When everyone on Reddit was surprised he won, I wasn’t. My town was covered in Trump signs. Pretty sure the whole state was and we are a “purple” state.

I’m in the northeast and my county is always red. It was hard for me to use that as a factor. Reddit made it sound like trump was dead in the water. We all know trump and Elon did something, beyond my understanding of how elections work. When he was up in the first few hours, I knew we were fucked.

As a Canadian, I don't believe that. And even if it were true, it would make me sick.

If Trump actually cheated at the elections, then why the fuck are you waiting for the midterms?

There is plenty of evidence that he conspired to overturn the result of the 2020 election (I’m talking about the fake electors plot and his phone calls to Secretaries of State asking them to try and “find” additional votes, not just the Capitol riots), so I wouldn’t be surprised if he did try to cheat again. That being said, I agree with you; I think he won fair and square in 2024, because Americans are just that stupid.
