Why do we sometimes act like Trump supporters? [View all]

Heck, with all of the talk about voter fraud, some of the stuff I read here could have come out of own Trump's mouth.

Let's quit putting out BS that would make conspiracy theorists on the left and right fringe proud. Numerous exhaustive studies have all indicated that there is no massive voting fraud in our election system.

Is there voter suppression - yes, unquestionably - Republican controlled state governments are blatant in their use of this tactic. But except for a few isolated cases, there is absolutely no proof of voter fraud.

The integrity of our voting system is the pride of the world. Let's quit trying to tear it down because we don't like the results of the election. That's not rational and it is not productive. Let's figure out how to win instead.
