Trump ignores facts with claim of improper 'vote dumps'

In lawsuits, tweets and a 46-minute taped diatribe, the president has promoted a false narrative about vote counting in several states.

WASHINGTON — At 3:42 on the morning after Election Day, President Donald Trump's lead in Wisconsin was suddenly eroded by a spike in the number of votes for President-elect Joe Biden.

The president cited the Biden jump during a taped White House speech distributed Wednesday as evidence of fraud. "And to this day, everyone's trying to figure out, where did it come from?"

In fact, the change has long since been explained. The votes came from mail ballots cast in Milwaukee and 38 other municipalities that were counted in a central location and reported all at once. State officials fully expected to see the sudden change.

Jim Steineke, the Republican leader in the state assembly, said it was no surprise. "We knew exactly how many were out there the entire day. Them being reported late is NOT an indication of fraud," he wrote on Facebook when claims first surfaced that something had gone wrong.

1. This "vote dump" wasn't supposed to happen but DeJoy got caught.

It’s becoming clear why DeJoy was put in place, why he tried to kneecap the postal service and why Trump was so afraid of the mail in vote.

Sure, we saw it coming and headed DeJoy off at the pass. But Trumps focused rage at these so called late ballots confirms, that’s where he expected the cheat to payoff.
