NOTHING was done to “stop and steal”. The mail in ballots, harvesting,fraud machines,vote “counters” and all other shenanigans has only been refined. The “legal” system is fully controlled by FJB and Soros Inc runs the cities.

Trump lied. I doubt he believes it was stolen. It ain’t theft if it’s legal. Mail-in ballots and early voting helped increase Democrat turnout. That’s all there is to it. And Zuckerberg supercharged those changes with $300m in Democrat GOTV funding.

Re election theft - every single time a Trump official has testified under oath, the testimony has been that they were unable to prove fraud. Hundreds of thousands were spent. The result was nada.

Dinesh made a movie based on at least one allegation that has boomeranged on him:


https://archive.ph/3Y5BO
[The movie “2000 Mules” was supposed to be the definitive proof that Democrats stole the 2020 election from President Trump. Last week it was quietly retracted. Salem Media Group, which co-produced this Trumpian fantasy mockumentary, ceased distribution of the film and issued an apology to Mark Andrews, one of the Georgia voters depicted as an illegal ballot “mule.”

Mr. Andrews is suing for defamation, and Salem aims to shift blame to the film’s purported vote-fraud-fighting heroes. “We relied on representations made to us by Dinesh D’Souza and True the Vote, Inc. (‘TTV’) that the individuals depicted in the videos provided to us by TTV, including Mr. Andrews, illegally deposited ballots,” the company said. “We have learned that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has cleared Mr. Andrews of illegal voting activity in connection with the event depicted.”

Better late than never, as the unpunctual say, though what a lame excuse. The movie included surveillance tape of Mr. Andrews putting ballots into an official drop box. “What you are seeing is a crime,” the host, Mr. D’Souza, says grimly. “These are fraudulent votes.” But the film offered no actual evidence of wrongdoing by Mr. Andrews, who has said for years that he was legally returning his family’s votes.

State investigators cleared him at a public meeting in May 2022, which was reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. That was three days before “2000 Mules” hit movie theaters. Mr. Andrews’s legal complaints, filed later that year, say the defendants subsequently published a “2000 Mules” companion book, even after his attorney sent letters to them “putting them on notice of the falsity of their statements.”]


The idea that Democrats roll out the fraud machine only for Trump seems tenuous. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. If it worked, they would have swept Congress, taken every seat.

Trump’s lies appeal to people who have little exposure to election mechanics. The finagle was in the rule changes, not ballot dumps. Democrats tend to have more lazy and stupid voters than actually vote. Make it easier for them to vote and more of them will.

GOP ballot harvesting can work because Republicans have a lot of voters who are either too busy being productive to vote, or too old and infirm to vote in person. Zuckerberg’s cash isn’t reaching out to these constituencies.

[Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson has said his city will use a private grant to conduct door-to-door canvassing by the city’s election officials to urge people to vote.

To many people, it would seem that nothing could be as innocuous as a simple “nonpartisan” get-out-the-vote (GOTV) effort, even if it is financed by private grants to election officials. It might sound fair enough, if the mayor’s election staff takes no partisan position, and advocates for no particular candidates in their efforts, and given that election officials are required by law to operate in a nonpartisan fashion.

But as The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway tweeted at the time, “Zuckerberg-style targeted private financing — and collusion with supposedly non-partisan election administration — of GOTV operations in Democrat regions is a horrific attack on election integrity.”

Even if we could take Milwaukee Mayor Johnson at his word when he says,“I’m not asking anybody to cast their ballots for 1 party or another or 1 candidate or another. What I’m asking is for people to participate in our process,” what he is suggesting is inherently partisan, at least in Milwaukee, and in most other U.S. urban areas.

Content neutrality of GOTV efforts ultimately has little to do with their partisan effects. The partisan advantage depends far more on the political characteristics of the targeted area.

In a city like Milwaukee, which Joe Biden won in 2020 with 80 percent of the vote to Donald Trump’s 20 percent, a randomly targeted GOTV effort can be expected to increase the Democratic candidate’s vote total by an extra 600 votes for every 1,000 additional voters mobilized. This is because the Democratic candidate would be expected to get an additional 800 votes, while the Republican candidate would be expected to get an additional 200 votes, resulting in a net gain for the Democrat of 600 votes.]


The long-term government remedy, to deter future such Zuckbuck schemes, might be a RICO prosecution of Zuckerberg on whatever charges Trump’s new DOJ can dream up, but it’s a really long shot. Zuckerberg probably had his lawyers look through Federal election law in great detail before handing over his money.
