Sam Stone your rhetoric shows what kind of person you are. The only evil is coming from the GOP. Feel sorry for yourself I am absolutely fine Don’t worry because it’s going to be a movie watching trump bringing down DeSantis; unfortunately there are secrets that will be revealed and trump has a chain on many of the so called relevant GOP lawmakers neck. What is done in the dark eventually will come to light and anyone that has the nerve to oppose trump as DeSantis has done lately will definitely be exposed. They are like little girls trying to outdo each other. Get the popcorn


Lets see remember when conspiracy theories people said cnn was spreading conspiracy about trump colluded with russia ----- what you know cnn was lieing---- remember when conspiracy theories said covid came from a lab and dr fauci say no the US doesnt spend money there on gain of function research again the conspiracy theories was right---- remember when cnn was spreading false conspiracy theory's about judge kavanagh being a gang rapist wrong again---- remember when conspiracy theories people said there was fraud in the 2020 election 1200 cases was tried and sentenced but cnn says that isnt enough cases to prove fraud---- remember when conspiracy theories people said Arizona would have election problems this week because the lady over the election is also running---- remember when we were told Arizona has the best working and secure voting machines in the world thats was a conspiracy theory


Bobby Sterling No, the media uses propaganda. Both sides. There's absolutely no one that can argue different and win. So move past that. The 2020 election was shady as we all know clearly. I don't think it was fraud but only because no one got caught so the evidence isn't fully there. By taking the info blindly from the MSM it shows your inability to distinguish fact from emotion. Alex Jones turned out to be right on sooooo many things. He definitely was wrong about alot also. Alex Jones exposed alot of things, thats why they got rid of him. He was a threat to the media. Same reason the media is attacking Twitter now. Again, anyone who blindly accepts any one type of news is a fool to me. You didn't answer the only question though. What didn't you like about Trump?


While we certainly DO need to avoid BASELESS accusations/conspiracies (unlike Watergate), to a degree I can understand WHY people get suspicious/make accusations.
Your candidate is either doing very well in the polls or is ahead/very close in votes on Election Day. Then, overnight or in the next few days after the polls close, a large number of mail in/dropped off ballots are counted, with a disproportionately high number going to the opponent, it makes some people ask WTF?
I think it is the combination of:
1. Disproportionate percentage of mail in votes for the “other guy”, compared to in person votes
2. The appearance that it occurs behind closed doors after hours
3. And the “oh, he was ahead and NOW he’s behind” perception that fuels these concerns.


Lyndsey Anne First some states don’t allow ballot counting to begin until after polls close; and second those states that have extensive or all almost exclusively mail-in/absentee ballots require significant manual ballot reviews prior to machine reading and processing of ballots.

Also, for someone to mail-in vote for someone who didn’t vote; they have to first get that person’s unique barcoded ballot, they then to know how they signed their voter registration and drivers license/ID card, and then they have to be able to accurately forge their signature. And they have to be sure that person didn’t vote, because only one barcoded ballot is allowed per registered voter.


Alex Tracy really if you paid attention you would hear Trump and his lawyers make a lot of crazy claims to the media. It's legal to lie to the media. When Trump's lawyers were o. Court they wouldn't repeat their election lies. Because lying in court can get you in a lot of trouble. And Alex Jones admitted in court he was a fraud. He admitted he just told lies for money. And you still believe he was honest. Now I see you are living in a fantasy world. You are one of the real kooks. You have shown your not a reality fan.


I trust the elections -truly I do lol but, have to say it's always odd this takes so much time. The reason they say it takes time is that they are checking signatures. I'm wondering what they check the signatures to? Because I change my signature sometimes and I know many who do that as well. Even banks don't check signatures that much any more. Are they experts in signature testing? If they find a signature they don't like do they call that person up and ask them to come in and re do the signature? I dunno it just seems so odd to me and not hearing this procedure from many other states. I just asking but, in no way judging that this is suspicious I'm just curious how that works. I feel they are saying they are especially meticulous but, I'm wondering if they really have experts who can tell the difference of certain signatures. Maybe it's just seeing if they signed it which then I could totally understand. Again, just curious.


Sam Stone you are not listening to your party lawmakers, some even call social security “an entitlement” if that is not a cue then I don’t know what you have been listening to. The House has not been determined yet, but one thing it is certain, even if Republicans take the house there are enough decent Republicans that already said that they are not for McCarthy crazy plans; so good luck trying to impeach everybody and having a circus. “Y’all” are the ones that are shooting each other. Trump has files on the most predominant republicans and if they step away from him watch what happens next. He already started with DeSantis the Republican Party needs a rebirth, a huge percentage is decent and hardworking and they do not want the extreme right wing crazy MAGA in their party.
Good luck to you
Have a blessed day
