After he won the New Hampshire Republican primary Tuesday night, former President Donald Trump complained about his main GOP rival, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, about immigration, inflation, and his likely opponent in November, President Joe Biden.
One thing he didn’t complain about: Voter fraud in the election he had just won.
That continues a pattern for Trump as he steamrolls through the GOP presidential primary and toward an increasingly likely November rematch with Biden. While Trump generally refrains from claiming voter fraud in elections he wins, he spends plenty of time laying the groundwork to cry fraud should he lose an upcoming vote. He’s already been doing that with an eye toward November’s general election.
“They used COVID to cheat. And they did a lot of other things, too. We’re not going to let that happen,” Trump said of Democrats in his Tuesday night speech to supporters in New Hampshire. “You can never forget history, because if you forget, you never, you never recover from it. And you repeat.”
Did anyone expect him to do anything else?
Also-
They used COVID to cheat.
I know everything he says is word salad, but what?
Shitty reference to so many states implementing wider mail-in voting?
wider use of mail-in voting is the best thing to come out of covid.
I feel it is a close second to people generally backing the fuck off in public places.
early in the pandemic, i was going into walmart becuase there was something I couldn’t find elsewhere and was sick of giving amazon money. any how, it was like 60 degrees. a beautiful day, I’m walking in without a jacket and some old boomer-type starts harranging me about how I’m going to catch a cold if i don’t put on a coat.
So I apologized and faked a sneeze. She practically fled. and I swear that was the fastest I’ve ever gotten in and out of a walmart before. as an introvert… there were some positives to the pandemic.
yeah but that was not long lasting.
To me, it seems quite obvious that he meant this.
He does say a lot of unintelligible things, but this one makes sense to my ears and is very consistent with earlier claims all the way back to 2020.
I guess because COVID killed a bunch of Republicans that refused to take the vaccine?
Something to do with Covfefe
Mad scientists, complete with lightning in the background while cackling fiendishly, “invented” a virus to trick world wide quarantine measures into false activation. Simultaneously making the head of the largest state look like a fool.
He’s got a point. Republican politicians killed a fair amount of their loyal constituents via misinformation. I’m sure that had to have made a dent.
They should probably also blame democrats for the number of insurrectionists that Trump sent to the capitol who hopefully will be excluded from voting for the rest of their lives.
He degenerates more into a disgusting slimy haggard worm every article picture.
It looks less like he’s speaking and more like he’s getting ready to deepthroat the mic.
Practicing for Putin.
What, the guy who complained about fraud in every election, even the one he won, would do it again?
Who cares, he’s not going to be president. The GOP should start focusing on 2028 and trying to find an actual presidential candidate somewhere in their basket of losers.
he’s not going to be president.
Only if we vote and mobilize others to do the same. He hasn’t lost until the election is over.
Don’t count your chickens before they hatch
I know you’re right, but I also know the media is going to be pushing the ‘Trump might win!’ storyline nonstop until November. Rather than just report on, you know, all of his crimes and attempt to overthrow the United States, they’ll take the lazy way out and just keep repeating the same story maniacally for months.
Agreed. Complacency will kill everything positive about the country and, while Canadians love to poke fun at half of the presidents, it’s a little serious this time around.
Don’t make us burn it down again. :-D
even the one he won
The tiny bit of shit-talking he did about fraud before he won in 2016 was only done just like this shit-talking right here is being done - to lay the groundwork for a full-on denial of the elction if he loses. Not because he believes there’s any fraud, not for any other goddamn reason other than to lay the groundwork to raise holy dumb dogshit when he loses.
He doesn’t give a flying fuck about fraud if he wins and anyone who implies anything different is badly mistaken.
I swear to big baby jesus, this cuntrag is going to be whining like a little bitch even after he fucking dies (may it be painful, slow, and in a supermax).
Wow, that would be a surprise
Trust me, bro, they cheated. I can’t show you how but if you google it it’s out there. Just google it.
then he goes and blames google for ‘censoring’ things.
This was the kid no one wanted to play with, who even the unpopular kids couldn’t feel pity for because they’re such a belligerent asshole upon conversation.
He would still cry about it even if he won.
On the bright side, the day after the election, Biden will still be in the White House and Trump won’t.
That will make a Trump coup much harder IF he loses the election.
Only if we vote and mobilize others to do the same. He hasn’t lost until the election is over.
Don’t count your chickens before they hatch
riddle me this, if the last one was stolen why run again? if the system is rigged why try? circular logic to me
This is why it needs to be a blowout. If Biden gets a slim victory it becomes a lot easier to convince more people that it was rigged.
I used to say the same exact thing. Now I’m thinking a blowout would just lead to, “See! See! There’s no WAY Trump got beaten that badly!”
True. Maybe not a Reagan 1984 blowout. More like an Obama 2008 blowout.
Don’t worry, Trump’s gonna claim foul play no matter whether he wins or loses and by how much.
Those fucktards are beyond reason. They’re a total loss. It’s time to move on without them and make them as irrelevant as possible.
He certainly leans. But that’s mostly his platform heels.
Picture looks like Walmart Tony Bennett.
If they control the ballot boxes why not just have Haley get to general?
Ideally by then his media engagements would be scheduled around visitation.
