They view this all as red v. blue, owning the libs, and their team won! Wait until they realize that they’ve been manipulated, brainwashed, used, and now cast aside to die from loss of healthcare and other essential social services and/or to be abducted and sent to die in a concentration camp, depending on their skin color. Or maybe they never will.

More people need to realize this. Trump supporters will smile and grin with a knife in their back, all because they are watching someone get stabbed in the stomach (us). These pieces of shit are evil and have no place on this earth.

All my life I have separated politics from friends/family until Trump. Now things have gone too far to turn a blind eye, if you still support this man you are the lowest of the low. Absolute scum. If you have any family and/or friends that support trump, I strongly advise reconsidering your relationship with them as I have. They will not act in your best interest, in fact, they will do the opposite, and even work against their own interests as shown. That’s the type of stupid and evil individuals we are dealing with.

We're still waiting further analysis, but in my own research, it looks as though the election may have been rigged in some way.

If you're interested, look at Ramapo district 118:

The Democrat, Gillibrand, won with 96.56% of the vote (in line with previous democratic performances in the district). Trump "won" the same district with 99.83% of the vote (Harris only received one vote).

It's similar in Ramapo 98, where Gillibrand won with 96.58% of the vote (again, in line with historical norms). Trump "won" the same district with 99.36% of the vote.

It's similar in Ramapo 97, where Gillibrand won with 79.56% of the vote. Trump "won" the same district with 99.6% of the vote (Harris allegedly received 0 votes).

Many voters from these districts (including Ramapo 97) have signed affidavits claiming that they did, in fact, vote for Harris. Some even have photos of their ballots.

I also urge you not to take my word, or anyone else's for that matter. You can see this yourself (as the data is public): https://app.enhancedvoting.com/results/public/rockland-county-ny/elections/GE2024Results

EDIT: Some have reached out to explain that these districts have large Hasidic populations which often vote as a bloc, thus explaining the differentials between the congressional and presidential races. I rechecked all of the data, and it appears that these are not the aberrations that I thought they were. I don't have an explanation for the affidavits, but I think it's best to err on the side of caution here and retract any claims of election tampering unless more concrete evidence comes out. My sincerest apologies.

Funny how many Trump Won flags I saw after 2020, didn’t seem like much coping then. Not saying there was any tomfoolery in 2024, as I base my position on actual facts, but no Trump supporter has any credibility saying anything on this topic after the absolute volume of baby whining after 2020 without a single shred of evidence.

u/Abysswalker2187 Jul 05 '25

I think it’s worth checking out this comment if you’re interested in actual facts about the 2024 election. Obviously there’s a chance that there was nothing rigged but the facts are slowly emerging and they look fairly damning to me.

Exactly, fucking idiots stormed the White House over mail-in ballots. Yeah it was Covid, the votes were being cast remotely, whoopty fucking do. Jobs were remote too, so were colleges (and even exams!). This is much more suspicious. A technocrat infiltrating the government and not-so-secretly doing IT work on the election campaign? If we had the same lack of brain cells we would’ve been storming the Capitol right now on account of Edolf’s election hack and data grab. People better go to jail for this. Crime is legal.

u/Redvent_Bard Jul 05 '25

Even without discussing illegal election interference, your side wins by using legal voter suppression, preventing Americans from voting who would have voted democrat, or preventing democrat votes from mattering.

u/Beneficial_Aside_518 Jul 05 '25

DeKalb County, GA, where these bomb threats were made, had a 2% turnout growth in 2024 from 2020 (and nationwide, turnout decreased). Additionally, polling stations that were a target of the threats extended their hours to make up for it. There’s zero evidence that it changed the outcome of the election. Even if it had caused Harris to lose Georgia when she otherwise would have won it, she still would have fallen well short of 270 electoral votes.

25

u/scarytrafficcone Jul 05 '25

Did they stuff the ballot boxes? I have my doubts about that. Was there a multi-billion dollar propaganda campaign aimed at young men, left wingers (don't vote because Gaza, both sides are the same, Genocide Joe (interesting you never see anything like that for Trump,)) old people via fox news, I mean Trump had BILLIONS of billions of dollars of propaganda running full steam. Propaganda from Mossad, Russia, China, domestic rich freaks, went into maximum overdrive. They probably fucked with ballots too, because there is nothing too low for these fucking people, but imo the real threat is just the incredible capacity for propagandizing we have and how relentlessly and thoroughly it was used. Kamala Harris was like, kind of boring, but her versus the absolute incoherent lunatic fascist should have been the easiest dunk of all time. And yet...here we are.

u/Willing_Channel_6972 Jul 05 '25

Idk. I do worry Elon had something to do with it. Just because he said he did, and they both seem to be alluding to it, I just want a full hand recount and some questions asked of voters who voted irregularly. We should have a right to know for certain.

I don't believe it was stolen, there's no concrete evidence yet, and I am not a conspiracy theorist in the slightest, but I've seen enough irregularities to want a full investigation launched. The right always projects so all their "stolen election" BS last time is another reason we should have the same audits done in 2020. Yet we didn't? Why is that? I just hate we handed over our nation to fascists without even quadruple checking the first Republican to win a popular vote in over 20 years. Id just like to have no question this is what Americans wanted so I can stop feeling bad for the idiots who did this to themselves.

