So the Big Lie has evolved to if the MAGAt candidate didn't win, it's fraud.

In case you’re wondering how Trump is processing his big losses in Georgia, he just blasted out a conspiracy-laden post from a former Newsmax “reporter” alleging that the GOP primaries there were all rigged and stolen. It includes obviously false statements such as this gem:

Its got to be close, because winning in a landslide will just generate scrutiny....so yeah, let 'em investigate it all they want, there's no way they're going to throw out enough votes to change the outcome.

The Repukes do it all the time. Just like they lie to pollsters.

It's further proof of Chump's utter stupidity. But we already knew that.

Every State gets 2 Senators, so Wyoming has as much representation as California? Hey them's the rules, it's legal. Passing laws that allow a gun license as a valid form of identification for voting but not a college ID? That's the prerogative of a legislature to decide, so it's fair and square. The looser of the popular vote wins a Presidential Election via the Electoral College, you got a problem with that? Take it up with a Constitutional Convention.

But registered Democrats legally voting in a Republican primary? That has to be fraud. Only Republicans are allowed to mess with an opposing party's primary

They usually cross party lines to vote out incumbents, conventional wisdom being that newcomers are an easier target.

one of his hand-picked candidates?

She got less than 4% of the vote but refuses to concede. If that's not a Trump tactic, nothing is.

4% of the vote and that loon believes she was somehow cheated.

this claim (fraud) way too many times and this time around, if anyone's going to believe him he needs to have the evidence in hand. That way, if he's lying or committing voter fraud, its coming from his own hands.

Of course his mentally impaired running back Herschel won....... so how does this election tampering crap work again?

When a Trump endorsed candidate loses, it becomes totally their fault.

They were not sufficiently pro-Trump, voter fraud, and other excuses.

If they succeed, Trump takes all credit.
