate media ends up playing sound bites either to report what they've said or debunk it and it has the net effect of furthering the bullshit.
