Trump already spreading false claims about voter fraud in Pennsylvania

Source: The Independent

12 hours ago


As Election Day nears, Donald Trump has shared false and exaggerated claims about the integrity of the vote in the key swing state of Pennsylvania.

In a Truth Social post on Monday evening, Trump claimed multiple counties in Pennsylvania were experiencing major potential fraud, outpacing the facts on the ground.

“Wow! York County, Pennsylvania, received THOUSANDS of potentially FRAUDULENT Voter Registration Forms and Mail-In Ballot Applications from a third party group,” Trump told his millions of followers. “This is on top of Lancaster County being caught with 2600 Fake Ballots and Forms, all written by the same person. Really bad “stuff.” WHAT IS GOING ON IN PENNSYLVANIA??? Law Enforcement must do their job, immediately!!! WOW!!!”

The former president is closer to the truth in regard to York County. There, officials said last week they had received an unusually large volume of election-related materials, including voter registration forms and mail-in ballot applications, from an unnamed third-party group. Local officials said they’re still reviewing the materials and called on the public not to rush to conclusions.

And he's lashing out, a textbook example of what someone does when they know they're facing defeat.

He's going to get more and more unhinged over the next 6 days.

5. If Pennsylvania has stopped these as illegal and fraudulent, then there isn't any problem.

MSM never brings this up.

Take your pick.

Lost jobs and lost lives due to COVID
Losing popular vote to Clinton
Losing popular and elector vote to Biden
Losing civil and criminal court cases
Failed marriages
Bankruptcies
Dissolution of 1980s USFL
Never receiving an Emmy
Not awarded Nobel Peace Prize
etc.


Trump never takes the responsibilities for his failures

There is a certain pathology that never takes responsibilities for one's failures and likes to take credit for other people's successes.
