2. FWIW the mundane psychics/clairvoyants/tarot readers are saying yes.

Why, you ask, do I even consider such things?

Because: Bin Laden, after 911, gave two long tirades/speeches about whatever ... in one, in the second hour (I believe it was transcribed in the NYTimes) he talked about how: before 911, old women in his camp came up to him and said: Sir, we keep seeing airplanes crashing into skyscrapers. He said : Oh you are silly old women...

I think there are strange things not yet explained by current science, etc.

5. Maybe that's his hole card.

If Trump doesn't go ahead with ending Tesla/SpaceX etc's contracts with the federal government, Elon's knowledge of serious election tampering might be why.

On the other hand, it's pretty clear that if Elon were to admit to the tampering, provide evidence of the tampering, that might cause some considerable inconvenience to himself. State attorney generals might look into it. Dana Nessel in Michigan is a Democrat. Josh Kaul in Wisconsin is a Democrat.

8. As far as election stealing goes, the easiest pocket to pick is of the person convinced

that their pocket cannot be picked. Whether it happened or not, Democrats consider themselves far too intelligent for them to ever have an election stolen from them because that only happens to stupid Magas. I think it is possible that for 4 years they lead us to believe that while planning to do exactly that. After all, we were the perfect mark to have our pocket picked believing it could never happen to us.

11. Election theft and suppression is real

Climate change is real, vaccines work, books do not cause gayness, .....etc. etc.

The election system is not safe from all manner of rigging. Until that changes, anything is possible. Project 2025 is being ruthlessly executed and The Devil is in the White House--isn't that proof that anything is possible? I agree with the poster who said Dems are particularly vulnerable to election theft (why--because we tend to play fair and we tend to ignore it).

Does Musk know about election theft in 2024? Will he tell? That's a different question.

13. True, the suppression that we already know about was enough

to turn the election. Private individuals were given the ability to challenge and ultimately purge thousands of legitimate voters. Things like that should never be allowed in a free and fair election.

12. It depends. Both eLoon and tRump have numerous personality
Fri Jun 6, 2025, 08:06 AM

disorders that can be exploited by a skilled interviewer. We've seen tRump come close to confessing (if not fully confessing) on several occasions.

tRump can be tricked into ratting out eLoon by a good AI prank where it looks as if eLoon has exposed the plot and thrown trump under the bus.

eLoon, on the other hand, has a hell of a lot to lose if he's the one who actually facilitated the theft. However, if he feels he has nothing left to lose and embarks on a drug-fueled suicide mission, then he might snitch or try to pin it on someone else.

That's why we probably will not see eLoon completely defunded or deported.
