Every state Sec of State will certify the election results. The winners will get sworn in.

...when I posted Trump's tweet about being "very concerned" that the Russians would rig the midterms for Democrats.

He's as transparent as his Trum-branded bottled water.

Either Russia will help the GOP win, and thereby invalidate the outcome of the election.
Or Russia's help will be ineffective, and the GOP will lose big time.

They've already lost the moral high ground when they did nothing to try to stop Russian interference in our elections.
It's all up to us Democrats!

Little Donnie lives in a reality separate from normal people. Of course he's setting up a false "illegitimate" election, just like Putin set up Trump's actual illegitimate election victory. It boggles my mind how anyone could be so gullible and ignorant to think Little Donnie is anything but a total jackass, totally unworthy of any public office, let alone the presidency.

Democrats can't just sit by and squeak into office. We have to make noise about this Trump strategy of feeding paranoia and election cheating allegations.

Each state will certify the winners. He thinks if if works for the Democrats it can work for him.

Laughable man.
