Trump's Been Ramping Up His Election Attacks For Over A Month | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

  1. Trump use to say the exact same thing to his teachers in school before taking a test.
    Trump: “Just so you know, the only way I’m going to fail this test, is if the test is rigged.”

  2. The conservative Heritage Foundation has an interactive map the has tracked all cased of voter fraud since 1982. Out of Billions of votes cast there are only 1,298 Proven instances of voter fraud. It is roughly 0.00000006%. Trump is trying to divert everyone from the over 200,000 COVID-19 deaths and stay in power.This isn’t about supporting a political party or even a political candidate. It’s about saving our democracy at the polls: the right to vote and have that vote counted and a peaceful transition of power. Vote as early as possible (vote.org), complete the census and help two people outside your household to do the same. It’s Now or Never – for Everyone. Thank you

    1. God will bless you, many times over, for the work you are doing today! I bless you, for your work in fighting for Truth!

    2. It may have been only 1,300 cases in the last 40 years but this time it will be millions! Or billions. Maybe even trillions. Nobody knows. Believe me.

    3. The sad truth, of course, is that this nonsense works with his base.
      It now seems that Trump is laying the groundwork for contesting the election results. His vilification of vote-by-mail has opened a scary avenue: because of his rhetoric that’s been going on for months railing against mail-in ballots, as well as his playing down the corona virus, one can expect that a lot more Democratic voters are going to mail in their votes than Republican voters. He therefore is going to do all in his power (including all sorts of dirty tricks) to stop mail-in ballots from being counted, knowing that this will affect more Democratic votes than Republican ones.

      Trump is spot on saying that “this is going to be the scam of all times” – just, as usual, he’s projecting, *he* is the one performing this scam.
      Jesus, I hope that people cast their votes in troves to chase him (and his Republican enablers) out of office, and that the courts retain a minimal level of decency to not side with him and turn the US into an autocratic nightmare.

    1. He doesn’t want to leave the WH because the SDNY prosecutors are lining up to put him in chains. Go America!!

  3. The great one is the biggest disaster, that’s ever happened to the United States of America. We need to sweep him away like he says our forests need cleaning. VOTE !

  4. The sad part about him is that he has convinced himself that his statements are true and his policy’s are working.

    1. When a person tells lies as long as he has will start to believe their own lies. It also sounds like he speaks from experience from how he won the presidency when he ran against Hillary.

    1. Well, the Civil War and the Great Depression were kinda worse… though we haven’t seen the full extent of Trump’s damage yet. Aside from whatever is coming around the corner, there is the environmental damage.

    2. When are the Republican Senators Senators going to stand up and say enough is enough. Do they not know if they get rid of him he will have no power he’ll be in prison

    1. That’s not the problem… He is working to guarantee that he doesn’t lose. One plan, is getting Republican legislatures in swing states to install loyal Trump electors for the Electoral College vote, on the false premise that the state’s popular vote cannot be trusted due to mail in ballots. If this doesn’t work, he’s going to use the Supreme Court, which is already stacked in his favor, to throw out the mail in ballots, or to stop counting them. He’s cheating.

    2. @Gerald Sutton I just hope at least two conservative Justices see through it. Roberts, and Gorsuch. They’re the two with most morals.

  5. Paranoia and Projection oozing from Trump’s convoluted, criminal mind. VOTE BIDEN-HARRIS and win the World relief from this insane, dangerous man.🕊

    1. @KungFlu BatSoup You too as you used the wrong your instead of you’re as in you are either foreign or smart. The use of an and a is used as so, a before a word with a consonant and an before a word with a vowel or vowel sounding word. I like how you picked up on the a and an thing. Weird reading things misspelled.

  6. Trump acts like we never had a election before. Just because he doesn’t understand something doesn’t mean no one else does.

    1. “Just because he doesn’t understand something doesn’t mean no one else does.” …doesn’t mean _most_ people do 👍👍

  7. “the mail-in ballots are a disaster”? … so says trump.
    What about trump’s Covid response?
    Now that’s a disaster!

    1. Trump is a national embarrassment. Period. Trump is unique among malignant narcissists in his low intelligence, inability to absorb through reading, and difficulty with articulation. Even non-political malignant narcissists (like Ted Bundy or Jim Jones) had very high IQ’s, were literate, well read, and highly articulate.
