2020 was rigged -- for Trump. That's why Trump was so convinced that he should have won.
There were enough protections in place to keep him from winning.
And despite Democrats controlling the executive branch there were allowed to not only get away with trying to steal the election but to gain access to the inner workings of all the voting machines and software, sent death threats to all voting officials in swing states without fucking consequence, literally a handful of prosecutions despite hundreds over the legal line as detailed by Reuters investigations, like what the fuck good does it do getting a democrat in there? A lot of people stuck their necks out to protect democracy and we're left as the military would say with their ass hanging in the breeze.
Under Fire by Republicans and not protected by democrats.
Yeah that makes a ton of sense. He didn't cheat, he lied about losing. The "protections" that kept him from winning is our normal electoral process.
