That would be because they literally believe the opposite happened. They think Biden is the one who stole the election that Trump should have won.

It's bizarre how common that sentiment is among the MAGA crowd. I've personally heard people say it and I know plenty of others who have had similar experiences with them. It's always some variation of:

"There's no way Biden could have won! Everywhere I looked there were Trump signs and I ain't done seen a single sign for Sleepy Joe nowhere. It don't make sense!"

Well yeah, Jimbo for one thing most people don't make a political candidate their entire personality the way you bunch do. But it's probably also got something to do with the fact that you haven't left the podunk town you were born in since your Senior class trip to the state capital in 1976. Trump has always been massively unpopular. It's why he lost the popular vote twice.

Probably also because a lot of normal Americans are not only voting against little d, but also don't want to be a target of the violent magoos, so don't necessarily broadcast their house as one voting for Biden.

I've noticed these same rocket scientists seem to think that Biden was "campaigning from his basement" and that crowd sizes matter at all when it comes to casting ballots.

Crowd size probably is a good indicator of votes... in their little podunk town. Most people live in cities now

They are so fucking gullible and stupid. Trump lost every court case based on a total failure to present evidence.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
