MANY MONTHS in advance.
Trump knew that COVID and his response would probably cost him the election, you see?
In most states Republicans controlled the legislature that expanded mail-in voting, they attempted to make it so that mail-in ballots had to be counted LAST. Couldn't even be TALLIED ahead of time in Pennsylvania, for example.
They knew that Biden voters, being, you know, SANE ... would mostly choose to not go to the actual polls in a GLOBAL PANDEMIC, if they did not have to.
While simultaneously tell all of YOU ... to not use this method, and to show up at the polls instead. To show how manly you all are and how 'not afraid of COVID', etc.
Meanwhile, Trump complained for MONTHS ahead of time, with NO rationale, that mail-in voting was ripe for 'fraud' (it's actually not, but you guys mostly struggle with 'facts' and 'reality', so I'm not going to try to explain it to you).
Then what ended up happening is that Trump ended up looking like he was going to win ... the night of the election. All of you people thought it was in the bag. But Trump knew he was in trouble, as he had all along. So he started talking about it being 'stolen', as he had all summer.
To all of you watching your Hero's slow demise as the mail-ins were counted, I'm sure it seemed 'sketchy', and very painful to watch. And I'm sure none of 'your' news sources were telling you the truth as to WHY the mail-in counting was dragging on so long.
It took so long, BECAUSE IT WAS PLANNED THIS WAY, to manipulate you into believing a 'stolen election' story, when Trump lost in the end.
The endgame of this long-planned FRAUD by Donald Trump ... took place on January 6th.
Added on Edit: And also part of the plan was collecting $250M in donations from you suckers to 'stop the steal' ... and turning around and spending only a few million of it on his dozens of FAILED court cases, nearly all of which didn't get hearings even, because they were a total joke. Many of them rejected by judges placed by Trump!
Wake up, stop being traitors, and realize you've been conned by a master conman.
Please, for the good of this Nation. Just STOP.

(2,711 posts)were done in two batches. Testimony not under oath and testimony under oath. Only that done under oath could be used in a court. But Trumps folks deliberately used sketchy, wild tales that were sworn to in setting his supporters up to believe what they are sure was the evidence of their own eyes.
Diabolical.

(2,177 posts)Which made no sense until it became clear that the 2016 election was tampered with on his behalf.
I think Trump knows that the Biden Administration may very well get to the bottom of his fraud so he is doing everything possible to project and misdirect.

(64,877 posts)The 2nd Moderna side effect for me was just a fever & some achiness in the upper back.
I functioned normally all day, though.
The about 14 hours later, gone!
Two guys at the golf course had chills for several hours, but didn't have the achiness.
There was a post here a couple weeks back showing the side effect ratios for both 2 time meds. About 30% of people have reaction to the 2nd shot.
I know you were kidding. Just thought I'd toss in my personal experience.

(20,628 posts)he always claims that he's been cheated in one way or another, to the point where regularly started making the accusations prior to the competition taking place.
Just look back at the 2016 Iowa caucus, where he was defeated by Ted Cruz.

The anger displayed, by people who realizes they have been "conned", is un-fathomable.......
Can you just fantasize about 74 Million people, suddenly realizing that they got it in their backside by the RepubliCon Party?????
Of course, with their mentality, they would take it out on the Democrats for popping their balloon.......

(32,599 posts)... and every time it has been a Repuke voting fraudulently or illegally.
All of the Repukes' outrage over voter fraud that we've had to listen to in the last 12 months, and not a single instance has been a Democrat committing the fraud or voting illegally. There has been no stealing except where Repukes got away with it one more time. We'll get them next time though.

(22,077 posts)We already know about the excessive lying...the golf is also pathetic, cheating and also failing to pay out a winner of one golf tournament too...
--snip--
Trump refused to pay winner of a 2010 golf contest his $1M prize and when mogul was sued, he doled out settlement using money from his charity
--snip--
I could go on and on, there are tons of stories out there regarding his pathetic golf adventures where he whined about losing, etc. I didn't feel like going into it, since I don't deal w/ pathetic losers like this. It's too pathetic.
