MAGA’s Latest Stolen 2020 Election Theory
WSJ Opinion ^ | December 28, 2025 | The Editorial Board

Posted on 12/30/2025 8:41:06 AM PST by The_Media_never_lie

The 2026 midterms are coming, and Republicans have work to do if they want to hold Congress. Yet the nation’s MAGA minds are still looking back at 2020 and stretching to justify President Trump’s delusion of a stolen election. The latest involves the embarrassing news that Fulton County, Ga., failed to have its poll workers sign many of the tabulator tapes for early voting. “I have not seen the tapes myself, but we do not dispute that the tapes were not signed,” an attorney for Fulton County told the Georgia State Election Board during a December hearing. “It was a violation of the rule. Since 2020, again, we have new leadership, and a new building, and a new board, and new standard operating procedures, and since then the training has been enhanced.” The admission rocketed around the MAGA-sphere as a claim that Georgia’s results in 2020 included 315,000 illegally counted votes. Mr. Trump lost the state by 11,779 overall, and Fulton County, which includes much of Atlanta, is a Democratic stronghold, where Joe Biden carried 73%. The refrain on the right is that the unsigned tapes somehow prove Mr. Trump has been correct about the election all along.

Q for the WSJ: Why do states that don’t use RCV, use RCV-enabled electronic voting machines?

Inquiring minds want to know.

The once reliable WSJ has unfortunately become part of the leftwing media blob. I give no credence whatsoever to their “news” or their opinions.

“. . . to justify President Trump’s delusion of a stolen election.”

How could anyone possibly doubt that Potatohead Biden got 81 million votes campaigning from his basement while calling a “lid” by early afternoons more often than not?

Dear WSJ we’re 315,000 votes illegally counted?!?

The simple answer is yes.

315,000 vote had zero chain of custody proof, and were illegally counted.

The media and the democrats claimed the 2020 election was the most safe and secure election ever.

This has now been proven to be, like nearly everything the left claims, abject bullcrap.

Let’s not even get into that court cases in WI that found illegal behaviors out of Democrat counties where they illegally cured ballots that you ignored. While Republican counties followed the law and invalidated them.

The fact the WSJ offers anything but outrage at this illegality is insane, yet they not only refuse to be outraged about it they want those who are to be the ones who should be shamed.

The truth is the law was not followed so the votes are illegal, end of story. Suggest they subtract 73% of the 315,000 from Biden’s count and then figure out who really won.

According to Fulton County's Election Day results, Biden received a total of 381,144 votes, or 72% of the county, compared to Trump's 137,240 from a total tally of 524,659 votes cast. The remaining 6,275 votes from Fulton County were cast for Libertarian candidate Jo Jorgensen. Biden initially won the state by 11,779 votes, a lead that increased following a recount (we come back to this later). https://ca.news.yahoo.com/fact-check-fulton-county-georgia-120000325.html

Well, 381,144 - 137,240 =243,904 = 243,904
315,000 X .73 =229,950
381,144 - 229,950 = 151,194 legal votes for Biden

looks a lot closer and there maybe other illegal activity…. 🤔. Plus what happens to the State totals when you take 229,950 from Biden’s votes at the State level? Looks like Trump won Georgia….

this ridiculous unsigned op-ed.

We'll just have to assume that EVERYONE who works at the WSJ is a lying POS, unless proven otherwise.

The WSJ is lying. It was fraud.

That being said, it should not be the focus on next years elections. Just wont matter to voters. It should still be taken to the justice system and hold people accountable.

"Mr. Trump has been correct about the election all along."

The rest of the article can be dismissed however.

I forgot the adjective “legitimate” before “votes” - but yeah, you’re probably right.

More evidence the WSJ and Wall Street Republicans are the enemies of the MAGA movement.

Only an imbecile would believe Trump won 18 of 19 bellwether counties that had voted with the winner since 1980 and lost in 2020.

The destruction of election integrity laws in Fulton County, Georgia is proof of the how Georgia was rigged for Biden.
