Here in Pittsburgh, nothing made sense

In 2024, Trump gained in every urban precinct over what Biden had done in 2020. Of course, it wasn't generally noticed because where Biden won by 89-11, Harris won by 81-19. Where Biden won by 84-16, Harris won by 79-21, etc. Huge wins for sure. But scrape enough votes in heavily Democratic precincts and you can steal a swing state unnoticed.

There's simply no way Harris underperformed Biden in urban districts in a heavily Democratic city.
Trump cried enough about a "stolen 2020" that when Elon actually stole 2024, folks didn't say a word.

He wasn't shot.
He didn't win.
He's on the list.
