Trump Tweets About Voter 'Fraud' During G-20's Opening Meeting
Source: Bloomberg News
As leaders from across the globe began a virtual summit discussing issues from the coronavirus pandemic to climate change, Donald Trumps thoughts were elsewhere -- on the tussle over the U.S. election.
The president kept his head down, staring at something on his desk out of sight during a nine-minute speech on Saturday by Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz, who welcomed countries taking part in a meeting of the Group of 20 nations hosted by his kingdom. The speech and footage of other leaders was shown live on the official G-20 website.
Then, within moments of the monarch ending his remarks, Trump tweeted to comment on an encounter with Republican leaders of the Michigan state legislature. He promised: We will show massive and unprecedented fraud!
Trumps post was in response to a tweet by Michigan Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, who met Trump at the White House on Friday along with House Speaker Lee Chatfield. We have not yet been made aware of any information that would change the outcome of the election in Michigan, Shirkey and Chatfield wrote in a joint statement.

(2,252 posts)May as well get used to it. He will continue to propagandize "rigged election" until he loses the capacity to speak or tweet. He's still pushing for Hillary to get "locked up."

(57,284 posts)Trump has made it extremely clear that he does not give a single solitary shit about Americans getting sick and dying by the thousands. He doesnt even pretend any more.
Trump appears to be skipping a side-event at the G20 virtual summit focused on pandemic preparedness. The President has just arrived at his golf course in Virginia. https://cnn.it/3lT8ojH

(5,721 posts)I misread the headline and thought Li'l Dim-Don had stood up and addressed the summit with his "voter fraud unfair bigly waah" horseshit. I was mortified for a couple of seconds--and never before so grateful to see him tweeting that horseshit instead.
He promised: We will show massive and unprecedented fraud!
It's true, though! Li'l Dim-Don has shown us four years of massive and unprecedented fraud!

(16,694 posts)To reduce us to a shit-hole? Putin must be thrilled with his protege's accomplishments in dividing and gas lighting America. 25th amendment this asshole next week. Congress could do that. Ah holiday. It could be done. I'd forgo a C-19 crappy holiday to vote on that, remote or in-person.
