Trump Taking Credit Where None Is Due

The biggest areas of concern in illegal voting falls in the major metor areas and particularly inner cities areas in states without significant voter ID requirements. Often people are allowed to enter the polling places and cast ballots by simply declaring they are registered voters and furnishing a name for the polling place workers. There are no identification such as photo ID issued by a state or other political agency which would have required some kind of proof of eligibility. In many such places, there are coordinated 'get out the vote' activities in which literally bus loads of 'voters' are gathered in various locations and then transported to the designated polling places to enter in mass and vote. When non-citizens and or non-residents are permitted to vote, either in person or by electronic or mailin methods, there is no reliable way to prevent fraudulant ballots from being cast and counted.

The Dems (Hillary and DNC) and the green party (Stein at their sponsorship) filed legal actions to try to force 'recounts' in Michigan, Penn, Wisconsin, Florida based on allegations of these sorts of voting fraud, all based on the theory that certain precints which were highly Democrat dominated in terms of registration numbers prior to the election did not produce as many Dem votes as they had 'expected'. As the recounting proceeded, it did show up literally hundreds or a thousand or more votes wrongly cast or counted incorrectly. Ironcially, the results actually shorted Trump and longed Clinton in Wisconsin. When the recounting/rechecking process got going in Michigan and PA, it started suggesting some major voting irregularities in those states favoring Clinton over Trump. When the word got out, the Clinton campaign hastily sought Court relief to stop the process from going forward to keep the issue from being publicly divulged.

From my reading on the subject, it appears the biggest problems in terms of improper vote numbers are focused in certain counties, cities and precints. Chicago, Lousiana, Cleveland, Detroit, Palm Beach, etc are notorious for irregularities. A couple counties in the Cleveland OH area literally had more votes cast for Obama that there were registered voters and in Cayoga County, he actually received 100% of the votes it was reported. This is unquestiionably illegal voting.

The other area where there is grave concern about vote fraud is in the manipulation of the vote recordation and not so much the voter themselves - where a vote from Trump is actually recorded as a vote for Clinton or vice versa (although I have never read of any of the latter happening anywhere). This is the biggest problem with any kind of electronic or machine voting methods and would be glaring if ever they get to allowing electronic voting from home. There would simply be NO WAY to control who is voting in somekind of internet or telephonic scheme. In person with valid, uptodate photo ID with recently verified residence validation is the ONLY way to ensure that there is not wide spread disenfranchisement of the American voters.
You should share what you have been reading. It should be noted that it was Trump's lawyers that submitted filings in Michigan and Pennsylvania claiming no voting fraud occurred or could be found from Stein's recount, requesting the recount to be halted.

Pennsylvania filing

[not] a single Pennsylvania machine in any county, district, precinct, or ward that they actually believe was hacked
Michigan filing

All available evidence suggests that the 2016 general election was not tainted by fraud or mistake

Good lord man.

In just the three tweets you posted this morning, there is blatant factual misinformation doing on. Trump's twitter is propaganda.

  1. Non-sequitor. Again, it's still Obama's economy until late January.
  2. Trying to divert from the fact he paid millions of dollars to people because he stole their money w/ his fraudulent university. You settled because that was clear as day and you were dead in the water, idiot.
  3. That Kentucky plant was never going to leave.
Particularly annoying that the third one could be disproven with just the first two lines are my article.

And therein lies the challenge of a Trump presidency. You've got a president and his allies essentially running a disinformation campaign about EVERYTHING on a scale we've never before seen. He just straight up lies about everything, even the little things. Pushing back on it results in claims of liberal anti-Donald bias.

Sigh. It looks like that old joke about facts having a liberal bias is true now more than ever.

Well, it's still worth pushing back. The alternative is people relying on lies and propaganda. Which isn't very healthy for our democracy.

I find it interesting that this "win" forgets to detail the huge benefit Trump provides potentially to the SoftBank guys, by allowing the merger of Sprint and TMobile, which not only runs us into a huge FCC violation (and something that is a big hurt to the public) but also the number of jobs that will be lost due to this merger and duplicate jobs being cut.

He's playing a marble game with people- just moving them around, and sadly many are just going to take his word for it when he says there are now more marbles ... when really they're disappearing before our eyes, but because he publicizes the gains and absolutely ignores the loss he "wins". I am anxious for the job updates to come out monthly and see what Breitbart and Fox say then.

 
See, that's incredibly concerning even if not true.

People should not look to a hero-executive wielding the bully pulpit for public solutions. That is authoritarianism.

Something something Obama, something something vast overreach of executive power.

I did it! I just made a GOP talking point!

There's going to be a great deal of gaslighting and attempts to take reality hostage over the next four years, Zoogs. Those of us not satisfied with Trump will have to keep our heads screwed on straight in order to see things as they are.

 
I think he's talking about when he tweeted that the airplanes cost too much and everybody's stock tanked.

Just re-reading that it sounds absolutely incoherent.

 
This guy really is the most amazing negotiator. All he has to do is write one tweet and he has completely renegotiated an entire industries contracts.
