No, there isn't. Stop it. Over 40 lawsuits were thrown out on the basis of absolute lack of merit.

There has literally not been a single case of "evidence" that hasn't been debunked and considered to be a laughable and ill-intended piece of lies.

It baffles me that so many people fall for what Trump says. He was already declaring fraud weeks before the election because he knew exactly how it would pan out. People described exactly what he would do and he did it. He declared he won on the election night before all votes were counted. It is so blatantly explicit that he is lying, gaslighting, and deceiving people that it amazes me how so many intelligent, educated people fall for this crap.

The fact he is a conman, legally has been found so (Trump university, his own charity, two easy examples off the top of my head but there are plenty more) and yet this is the man they believe?

It's a true sickness in this country. I don't know what it is, the racism, or what. Why seemingly functional people are taken in so easily by an obvious conman.

7 months ago 80% of democrats weren't confident that the election would be free and fair. Most of them seem happy to accept the result now.

I think this is human nature rather than a flaw with members of a particular party but I think it is worthwhile for people to compare their own views before and after the election.

Already 7 months ago evidence was seen of Trump rationalizing away future losses. He mobilized plans to defund the Postal Service, deligitimize drop-off ballots, and claim that the Democrats were going to engage in fraud.

I'm sorry but that's just not it, at least not this time. When you have a narcissistic psychopath that needs to feed his ego, and army of yes-men who have no regards for laws and ethics, it pays to be extra careful. It was partially because of this dilligence that plans to remove drive-by ballot drop-offs by Republicans were thwarted.

Of course they were not confident. Do you recall all the actions taken by Republicans to try to suppress votes? A lot of work had to be done by Democrats and some Republicans to make sure there was no vote suppression.

Lindsey Graham said out loud and clear on Fox News that Republicans must do something about votes by mail otherwise they will never be able to elect another Republican. He doesn’t seem to believe they can win without suppressing votes.

The election isn't fair, be it from voter suppression, gerrymandering, reduction of polling places and ID issuance locations, voter roll purging, etc, etc.

Latest example:

That still doesn't mean there was any fraud.

*Over 50.

They haven't had a single win. There hasn't been any substantiated claims. Zero. No evidence of wide spread voter fraud has appeared.

Yet they continue with these talking points.

Polite society needs to say "Enough!" to these liars who are tearing apart our democracy in service of Donald Trump, of all people.
