Discussion: Trump Rails Against Media For Blowing Up His 'Rigged' Election Remark

1 Like

Trump called the recent appeals court ruling that North Carolinaā€™s voter ID law was intended to discriminate against African-American voters ā€œa tremendous lossā€ to the state.

Rigged = non-whites can vote.

Itā€™s much more ego-driven than that.
More like ā€œDonald Embarrassed = Riggedā€

If youā€™re going to recycle your material, at least make it one of your greatest hits. No one cares about your B side materialā€¦

Umā€¦no one is voting ten times a day.

Itā€™s painfully obvious he doesnā€™t know what heā€™s talking about. Heā€™s just a dumb, terrible person in Joshā€™s vernacular.

And he doesnā€™t care to become knowledgeableā€¦not when throwing verbal sh*t bombs is so much more fun.

Guess that visit from the Secret Service heavies must have worked. If there couldnā€™t be any more 2nd Amendment malarkey, we have to something else to rail about.

(Anyone want to put money on the rant shifting back to 2A ā€œmisinterpretationā€ in a couple of days? I figure his handlers have an effective window of about 24-48 hours max before he blows againā€¦)

ā€œTrump urged them to turn out to vote on Nov. 9.ā€

Dumbest. Human. Ever.

Itā€™s a wonder he doesnā€™t forget to breatheā€¦

Iā€™ve worked as an election inspector for almost 15 years. The idea that simple voter impersonation fraud is widespread is ridiculous.

Actually, isnā€™t that a pretty good suggestion for Trump supporters, given that the election is on the 8th?

Donnie Drumpf has more rails than all the US railroads combined.
Fitting for such an epic trainwreckā€¦

Thatā€™s not in quotes, so it could be a typo (this is TPM, after all), but it would make me so happy if that was what he said.

Rigged
Corrupt
Establishment

I almost reflexively cringe and prepare myself for an onslaught of privileged grievances whenever I hear any of the above words, but especially in the same paragraph.

Trump just steals words/phrases heā€™s heard others use and then runs with them almost like a toddler repeating a new word thatā€™s fun to say yet is meaningless to him. I think his thought process is something like, ā€œBernie said ā€˜riggedā€™ a lot, so Iā€™ll say it and his voters will like me.ā€ Not that there was an ounce of validity to some of the things Bernie referred to as rigged either, but the rigged system Sanders was initially lamenting in his campaign is precisely one in which voter ID laws exist. Trump doesnā€™t understand that. He just blindly applies rigged to anything that threatens his dominance and thinks Bernie voters will somehow view him as a fellow traveler. He really IS that stupid, and truly believes voters are too.

Itā€™s always about him, isnā€™t it?? Heā€™s the baby at every baptism, the bride at every wedding, and the corpse at every funeral. Itā€™s a pathology.

Donnie, Donnieā€¦if ya make an outrageous comment then you should expect a strong response. The election isnā€™t rigged. The truth is you are blowing it all on your own. By continuing your relentless slew of indefensible BS you are gutting any chance of not only wining the election but of ever being allowed to eat lunch anywhere but trump towerā€™s eatery.
Donnie most folks, when they find themselves in a hole, quit digging and try to find a way out. YOUR solution is to increase the speed of your digging. You respond to criticism by whining like a 3 year old tossing a hissy fit. It is most unbecoming for a 70 yer old man to do this.

"Trump urged them to turn out to vote on Nov. 9, telling them, ā€œYou have absolutely nothing to lose. Believe me.ā€

Uh, they do if they vote on November 9th. Election Day November, 8th.

There is a pathology that trump exhibits

This is what the experts have to say about NPD. Take a look at the description and see if it fits trump or not.

Mea Culpa.

So if he is true to his past behavior what Trump is telling his Trumpets is that they should go out and vote 10 times.

Mark my word, there will be a rash of voter fraud in November with Trump voters trying to vote multiple times.
