Surely you realize how disingenuous this statement is? Trump's mantra of "the media is conspiring against me, the polls are all rigged, the election will be stolen from under us" is a far cry from anything we've seen in previous years. This has nothing to do with electronic voting machines. This is straight FUD in the most primal possible sense.
- Alex3917 10y ago> This is straight FUD in the most primal possible sense. Trump may be saying it for the wrong reasons, but he's absolutely right that the integrity of the election is in doubt.
- archagon 10y agoNo, he's not. Not in the way he's saying it. Every single poll is showing him losing at this point. Many political leaders, including those in his own party, have dismissed his claims as nonsense. As he always does whenever he's embarrassed in public, he's simply laying blame for his failure on something — anything! — outside his own incompetence. Unfortunately, his core supporters lap it right up.
- st3v3r 10y agoNo, he absolutely is not. He is acting as a giant crybaby, and he will continue doing so after the election, with disastrous consequences.
- serge2k 10y agoHe's absolutely not right. It's fine to question things, but just saying "it's in doubt" with no argument is just Trump style FUD.
- leshow 10y agoSaying the election is rigged with zero evidence is "saying it for the wrong reasons"