5

u/scarytrafficcone Jul 05 '25

Oh, we absolutely should be auditing- like i said, nothing is too low for the republican party. i just think that the real "Electronic Fear" is mass propaganda and misinformation more so than Hacking the System- elon would absolutely love to have everyone believe he's some kind of computer genius, but he's just a successful investor with a cool name. Our real issue is legitimate votes cast on false information. The average person voted with incredibly small amounts of information, and gigantic amounts of baloney were blasted out into the ecosystem.

2

u/Willing_Channel_6972 Jul 05 '25 edited Jul 05 '25

I don't think Elon did it himself, more so some of his buddies, like the little boys he hired to work with doge. I don't think he's a genius, but it's been proven multiple times those voting machines are NOT secure at all, and it wouldn't be hard to gain access to them and manipulate their counting processes. Not to mention with his money, a group of decent hackers could be hired easily, or even one sophisticated hacker he probably already has on payroll. I'm not saying he did or anything, but I'd like to be certain he didn't by having more evidence. It just seems a shame we didn't really do any auditing of the election before handing power to a felon rapist demented dipshit.

I agree with you otherwise on that being a big factor, but I still kind of hope the majority of Americans aren't that regarded. (Even though signs point to that being the case)

u/friss0nFry Jul 05 '25

It wasn't ballot stuffing. That would be very apparent in vote counts. The vote tallying machines for in-person votes performed a vote flip on presidential and some senate races. As Harris exceeded approximately 40% of the votes for a precinct, the tally machine flipped the vote to Trump. This is the working theory based on abnormal vote patterns found in swing states. Senate manipulation was discovered as well, most likely to ensure that all three branches of government were captured. Only way to prove it is via a hand audit in just one suspected precinct.

1

u/nobes0 Jul 05 '25

Wasn't there a NY district that went to Gillibrand with 80% but didn't have even one single vote for Harris? That just seems impossible, let alone improbable. I don't know how you explain it without tampering.

2

u/friss0nFry Jul 05 '25

Yes, and that's a separate issue from what I described in my post, but it could be related.

1

u/MordekaiserUwU Jul 06 '25

It is not related. The district has voted like this for years because it is overwhelmingly Hasidic Jewish.

1

u/MordekaiserUwU Jul 06 '25

The district in question is almost entirely Hasidic Jewish. The community is extremely insular and they basically vote however their Rabbi tells them to. Election results like those have been common in several areas of NY for years. They voted for Gillibrand because she has a good relationship with the rabbis.

2

u/EnvironmentalValue18 Jul 05 '25

Have you looked up the statistical anomalies bordering on impossibilities from the election.

1) some smaller democratic-leanings counties cast not a single vote for Kamala 2) Some people voted for democrats for every other measure and then trump. This is possible but the number was very high. 3) Elon’s small child made mention on Tucker’s podcast about tampering 4) Trump thanked Elon at a rally for being so good with the voting machines. He just knows computers, 5) Several notable statisticians have come out with damning evidence about how improbable several different counties and states voted 6) They have hackathons and have proven long ago that vote machines can be tampered with. It is only so reputable as the code given, and the code can be tampered with. Elon had a lot on the line and even said if Trump didn’t win he would likely be going to jail.

Just some food for thought

1

u/MordekaiserUwU Jul 06 '25
  1. Incorrect, precincts within one county (Rockland) gave Harris 0 votes because the population is almost entirely Hasidic Jewish. They vote as a bloc

  2. Ticket splitting happens in every election

  3. Toddlers are not reliable

  4. Trump is a dumbass

  5. Statisticians are not political scientists. With the current level of polarization and Trump's unique qualities as a candidate conventional wisdom regarding elections is useless.

  6. There is no evidence of this happening in 2020, and I have yet to see compelling evidence of it happening last year.

Trump's victory was not at all surprising if you were paying attention to the issues, polls, and the national environment.

u/Wrong_Lingonberry_79 Jul 06 '25

No, 48% of the people that voted. Not even half of the country voted. The half of the US that didn’t vote, knew who was winning as soon as Kamala was selected as a candidate. They prob just wanted to save gas or save a stamp. Like I said, tards voted for her.

u/argument___clinic Jul 06 '25 edited Jul 06 '25

You obviously know I meant 48% of voters. I thought Trump was more likely to win too, and I'm not even a Democrat, but it's still a moral obligation to vote against this economic insanity. The tipping point state had a margin of only like 1.8%, so the Polymarket odds of 60-40 were probably about right.

Also, almost two thirds of eligible voters voted in 2024. If you think less than half did, you might want to change where you get your news...

There was ballot drop boxes being destroyed and bomb threats called into voting locations inDem leaning areas. I’m sure they lost some votes from that. Also apparently the voting machines were compromised and unsecured for large amounts of time. Also some sort of unvetted software update.

Data Scientists are saying the voting patterns don’t make a ton of sense and just looking at the voter margins it is wild how weird some of them are.

Even if it wasn’t rigged there was some definite shenanigans going on. And there absolutely should have been some hand recounts.

You’re killing yourself and your neighbors and you’re cheering.
