So Trump is literally now a dictator. He claimed to have “already won” when he was still losing both the popular vote and electoral college. And today he’s executing what’s been his open plan for weeks, to announce with no basis that mail-in votes for Biden are “a fraud.”— Natalie Wynn (@ContraPoints) November 4, 2020

Damn, voting for Biden didn't work. Can't believe electoral institutions weren't on my side. I've exhausted all posibilities so I'll just do nothing

    the election is close enough that reps are gonna fight it but the thought that trump is not gonna leave and go full dictator once the political establishment decides biden won is pretty silly. the one thing the owners cant take is some dummy rocking the boat, you are allowed to huff and puff and even steal an election but only as long as you dont rock the illusion bourgeois democracy is built upon.

    EDIT: liberal democracy can of course drop the mask as has happened in other nations, but i don't think america is there at all as far as this election is concerned.

      yeah they're going to fight it tooth and nail, but trump will eventually acquiesce, because this is the most comfortable position for him, since he gets what he was looking for in 2016 twice over: An opportunity to whine about electoral fraud every single fucking day.
