I’m not at all sure they didn’t steal the 2024 elections. Didn’t Donald himself say the election was rigged. Didn’t he say he didn’t need any more votes. Didn’t he say to the Christian voters that if things go right they may never need to vote again?

We all know T lost in 2020. I still wonder why he pulled the massive charade that the election was broken. And if it were, he was the automatic winner. Given how phony that was, makes you wonder if he and his lieutenants had cheated, but did not cheat enough to pull it off. Then when it did not work, resorted to hammering the courts. His inability to accept the results of the 2020 elections should have been enough to prevent him from running again in 2024.

The real hypocrisy was that his lieutenants in the house and senate went along with his tirade. Yet they won their seats by the same voting system and had no complaints about that. Now that he wins they are trying to rig the system so their previous failure works next time.

Why didn't Democrats challenge the votes in 2024? There are more registered Democrats than registered Republicans . Yet results showed that only 64% of Democrats voted. I find that really hard to believe.

Does make you wonder. Frankly I think the Dems thought Harris had it in the bag and did not need to vote. Also a lot of apathy. Hopefully 2026 they wake up.

It does defy logic that 150 million voted out of 175m registered in 2024 and the final count was almost a coin toss at 49.8/48.3 in favor of Trump. For someone so universally disliked, it does defy logic he could win both popular count and the electoral count. What is equally shocking is that more women than men voted. You would have thought in that case abortion would have won women over. Guess many Repub women still think men are better in office.

I believe T’s message here is the election is rigged and doesn’t need any votes. He is pinning these and the veiled statement of NEVER needing to vote ever again, on his end game of becoming King, Dictator, or whatever the fuck BEFORE 2028! The midterms in 2026, win or lose, is a smoke screen he is gambling on to distract us from his ULTIMATE goal. Totalitarian Rule before Presidential elections. Congressional control loss in 2026 won’t matter by then, ALL HIS puppet people that are controlling Federal offices will be in place. More people need to look for this. Nothing he does makes sense! But this does…..

Does my vote count really holds a lot of interest for me. If a president is able to take office and lose the popular vote, no one’s vote counts. Trump should’ve never been in office if the popular vote were given any sort of influential power.

They did steal the 2024 election. See electiontruthalliance.org and smart elections.us. Many anomalies in election results that can only be explained by voting manipulation. Please see these two sites we need to verify by hand counts. Elon Musk said he wouldn’t trust an election that wasn’t hand counted since code was too easy to write to change the results. We need to wake up and verify 2024. You know Trump always projects what he is doing.

"America the not so brave"

Allowed the monsters in.

Those who stand against the scourge

No clue how to begin.

Begin to show resistance

Starting to fight back

To bumble in confusion

The courage that they lack.

Politicians, one and all

No longer have the nous

Which leaves us all in limbo

A floundering madhouse.

Ivana Trump was an immigrant when she married Donald and didn't become a citizen until 1988 after all three of Trump's oldest children citizens were born. This gives them birthright citizenship. If Trump pushes to stop birthright citizenship then Don Jr, Eric and Ivanka will be eligible for deportation.

Great show, David. Keep up the great show.

Trump factions will attempt to amend the constitution to allow him to run for another four years. By then it is highly likely that the US will be a full-blown fascist dictatorship, and you democracy will be a thing of the past. It is too bad, and a very sad state of affairs.

Trump is a fool. Nobody takes him seriously anymore. He will be dead in 4 years. He probably wont make it through this one

Trump won't live another 4 years, and then, God help us. Vance will be dictator.
