Donald Trump and his allies are laying the groundwork to contest a potential loss in November, stoking doubts about the election’s legitimacy even as opinion polls show the Republican presidential candidate leading in battleground states.
In recent interviews, Trump has refused to commit to accepting the election results. At his rallies, he has portrayed Democrats as cheaters, called mail-in ballots corrupt and urged supporters to vote in such large numbers to render the election “too big to rig.”
He also backed a new Republican-sponsored bill aimed at keeping foreigners from voting, seeking to link his false election fraud claims with the issue of illegal immigration, even though voting by non-citizens is already unlawful and studies show it is exceedingly rare.
Trump’s tactics are an intensified version of the strategy he used during the 2020 election, when his baseless voter fraud claims inspired his supporters to assault the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in an attempt to overturn his election defeat.
So he thinks he’s gonna lose. I like that.
He thinks he’s going to win one way or another.
He thinks he already has won, and 2024 is just the end of his vacation.
I see this is not your first time around delusional narcissists. Scarily accurate.
He knows he is already going to lose, and is taking actions to take power anyways. Just what we want from a democratic nation.
It’s like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
More like a replay of the same train wreck we already watched in slow motion. He planned the same thing on the last election.
Hopefully this time they get the punishment the last group of trators avoided.
Plenty of insurrectionists went to prison for a long time for Jan 6th, just not the wealthy ones
If 3 years is a long time then sure but only a handful are serving much more than that. Really they should all be serving much much longer and got off with a slap on the wrist. Americans have been executed for treason for less
