Donald Trump, a ‘Rigged’ Election and the Politics of Race (the leftist agenda continues)
New York Times ^ | AUG. 21, 2016 | By MAGGIE HABERMAN and MATT FLEGENHEIMER

As he seeks to revive his embattled candidacy, Donald J. Trump has seized on a new argument to rally his supporters and to explain away a possible defeat in November: that Democrats are preparing to exploit weak voter identification laws to win a “stolen election” through fraudulent voting.

Since 2010, Republican governors and Republican-held state legislatures have fought for stricter voter identification laws, which Democrats argue are intended to hinder turnout by the poorest voters — many of them black and Hispanic — who tend to vote Democratic.

This so called “election” in November needs to be heavily scrutinized and gone over with a fine tooth comb. EVERY “vote” needs to be looked at closely. All illegals who dare to vote in OUR election should be permanently DEPORTED. Snowflakes who engage in multiple voting need to be arrested, tried and thrown in prison. Our vote is supposed to mean something. Right now, it doesn’t mean jack sh*t.

The truth burns rats like sunlight to a vampire. If voter fraud were not real, President Romney would be running again.
