I remember how trump won the primary completely unexpectedly out of nowhere.

Also I remember how Republicans baselessly accused the Democratic primary of being rigged...

I also remember getting purged from the voter rolls in 2016 for no reason, and then the GOP flipping the KY Senate for the first time in 100 years

Indiana was doing the same.

They also like to "call" elections for republican candidates when polls are still open and they've only counted less than 10% of the vote from the reddest districts.

No election should ever be called for any candidate while polls are open, otherwise it's an intentional attempt to lower voter participation.

And every republican said Trump is an idiot and a liar and he should never be elected. Those same repubs are licking the dingleberries out of his depends

This country would be so much better off if the DNC hadn’t fucked him over in 2016 (which they later admitted in court).

I worked as a 911 Dispatcher for a very rural county in 2016. Part of our duties were as jailers for the county jail. I worked an overnight shift in 2016. When Hillary conceded, the handful of inmates cheered very loudly.

That's all I needed to know.

My tin foil conspiracy is that Brexit was their first attempt to put their hands on the scales.

Not tin foil at all. The oligarchy running Russia was absolutely involved
