Trump is already laying the groundwork to dispute the results of another election, leveling baseless charges of interference as his own federal election interference case progresses.

Former President Donald Trump has never stopped propagating falsehoods that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him. But now, he is increasingly turning his attention to pre-emptive claims the 2024 election is being rigged to prevent him from returning to the White House.

This year, Trump and his campaign have cited more than a dozen examples of so-called election interference activities by Americans to claim the coming election is being unfairly manipulated. But as general election voting begins around the country, the campaign has provided no evidence of actual cheating and no specific allegations related to potentially illegal efforts by Americans to tamper with this fall’s election proceedings.

To be fair, it's ridiculous that it took so fucking long for all of his crimes to get to trial. All this shit should've been happening in 2020 or 2021.

Then Canon, who is obviously corrupt and not impartial, starts mucking with the law.

And the Republicans that lose this year will do everything in their power to create as many lawsuits as possible so they can't possibly be worked out by next Jan. And they'll draw out those to avoid having to provide evidence and that will be the justification for the next insurrection attempts, likely widespread ones at all levels of government.

My hope is that Trump loses the election completely and decisively then Trump restarts his election interference bullshit and his bail gets revoked. The orange bastard should spend the rest of his days behind bars.
