The thing that bugs me more than anything else about the way Trump and Republicans are trying to undermine the election results: months ahead of the election people explained that the *exact* situation that played out... would play out.

So much of Trump’s incoherent speech today was him going “how did this haaaaappen?! I had a lead! And then IT JUST DISAPPEARED! Seems suspicious!”

But... just... we knew this was how the results would trend! https://www.vox.com/2020/11/2/21544854/red-blue-mirages-vote-count

In the states Trump’s throwing a fit about, the Republican legislatures in them made a choice to block people from counting mail-in votes until election day (and in some PA counties, until the day after).

That’s why people were like “so there’s a thing called the ‘red mirage.’”

This guy had laid out exactly what would happen, why it would happen and why it wasn’t an irregularity.

Anyone arguing Trump’s point is either a liar or they’re stupid.

So whenever you hear someone go “uh, but... irregularities!” ask if they’re lying or if they’re stupid. Those are the two options.
