Do Americans Still Trust Our Elections? It's a matter that ought to concern election authorities -- and yet it doesn't.

Horror writer Stephen King, when not spewing far left argle-bargle (a word I learned long ago from reading one of his novels) on Twitter, may exhibit a bit of common sense.

He once said, “The trust of the innocent is the liar's most useful tool.”

Was he referring to those innocent souls who trusted Christine or Cujo? Or to innocent Americans who foolishly listen to the ruling class liars, believing in truth, justice, and the American way?

Do Americans still trust elections, whether local, state, or national?

In 16 months, America “elects” a president. I would say a new president, but the top two contenders, at least at this early date will be a former and an incumbent president.

We know how recent past elections turned out. Were they an election or a selection? A quote attributed to Joseph Stalin or his henchman, Lavrentiy Beria, sums it up: “Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything.”

Were the votes counted honestly or accurately?

Remember how Fox News called Arizona for Biden with only a few percent of the votes tabulated. And how several swing states immediately thereafter stopped counting votes on election evening with Trump leading, only to resume the next day, Biden now ahead.

All delayed counting gave votes to Biden, not to Trump. What are the odds of that? This Twitter thread by Tom Elliott chronicles multiple episodes of election corruption and interference at the hands of the federal government in collusion with big tech and social media giants.

Aside from ballot-counting irregularities and voting machines connected to the internet, federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies influenced past elections by spying on one candidate and ignoring potential crimes of another candidate, both in 2016 and 2020.

2020 and 2022 were stolen. No one has even been indicted. All the players are still in place. We are a year and 4 months out from the next election and nothing has changed.

Watch as 2024 will fold with a Dimmycrat Victory—Remember Fetterman? Watch as the selected president will take office amid much pomp and ceremony. A few token Rinos will be permitted to give the illusion of an opposition but its all smoke and mirrors. Trump will be put aside any way possible or left with only a 3rd party option. This will further fuel distrust in Government. Nothing will happen until things really go bad. A famine hit France and failures at reforms to spark the French Revolution. A Military defeat or Depression could spark revolt here. With the loss of Trust—real trust—will doom the Powers that be to the Mobs.
People’s Trials—public firing squads—and a total restructure of American will happen.

Right you are. I may not vote this time around depending on who wins the Republican primary precisely because nothing has been done about rampant election fraud.

No, Americans do NOT trust our elections. Which is why the feds are trying to import as many third world thugs as they can - to help with the coming fight.

I will vote in every election because there are state and county races on the ballot. I live in a Texas county that has 0 democrats in office and I would like to keep it that way.
As for the President’s race, it is now a joke.

Gotcha. I may still vote because my congressman is a friend of mine and I want to make sure he is reelected. Daniel Webster and he is an excellent rep.
