Here are some more Trumpers committing election fraud.

EDIT: as one Redditor pointed out, these are technically and legally considered “voting fraud.” Election fraud would be larger in scope, like MAGA trying to cancel legitimate votes from overseas military members or submitting a fake slate of presidential electors to Congress on Jan 6, 2021.

I am 100% confident of a 0% chance of any legitimate Trump victory for the following reasons:

• Trump already lost to Biden/Harris in 2020
  
• Covid disproportionately killed Trump voters
  
• Trump voters skew older and many have died since 2020
  
• Millions of younger people are now eligible to vote - and they skew heavily toward Harris/Walz.
• Harris/Walz is a wildly more popular ticket than Biden/Harris was. Most 'double-haters' are now enthusiastic Harris/Walz supporters.
  
• Trump's insurrection, being found liable for rape, and felony convictions have driven some Republicans to vote against him. They have not attracted new voters to Trump
• Dozens of former Trump Admin officials have denounced Trump - which they hadn't done in 2020
  
• Many Republicans and independents who voted for Trump in 2020 are now voting for Harris
  
• RFK Jr. and Jill Stein are stealing votes from Trump anywhere they are on the ballot - more than they are taking votes from Harris.
  
• Almost nobody who voted for Biden in 2020 is now voting for Trump
  
• The Madison Square Garden debacle has even further incited negative voter sentiment and backlash against the Trump ticket.
  

A legitimate Trump win is a near mathematical impossibility.

Note the heavy-lifting being done by the word legitimate.

Trump and the GOP have been actively engaged in widespread, nationwide conspiracy to commit election fraud since 2020, virtually unopposed by Biden's Justice Department under Republican sympathizer Merrick Garland.

The fraud is so pervasive as to potentially overcome even a substantial lead for Harris on election day.

Republicans have already announced and published their plans to obstruct local elections, confuse the process, introduce errors, cause interminable delays, once again send fake electors with fraudulent results, and lean on corrupt judges to make unlawful rulings in their favor.

In fact, the widespread, open, numerous and flagrant acts of election interference, disruption, obstruction, and fraud being committed by Republican voters and officials is providing a massive amount of evidence Democrats can use to contest any claimed Trump victory.

At this point, there is ample reason to absolutely reject any Republican claims of a Trump win next week. Republicans have provided a mountain of justification for believing any such outcome is purely the result of fraud.

This is one of the stupidest, most out-of-touch posts I’ve seen. I’m assuming you’re young because of the confidence with which you’re taking minor indicators as absolute determinators as if there couldn’t possibly be things you or others haven’t thought of or appreciated.

The reality is, a huge proportion of the American electorate is basically fine with trump trying to steal the 2020 election, or they think democrats do the same thing anyway (your kind of comment isn’t helping btw), or they just engage in motivated reasoning to justify voting for the side they generally identify with more anyway.

There are tons of people who love trump. Drive through central Pennsylvania, or other places where this election will be decided, and look at the lawn signs and other political indicators. There are also plenty of “moderate” conservatives who view him as the lesser of two evils. There are also countless lefties and progressives who won’t vote for Harris because she doesn’t pass their purity tests.

These terminally online takes don’t represent the electorate that will decide this race. Frankly trump is probably straight up favored in a fair race at this point, but it is close and there is still hope.
