This really is better than Lee Atwater’s sabotage of Jimmy’s balloon drop. They did this to themselves.

My bet? They had a program they used 4 years ago. They forgot they buried a line of code that gave Hillary every tenth vote. So when they needed a new program they just used the old one and changed the names. They didn’t realize it until they started getting results and there was a column for Hillary with ten percent of the vote.

Just the name of the app, Shadow, who the heck thought this would be a good name to attach to elections? Rats are insane.

It is very possible that the Iowa Caucus may have given the 2020 win to Trump.
Just like the video of Hillary being carried to the SUV sealed her fate.
Both showed America they are being lied to by the Media, Hollywood and DC.

Sounds quite plausible They still haven’t released all the data yet as far as I know. Why not unless they are hiding something.

It would be funny as hell if it were true and leaked out.

I think he already had it. It's the House I hope it gives us.

They will get more and more desperate as the weeks go by.

Biden is toast.

All the others are so far left they cannot win even in blue states.

The Party Elites know this and they are panicking.

The big money donors are walking away.

The AOC faction is going to be the dominant voice for the near future.......................

What gets me is that you could have hired three 16-year-old kids to write the App-code, $2k each, and in 90 days....you would have had a simple program that worked. You haul in 90 12-year old kids to do a test-run for a whole day....each making up numbers and inputting the data into the App, and then have some audit team just verify the results. This is simply not rocket-science.

I’m not buying into any part of this story. I don’t think it was ever tested. I don’t think it was even written as an App within the US or by American coders.

The harsh reality here is that they gave Trump at least two major ad’s for the fall election, and it makes this episode look like chimps were hired to write the code, and chimps hired to produce the data. Chimp - in, Chimp - out.

WORDS THEY LIVE BY: "CYA is our specialty."

==================================

If you look at Acronym's "About" page today it says: "we invested in Shadow"

.....but the Wayback Machine from last month says: "we launched Shadow"

IMHO, it has much to do, AGAIN, with scamming someone (in their own party) for millions. You know, like the billions spent on a flawed server back when Hitlery was running. I say, follow the money!

Really. Two organizations with bunches of peoples...

It seems like one, maybe two people could’ve put this app together. It’s not like they were building the Taj Mahal.

Acronym's bold-faced plan was to spend big to take down Donald Trump......it perfectly encapsulates
how in 2020 this money-soaked Democratic political culture inevitably leads to one place: failure.

Launched ahead of the 2018 midterms, Acronym was described initially as a “digital-first startup” (in the
words of Axios), co-founded by McGowan and Michael Dubin, the founder of the men’s grooming company Dollar Shave Club.

Dubin.
