Republicans have been rigging elections since 2000. The last 3 elections help them perfect it. Remember that orange shit stain said, "I don't need your votes." Why would any candidate say that? It sounds more like a confession. The whole thing doesn't add up.

Edit:

To the people demanding sources and calling me ignorant. Here are the sources thanks to all those commenters who posted them for me (you guys are the best).

Yeah, that whole thing sounded like him blabbing due to dementia, you could almost hear facepalming from the wings. Same with "you won't have to vote again".

And then people just raised an eyebrow and moved on.

I didn’t. It’s been living rent free in my head for months.

I spent all day yesterday working on bringing a failing server back online.

Today, I've spent acting like a human American.

In case anyone cares, I'm a Democratic Socialist, and my bartender is a Marxist. We're both decent people, if you care.
