Yeah, well, Mr. Trump: everything in life is "rigged":
Opportunity, education, business opportunities, employment, choosing one’s life partner, well just about everything is rigged.
There is no question if you are born in the inner city and have the chance to observe how suburban and wealthy kids within the city limits are treated in terms of their education, you would certainly think that it’s rigged. If you go for a job interview and you are average looking, and the individual who gets the job ahead of you is extremely attractive, you assumed that the process was rigged and that you were equally qualified but that the looks got him or her the position. If you go to the bank and you have shaky credit because you come from a difficult environment and you’ve had to struggle all your life to achieve what you’ve managed to achieve and can’t get a loan to start your business making widgets, with some rich guy goes in there and the banker says to him or her are you sure this amount of money we’re lending you is enough? Perhaps you could use some more. Well, you would think that was rigged in their favor and that even if you had a great business plan and a terrific idea you would be “discriminated against”. If you’re just a regular schmuck and meet for example, a man/woman on the street whom you find attractive but he/she looks down upon you because of your social and economic status but quickly takes up with some complete asshole who drives a Ferrari or is just plain and obviously wealthy in his/her own right, you would say that the process is rigged against you too (although in this case he/she did you a big favor in the long run).
What I’m getting at here is the Trump has had everything rigged for him his entire life: his birth, his education certainly, his business opportunities, everything including the women in his life all rigged. He lied, he cheated, he stole his way to the top and was facilitated by willing victims compounding that rigging and he’s complaining now that somebody was fraudulent. This is the pot calling the kettle black. It is such obvious pathology that it is eminently ridiculous and absurdist. Some of the talented playwrights of the 20th century would’ve had a field day with this in their time.
So the fact that he admitted that he lost the election is simply making a mistake and uttering the truth. It really doesn’t matter what he says he doesn’t say. If I were to say that the 1964 Phillies won the pennant and the World Series because they probably should have, it does not put their name on the list rather than that of the St. Louis Cardinals. To paraphrase Henry Miller in Tropic of Capricorn: what I say and don’t say don’t mean shit to a swan. Neither does anything he says either.
