I was being snarky when I called the the Trump voter fraud tip line to report blacks voting. But

I do believe that blacks voting in massive numbers in Philly, Detroit, Fulton County and Milwaukee is what they really consider “fraudulent”.. In their view, blacks are not considered legitimate citizens nor even fully human. It must be so completely galling to them that black were key to Trump’s defeat. This is the part no one is saying out loud.

They consider any vote not for them to be illegal.

If we could just go back to the 3/5 rule then we wouldn’t have to go to all this trouble of making it harder for people to vote.

Every single one of Trump's fraud claims revolves around minority counties. It's plain racism and needs to be called that.

when he was questioning why the SOS did a handcount/signature verification in Cobb County, whereas Trump asked for those acts to take place in Fulton county.

Cobb County is predominately white (Newt Gingrich country) and Fulton is black (city of Atlanta, etc).

but it's been obvious since the get-go, that he's only going after the large diverse counties where Biden won big. That's the only place he could pick up the amount of votes he needs. I can't imagine anyone, aside from a Fox viewer that would even question the votes he's going after.
