They're protesting at polling places around the country, including in Virginia where they have been blocking entrance to the polls.

They are protesting because they KNOW the very act of voting is anti-Trump. They wouldn't be trying to disrupt the election if they thought for a second that people were voting for Trump. They know they are beat.

(6,477 posts)In 2016, all the Trump lovers in my extended acquaintance group were basically laughing and crowing in the weeks leading up to the election. "We're so gonna win." "It's over." "I don't know anyone voting for crooked Hillary." Non-stop.
This year, virtual crickets, until the other day on Instagram, I see this. One of the premier Trump-humpers I know who had been crowing and strutting until about mid-summer, posted something like this:
"If Trump wins or if Biden wins, I'm gonna do the same thing: get on with my life. It's not that big a deal."
Believe me, coming from this guy that's more or less priming his friend group to accept a Trump loss. My jaw literally dropped. The energy is ebbing at the margins of MAGA. The only question is whether there's a complete collapse before election day, and he's Bruce Rauner at that point.
