The 2024 election was obviously rigged, they talked openly about it, as they were doing it. The MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries decided to ignore it, and here we fucking are.
Pretty sure 2020 was rigged too (which is why Trump was so sure of it: it was incomprehensible to him that he rigged it and still managed to lose anyway), which means the Democrats had a full half-decade to do something about it and set around with their thumbs up their asses instead.
