      Trump said months before the election that he’s got it covered and he isn’t worried about it. Why would that be? He told us what he was doing at the time, his people were rigging it.

        I also strongly believe in their use of projecting as a preemptive defensive strategy.

        They say “you cheated you cheated you cheated!” so we reply “you’re nuts there’s no evidence, it’s all a conspiracy theory” so then they can cheat later on and turn it around on you when you go to investigate. “Oh now it’s true because you lost? Yeah yeah yeah…”

        They’re always playing psychological warfare with the population… :(

          Why can’t we do psychological warfare on them? I thought they were so much dumber than us.

            They already believe it’s happening to them which is why they refuse to listen to any source of information that isn’t from their preferred brand.

            There are plenty of intelligent MAGA that just have an innate bias that they want to have confimed so they allow themselves to be convinced by mis/disinformation. To admit you were wrong, or to accept that you misunderstood actually creates a “pain” type response that people are very adverse to, there are also the types that have so entrenched themselves in their political beliefs that it becomes their identity. This form of physiological warfare I mentioned is just one way of allowing these people to maintain their identity and to give them a “valid” defense against inconvenient information.

            Over time a person can be chipped away at, but if you always give them an answer then they never have to suffer the thought that they were ever wrong about anything so they can remain on “your side.”

        A strongmen is elected for seeming strong. Of course he will say beforehand that he is certain that he will win. Saying anything else would harm is brand and make less people vote for him. Trump claiming to be successful at anything and everything also isn’t something new for him. He did that his entire (adult) life.

        This is evidence for Trump being a narcissist and liar, but with the amount of lies, delusional and nonsensical claims he makes, this can be hardly taken as evidence for election fraud.

        And even:

        Yes, Trump said Musk knows vote-counting computers ‘better than anybody’

        He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide.

        The idiot can’t keep his mouth shut and basically blabbed exactly what they were doing, yet nobody really listened.

        It will never cease to astound me.

      It definitively is, he similar to trump dies not have a filter. He just counts on things being ambiguous enough that won’t affect him.
