What is Orange Hitler trying to deflect from

with all the claims of illegal voting?

Can someone explain to me, how with so many rethugs trying to prevent folks from voting, that 'illegal' voting is taking place. Explain it to me like I'm Trump's mental age..a 5yr old..

it is best to control and frame the narrative from the very beginning. That way the Democrats will presumably be on the defensive and reacting to the GOP claims of millions of fraudulent votes.

Plus the millions of fraudulent votes meme ties in with the millions of illegals voting meme. One supports the other and combined they make a narrative for Trump supporters to believe.

If however, the corporate press actually does its job, the Trump lies will be exposed. Except of course for those who still believe that the media is liberal and biased.

If it gets to the point they remove him due to insanity do all of his executive orders still stand?

if there were 3 to 5 million illegal votes, then Hillary didn't actually get more legitimate votes. And Trump can keep pretending that's he's way more popular than Hillary, and more people love him, because he's such a swell guy. He's a winner.

by Karl Rove to put this into action. Targets are Democratic Senators up for reelection in swing States that Trump carried. Do you remember the Voter Caging,here they go again.
