(58,785 posts)the MSM's smoke-and-mirrors magic show for the ignorant, Trump's been running far behind Hlllary by all significant measures for many months now. If the entire right wing put all their money and power into it, they couldn't get away with this one.
If we want to worry about theft, and we no doubt all believe we should, I suggest we turn attention to the Senate and House races. Saving those majorities is where the right's money and power are going.

(8,636 posts)That's how Democrats took the Senate in 2006 and the White House in 2008 and 2012. Voters were so angry at what the GOP had done that they turned out in droves. I think the GOP was active in some states, working to disqualify voters; but, anyone who could vote turned out to vote Democratic.

Actually if anything, it helps candidates like Trump whose entire candidacy is based on convincing folks that the system is rigged.
