It’s like watching an SNL skit, except it’s kinda funny.

It's not that far a leap from "this investigation into my associates must end" to "these election results are invalid"...and this group has already prepped to call an election false before.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that the elections will probably still go to DeSantis and Scott and yet he's still foaming at the mouth about this. I imagine he either doesn't understand that they're in the pole positions--something that's realistically possible, of course--or that, as you intimated about, he just always needs to be in control of the narrative and is prepping his, "See, I told you!" tweet after the races are finally called for the GOP.

I’m beginning to believe bill Maher is right in that trump won’t leave even if voted out.

It’s not like it’s only him saying it. Rubio, the Party messaging....its a really weird amount of angst for a count that appears totally in your favor.

So either they realllly don’t want the ballots looked at too closely...or we are using this as an opportunity to reintroduce “mass voter fraud” fantasies for later use.

This is probably it. I think most would agree that taking more than a week to get through counting votes cold be improved upon. Sounds like the solution is to increase the number of polling places, modernize voting technologies, make it easier to register, come up with simpler ways to verify mail-in ballots, increase the visibility and stature of community organizations that help people get to the polls...I am suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Spoiler: show
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure


Trump and co. would support measures like that.

Sometimes I think Lindsey Graham isn't so bad and sometimes I think he's the worst ever. I don't get him.

More and more.

You could argue that this is a 2018 Midterms discussion, but it absolutely is a Trump Party one...and a revelation about what to expect in 2020.

I think the country was getting too partisan years ago, but now we’ve gotten so unbelievably tribal that elections only get in the way of ensuring the tribe is in power. There’s only a very short hop away from merely declaring votes don’t count if Republicans don’t win.

They're all correct, but of all the nonsense Trump has instigated, I think this one has the best chance of playing out organically in the favor of democracy. The Dems will likely start drafting some sort of legislation that will ensure our elections are more secure in the future, or at least they will if they know what the hell they're doing. And either the legislation will pass, or it will be incredibly easy to spin its defeat as the GOP trying to undermine our election security. Pretty tough for them to fumble this one, actually. Which, you know, doesn't mean it's impossible...
