Let’s face it, there are only two ways we avoid disaster in November. Either Mother Nature intervenes, or we beat the crap out of him in the election. There is no third choice.
“When RNC co-chair and Trump daughter-in-law Lara Trump blasted out a robocall last week claiming “massive fraud” in the 2020 election, it was a continuation of one of the great long cons in history. Four years and counting …”
Allegations of election fraud, cheating and attacks on the mechanics and rules of voting going forward will be a permanent fixture, before, during and after every election.

This, Sanger writes, meant Trump’s view of Ukraine was “essentially identical” to that of Vladimir Putin, the Russian president who would order an invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, a year after Trump left office.
