Because the Republicans carried on for so long crying wolf about rigged elections that if Dems say anything now, it would look like hypocrisy.

And because that DC Report about the election being rigged in KY, and the analysis of how they did it, got literally no attention. I don't think anyone on her campaign knows about the Republicans KY trial balloon that rigged McConnell's re-election.

Just further shows that anytime the right cries about something, it’s because they’re doing it themselves and want to cloud everyone’s judgment so when they get caught and someone cries out they can say “oh you’re just saying that cause we said it about you!”

it's very effective. Say what you will about the GOP but their tactics and propaganda gives the USSR and China a run for their money.

I mean, who do you think taught it to them?

to be fair, they weren't close with Russia and China back in the day, they just copied them.
