Trump officially began his campaign to discredit next election results yesterday.

I saw a post yesterday on MeidasTouch where he stated that the Democrats had already begun their campaign to steal the next election. Just like a one-trick pony, he has gone back to his old trick of blaming any future loss on something, or anything, other than his own incompetence and divisive, hateful politics.

He is setting up his supporters for another defense of his lies.

Because if he loses, he will have no other defense against the ongoing prosecutions.

He can do whatever he wants, but unlike in 2020, this time around Biden will be in charge of the Executive during and after the 2024 election, so any trump shenanigans will be dealt with swiftly.

Shortly after he won in 2016 he appeared in a CIA meeting, I think, and he chuckled said that he was claiming the elections were rigged but now, of corse, he “admitted” they were not.

Before 2016, when he said this type od stuff, he was criticized for it, even by most Republcians. Now it's just part of their SOP, attack our democracy. And that's what he's doing, it's another attackon our democracy to weaken it.
