Trump, Without Evidence, Makes Vote Fraud Claims
VOA News ^ | 11/06/20 | Steve Herman

Republican rebukes

Trump’s unsubstantiated claims that Biden and “the corrupt voting apparatus of states” with Democratic governors are engineering massive fraud brought quick rebuke and criticism from both critics and supporters.

Rick Santorum, a conservative political commentator, said on CNN he was “very distressed” by Trump’s comments. He called Trump's false claims about election cheating "dangerous" and said that "counting absentee ballots is not fraud.”

Sen. Mitt Romney, a former Republican presidential nominee, who has been a Trump critic, also reacted to Trump denouncing the vote-counting process.

“Counting every vote is at the heart of democracy,” Romney said in a tweet Thursday. “If there are irregularities alleged, they will be investigated and ultimately resolved in the courts. Have faith in democracy, in our Constitution and in the American people.”

Yes.. if someone is really angry and wants to take the first step toward serious change, the media is the place to start. A few severe actions against them, might just make them try to be more centered. Right now, they have no fear. Change that equation, and everything else will change downstream. That includes not just news media, but entertainment and sports too.

Verifiable paper trail voting systems were put in place for this election. Its easy to audit any ballet electronically. All data is tied together with timestamps. Someone prints a ballet not within an authorized sysyem and counts it....it will show up easily in an audit report. We are going to win this if there is cheating.

“ If we’re holding the Senate, picking up in the House, it would follow that President Trump should be ahead. The Norm is a straight ticket.”

Yes, that does make sense. There is a guy on Twitter “US Rebel” (@USRebellion1776) that has been looking at the numbers. He found that in swing states, votes for Biden far exceed votes for that state’s Dem Senate candidates, while votes for Trump and GOP Senate candidates are much closer and follow the normal pattern.

At one point, in Michigan, the count showed Biden getting about 70,000 more votes than Dem Gary Peters, but Trump was only getting 7,000 more votes than John James.

What’s so absurd to me are the assertions that President Trump is only alleging fraud because he wants to cling to power. As he said on the trail, he had a pretty nice life before he became President, and at times, he sounded wistful about it. He is fighting for this country.

“Compare that to the “mountain of evidence” that Trump was a Russian asset.”

The Russia Russia Russia hoax that MSM, Youtube, Twitter, Facebook et. al. gleefully and continuously promoted? That?

Isn’t party of the problem in Pennsylvania that they didn’t implement a verifiable ballot tracing system?

We have Pravda and Isvestia in our own country, and now we have sham elections.

I think the Pravda of the Soviet Union was probably more intelligent than our dumbed down media. Besides that, we are living in a Communist country where we have to read foreign papers or samizadt such as Breit bart to learn the news.

“Rick Santorum, a conservative political commentator, said on CNN he was “very distressed” by Trump’s comments. He called Trump’s false claims about election cheating “dangerous” and said that “counting absentee ballots is not fraud.””

But counting invalid absentee ballots IS voter fraud, Rick, you brainiac.

““Counting every vote is at the heart of democracy,” Romney said in a tweet Thursday. “If there are irregularities alleged, they will be investigated and ultimately resolved in the courts. Have faith in democracy, in our Constitution and in the American people.””

That’s the whole point, Mitt, you dope: we are demanding the irregularities be investigated and resolved in the courts, not by corrupt Dim operatives and not by CNN/MSLSD.

Who is Steve Herman?

What’s his background?

Is it unsubstantiated?

Did anyone else hear about the DHS election ‘sting’ operation that has turned up hundreds of thousands of bogus Biden votes?

They lie.

There is ample direct evidence (The Project Veritas tapes) and overwhelming indirect evidence.

In the Intel community there is something known as the "Black Box" analysis method. Say you're trying to figure out what goes on inside of a building you can't see inside of, a proverbial "black box." Trucks pull up to one end of the black box building and offload felled trees. Different trucks pull up to the opposite end of the building and load up with crates of baseball bats before driving away. From which one can deduce that the "black box" is engaged in the manufacture of baseball bats.

Trump sees record-setting crowds -- in the tens of thousands -- showing up for his campaign appearances. His supporters stage impromptu parades on foot, in cars and in boats, each of which has more participants than attendees to any single campaign rally held by his opponent. And he gets 5 million more popular votes than when he first was elected in 2016, to include minority support higher than that enjoyed by any Republican presidential candidate since Nixon in 1960.

So with all those factors entering the voting booth (the black box), if what comes out is a popular vote majority for his opponent, then logic dictates that what is going on inside the voting booth is election fraud.

santorum on cnn anderson this morning in round table discussion insisted that, looking at the numbers reported this morning, he does not see any widespread indicators of vote fraud by the biden camp. he thinks biden connected better with pennsylvania voters than trump. alleghany and philadelphia county results seemed within the expected norm to him.

i should add that the anderson round table discussion seemed overall somewhat disjointed and forced, as if everyone had something else in their minds other than what they were actually saying. santorum seemed to be happy to be used as the point guy for vote fraud denial. i wonder if this will be the msm pattern for the upcoming news cycles— quick, get a retired rino who has no background in forensics or statistical analysis, shove him some cash and tell him that he can say anything as long as it concludes with vote fraud denial.

How is it that these Voice of America traitors are still in charge at VOA?

Obama turned the organization into a pro-Iranian propaganda outfit.

President Trump should have turned it back to its proper purpose of puting out truth across the world.
