    OF COURSE he is. This strategy almost worked for him last time, and there are still enough window lickers around who believed him. I doubt there's a rational person on this planet who didn't expect him to repeat this bullshit.

    But of course the voter fraud only happens against Trump. He can win any election and that's not voter fraud, but if he loses, it must be a conspiracy.

    THIS. IS. CHILDISH. BEHAVIOR.

    If your children played sports and this was how they acted every time they lost, I would hope you'd be mature enough to try and nip it in the butt. But since it's Trump and we're only talking about one of the most powerful offices on the planet, it's encouraged and celebrated.

    This is NOT the behavior of a man who should have any more power than one of those people who calls in the temperature and weather conditions to the National Weather Service. He'd still lie about that too, probably tell them it was sunny and 85 degrees when it was snowing and 15 degrees, but it wouldn't really hurt anyone.

    Even before 2016 election he said the entire US elections system is rigged. He is the biggest whiner the world has ever known.

    Yes. Petulant.

    Some sports fans always whine about the referees every time their team loses, but Trump whines BEFORE the game is played.

    Some people eating up the conspiracy and victim mentality, cognitive dissonance is alive and well in 28% of America. Sinclair Group, Fox, Newsmax, etc. are a cancer with their propaganda.

    I've heard him say that too.

    And that's great news.

    The more he attacks the electoral system and trots out his conspiracy theories, the greater his political fall from grace will be.

    The lessons of the midterms have not been learned.

    And the more he says there will be cheating, the easier it will be to tell R voters to stay home. Because their votes won’t count anyway.

    I was wondering about that, too. After he wins the Iowa caucus and the NH primaries, crickets about voter fraud. From the Trump fans in social media and on this forum: Crickets about voter fraud. From Fox News: Crickets about voter fraud.

    Now, can you imagine the tantrum if he had lost? Of course, he and his fanclub would have accused Haley of stealing the nomination. How people can not see through this thin veil is astonishing to me.

    If you think hard enough, you, too, will be able to understand why "election integrity" is only a concern to Trump and his fans when he loses.

    Well, I would if the strawman was a worthy one but it sucks. Maybe find someone to help (you know you have to ;)), sometimes it worked for Trump the last time he whine "wolf"! :handshake:, some people ended up in the big house and with plea deals.

    Just means that your deflection from the actual facts of the OP are not a really good one because you won't actually address the OP thread topic which is Trump and his base only whine about stolen elections when he loses. That could be considered a form of cognitive dissonance triggered by the flagbearer or "rules for thee but not for me" thinking.

    Maybe, just maybe, if you hadn't pulled silly stunts, like insulting everyone's intelligence and disrespecting them by pretending you became a Democrat, posters would treat you with more respect? That's why your complaining about disrespecting community guidelines rings hollow.

    In any case, back to the topic, which is the Trump only whining about election integrity when he doesn't like the result. It's very clear to see for everyone but the ones immersed in the RW echo chamber.

    I addressed the topic. I said its ridiculous, you complain now that he hasnt said voter fraud. You complain when he claims voter fraud, and now you complain when he doesn't.

    You ignored all obvious RECENT historical facts in your "address". Facts, Trump only cries 'wolf" when he loses and for whatever reason, it's echoed by his support.

    Anything you want to discuss about the actual topic??? Why should Trump have claimed voter fraud in his two victories? Do you know something the rest of us don't?

    You're framing a different issue still not addressing the OP.

    I have my own theory about Trump's behavior and his base. It is completely a completely copy and paste version of religion. A large percentage of Trump supporters are religious, mainly evangelical/fundamentalist Christian. His whole shtick is copying those religions, where anything bad that happens is blamed on the "devil" and anything miraculous is, of course, God's doing. In a Trump supporters mind, Trump is seen as the savior for America, and as such, any wrongdoing is someone else's doing but any good thing is, of course, due to Trump's greatness. Trump is essentially just copying the religious mantra in the US, which explains the 'cult-like' following.
    Watch this, which Trump has promoted:
    Trump is 'God', to many of his supporters, but it is just an extension of their already established religious practices. A video posted by someone in another thread about interviews being held outside a Trump rally showed a reporter asking Trump supporters what their favorite book to read was, and at least half of them stated it was the Bible. This seems to explain a lot to me.

    Not to worry .. Trump is not going to lose .. at which point "Election Integrity" will be a huge concern to the Prog Blue Cancel Crew. .. like the last time Trump won .. tried to blame it on "Russia Russia Russia" .. as if Putin is one of the major influencers in our electoral process .. and that our electoral process was harmed by bad Vlad. If Trump wins we will have 4 more years of Mueller Witch hunting and Political Kangaroo clown show to watch.
