"Election Fraud" is this election cycle's GOP attempt at delegitimatization of the President-elect.

Joe Biden is white, male, cisgender, and Christian. His name is relentlessly all-American. He has the dogged, scrappy style of a guy raised in working-class Pennsylvania.

Calling him a Kenyan, Muslim, Marxist, Communist, Fascist, America-hater would just be ridiculous.

As ridiculous as it was when they tagged Barack Obama with the same epithets. But because of President Obama's skin color and Arabic-derived name, the GOP was able to sell it convincingly to the room-temperature IQ crowd.

They know it would never work on Joe Biden. So they're frantically pushing the election fraud nonsense in a feverish attempt to re-capture the glory days of "He's not a real American, so he can't be President".

Every form of evil contains the seeds of its own destruction.

I seriously have to wonder: If Trump hadn't conceived the idea of becoming President to wreak revenge on President Obama for roasting Trump at the Foreign Correspondent's Dinner, what would he be doing today?

He probably wouldn't be grasping at straws for dear life to keep himself out of prison. He would probably be dreaming up another business disaster to paste his name on; Trump Chicken Livers. Trump Muscatel. TrumPillow. Who the fuck knows? But he probably wouldn't have made his sleazy, shady, and illegal business deals plain for everyone to see. If a narcissist is doing something he doesn't want people to know about, he shouldn't seek public attention so avidly...

Trump's gaslighting the Georgia GOP is akin to Hitler's "The German people failed me.

They must therefor be destroyed."

Wish I could have some sympathy for you repukes…

If Trump runs in 2024, is he going to bring back Trump Steaks, too?

Trump Vodka, Trump University? Trump Airlines?

Is he going to want a do-over on everything for which he failed spectacularly?

Which is everything?

He's a failed father.

A failed husband.

A failed human being.

Sooner or later, you sort of run out of chances...
