26. As I've said before, SOMETHING happened on election day.

I don't pretend to be savvy enough to know what the hell the Russians, the Trump camp and/or others did, but I know in my gut that SOMETHING happened. I will go to my grave thinking this because I live and work around all Republicans. Even THEY were insistent that Hillary was going to win. Even THEY saw what a dumbass, inept jackass Donald Trump was.

I can't wait for the first time that Hillary speaks out.

I am open to this possibility, but the problem is there's no hard evidence for this Fast Walker 52 Jan 2017 #3
They cheat and will always cheat. We outnumber them so that's the only way they can "win" brush Jan 2017 #4
I know, and they control the fucking media too Fast Walker 52 Jan 2017 #5
And that, in a nutshell is how they won. Dr Hobbitstein Jan 2017 #7
I think our number 1 goal has to be to get control of the media Fast Walker 52 Jan 2017 #14
Indeed. Dr Hobbitstein Jan 2017 #16

It's actually the same as the Trump strategy forjusticethunders Jan 2017 #25
Yep. And pretending one thing is 'off the table' or 'impossible' is head in the sand folly. nt LaydeeBug Jan 2017 #28
I'm not 100% there was direct hacking of machines forjusticethunders Jan 2017 #35

and that evidence is where? Fast Walker 52 Jan 2017 #63
That's were the machines are set, they don't have to hack individual machines when they can hack uponit7771 Jan 2017 #66
maybe this is what cummings was talking about. mopinko Jan 2017 #6
That's my point. If you've worked elections before... LaydeeBug Jan 2017 #13

Your insistence that there is no proof flies in the face of the news... LaydeeBug Jan 2017 #58
