None of the declassified information supports the claim that any previous election results — including the 2020 presidential contest that Trump lost — were manipulated by foreign interference or fraud in a way that would’ve changed the outcome.

Yup, dementia addled moron is full of shit. What a shocker.

    This is all non news.

    The real story is that the US, Marco Rubio and Elon Musk are openly stating that they are planning to meddle in European elections and finance and promote far-right parties even though foreign election interference and financing is illegal in both countries.

    We all know he’s fine with foreign interference so long as it benefits him and members of the GOP that he approves of. Which is why Trump had A.G. Barr write his own little book report lying about the Mueller Report in 2019. There’s nothing else to discuss.

      Trump literally called for foreign election interference live on television when he told Russia to hack Hillary Clinton. https://youtu.be/-b71f2eYdTc

      He asked a foreign government to hack a presidential candidate and release information that would affect the election in his favor. We also know he did more than that but this is something he did out in the open and the fact that it didn’t end his political ambitions is insane to me.

    I mean hes got a point. 2020 was the last election that seemed 100% legitamate and was the start of some really bad elections.
