Trump got red mad when confronted by a real interview.
HE votes by mail. He’s nothing but a two-bit grifter who belongs on the side of the street. He’s racist, misogynistic, a liar, and a thief. Fuck him!
I am sick of hearing about rigged elections tbh. I heard it in the 2000s, in the 2010s, and the 2020s. It is always something! If the elections were rigged at scale, the opposing parties would not keep cycling and winning. Of course, gerrymandering is an issue and can throw off elections, but a state can only gerrymander so much if the population just abruptly flips. Also, WHAT HAPPENED TO RESPECTABLE CANDIDATES LIKE JFK AND THEODORE ROOSEVELT?! WHY do we keep voting for people like this?! Bruh. Something in the system needs to change.

I always wonder who is behind those one or two downvotes on things like this. Is it Miller or Bannon? I could see them trying to go onto lemmy to see what the left is thinking. It cracks me up. Maybe it’s eric?
Mystery down votes are a common internet phenomenon that, despite knowing it’s widespread, I’ve never quite been able to figure out. Accidental downvotes do happen, especially on mobile in my experience, but at nowhere near a frequent enough rate to explain down votes in the wild. In this case, there’s many possibilities! Are the downvotes from MAGAssholes? Is someone just blanket down voting because they don’t like the instance? Because they don’t like the community? Because they don’t like the user posting it? Because they don’t like the BBC as a source? Because they downvote every US politics thing they come across? Who knows!
In this case, butthurt conservatives, it would seem.
The person is complaining about rigged elections being fake news. Someone is going to be upset. Even if we see cycled parties, it isn’t proof there hasn’t been any trickery. In the US it would mean focusing on a specific battleground state.
Elon was heavily hinting at helping do funny shit, saying that Trump wouldn’t have won without him. I’ve seen reports from staticians talking about oddness about the last one.
So yeah I think there’s plenty to disagree about, even if you’re not MAGA.
I’m…confused. By “the person is complaining about rigged elections being fake news,” do you mean the journalist who challenged Trump on his claim? The specific exchange as indicated in the article was:
The pair then moved onto discussing that riot, and Trump was challenged after he repeated his unsubstantiated claim that the 2020 election was rigged.
Trump turned to the California primary elections, where votes are still being counted to determine which two candidates in a series of races - including governor of the state - will be on the ballot in November’s midterm elections.
He said the results had not been called after four days, adding: “They’re cheating on the election.”
“Do you have evidence to support that?” Welker responded.
“All I have to do is look, and I listen,” the president replied.
“But that’s not evidence,” she interjected.
I wouldn’t call that complaining about the entire idea of rigged elections being fake news, but rather challenging Trump to provide evidence for his own claims of specific elections being rigged, which he insulted the journalist and then ended the interview over instead of defending his claims with evidence.
