Simply unbelievable. Then again, it is tRump.

And of course, none of us are surprised. He tried to bribe the president of Ukraine, told his supporters to vote twice, encouraged voter intimidation, restricted funding for the post office, and openly talked about how he'd use the SCOTUS to throw out ballots.

Trump isn't subtle. The fact that he's pulling ANOTHER dictator move was expected.
 
It's not an assault on democracy. It's an assault on a parody of a democracy.

The lack of vote security in our system makes this election lack legitimacy regardless of who wins. It's become a joke.

Anything is possible, but this election had more mail-in votes than any other, so the fraud vulnerabilities are higher. And if mail-in voting becomes the norm, then there will be little legitimacy to any future elections until proper security is installed.

Show me where mail in balloting has a higher risk of fraud than any other form.

If we begin to vote online using the same blockchain concept that Bitcoin uses to self-regulate, every single vote cast could be tracked to a real person by anyone and tampering would be literally impossible.

Radical idea, I know.

Remember when John McCain gracefully lost to Obama in 2008? Those were the days.

I was remembering the other day about the McCain town hall where the elderly lady referred to Obama as a Muslim and how McCain set her straight.
This is the type of humanity that tRump does not have.

I actually agree with that, but until then....
