“In a tweet that has been shared hundreds of thousands of times, President Donald Trump claimed that 2.7 million ‘Trump votes’ across the country were deleted due to Dominion voting machines. The president also claimed that hundreds of thousands of votes were switched from him to Joe Biden,” but experts have determined “there is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised,” Seattle-based KING-5 TV reported on Monday, November 16, 2020.

Look, four things are true here.
One, Trump is a notorious, prolific, shameless liar. Two, this is a free country and you can believe him if you want to. But, three, believing something doesn’t make it true, and four, the fact you choose to believe Trump’s b.s. doesn’t entitle you to get your way.
Go ahead, challenge the election results in court. But remember, when you get to court, you can’t just say stuff; you have to prove your allegations. And when you can’t, because they’re not true, you’ll lose in court, too.
Meet Trump’s top election lawyer, Rudy Giuliani!
Aside from doing hand counts in all 50 states and comparing the hand counts to the results given by the machines you have no proof one way or the other that the numbers are accurate. Some dead voted yet again in this election as they have every election. I do hope they are grateful. We do have some locations that are less clean than others. Washington State being a progressive state when created election process is amazingly clean and the political machines were no where as powerful here and in other states and cities. Yes the Daley machine in Chicago lives on and probably will for another generation as to be in office in the Windy City it sure helps to be a Democrat even if in name only. Getting proof of some political flim flams takes time and the Presidential political process does not allow time to come up with the level of evidence being demanded by some of the judges, and to come up with the evidence the Republicans would need the use of the discovery process to find the evidence. So dirty politics is alive and well in the US.
There may now be a new kind of serious voter suppression. Such suppression can happen when voters are purged from the voter roles. Though county clerks should have methods to remove the dead, non longer citizens, moved, criminal from the roles. This year tens of millions voted before I even got a ballot. While the turn out was large between the medias one sidedness and voters on one side thinking it was over since it was mostly Democrats voting early their battle was already lost These voters may not have cast a vote, but also may not have written a check, or gone to knock on doors thinking the cause was lost. It may well be necessary to tell big tech that at least some platforms are equivalent to being the county courthouse lawn and are open venues on all views, and topics and is a free speech zone and it is the readers responsibility to read or not read, and do what they will with the information and big tech cannot censor this area unless they wish to take on all the trappings of being a publisher and are then responsible for what is said on their network by employees and anyone saying stuff on their network.
I don’t have to prove anything. The burden is on Trump to disprove the official election results. Privately owned social media platforms are not public squares, and government can’t tell them to censor their users, or prevent them from doing so.
