So lemme get this straight: the guy who won the last election is claiming that the elections are rigged? I'm just trying to understand here

    It's how he knows they're rigged. If they weren't he wouldn't have won.

    > Trump did not elaborate on who would be part of the “Election Integrity Army” or how large it would be. It's a dog whistle to the "militia" people.

    You are understanding correctly. Leading up to November 2024 elections, he said on multiple media outlets "We already have all the votes we need. The election has already been decided. It's the last election you'll ever need to vote in. Thats how good we rigged it." Literally said it MULTIPLE times. And now he's talking about it again, openly as being rigged. He's saying the quiet part outloud, and nobody is outraged, because nobody is taking him at face value.

    It's a sound bite that works. Get his public angry enough that they stop thinking rationally about how stupid the statement is and his supporters will cheer while voting rights are taken away.

    If you look at the statistics... yea it was rigged by trump and he wants to make sure the places he was not able to rig get rigged this time too.

    He claimed 2016 was rigged too. He’s been preparing people since the beginning for this.
