The film was debunked years ago but some till use it as proof of a stolen/rigged election. Hate to break it to some of you but the film is in fact flawed and contains misleading information.

"The creator of the widely debunked film "2000 Mules" has issued a statement saying "inaccurate information" was provided to him about ballot box surveillance videos featured in the film and apologizing to a Georgia man in one of those videos who was falsely accused of ballot fraud during the 2020 election.

"Trump had plenty of company. Indeed, it’s hard to overstate just how much this literally unbelievable film fueled far-right conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. It quickly became a Trump favorite, of course, but many other Republicans — including some in the House and Senate — also took the movie quite seriously, pointing to it was powerful evidence of election irregularities.

They were wrong. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported on a written apology from right-wing commentator Dinesh D’Souza, who was responsible for making the documentary.


 
Flawed?
It was nothing but misinformation and lies.

That's why the magas are so in love with it. I hope Dinesh has good protection. Going to be some magas seriously angry at him. Not for the actual lying, but for admitting that he was lying. No one is allowed to pop the misinformation bubble.

I wonder if Dinesh's sudden apology is connected to a defamation lawsuit? There is little doubt that that he would have known all along that he was lying and deliberately misinforming people. Not thinking that this is likely to be a sudden bout of remorse!

Think back to that time:
- Dominion stole the election on every maga news outlet. Over and over and over. Maga cult - "DOMINION STOLE THE ELECTION". "THE ELCTION WAS STOLEN
. "WE NEED TO STOP THE STOLEN ELECTION FROM BEING CERTIFIED"
A short while later we have Fox in court vs Dominion, with the perfect opportunity to show the world the evidence of Dominions wrong doing. What happened - turned out they knew perfectly well it was BS all along, and cost Fox circa $800million.

- 2000 Mules gets released. The maga cult claim it as the ultimate evidence that the election was stolen. Forget Dominion - it was all those Mules that stole it. Maga cult - "IT WAS THE MULES". "IT WAS THE MULES".
A couple of years later, probably due to the threat of Dominion style defamation suits, Mule guy admits the vid was a fraud.

- Rudi G - Tells the world that dishonest election workers cheated. Maga cult - "IT WAS THE CHEATING ELECTION WORKERS THAT STOLE THE ELECTION"
A bit later the election workers sue Rudi for defamation and he admits in court that he had no proof of any kind and it was basically just a convenient story that fit the maga rhetoric. Perfect chance to show all the 'evidence' that he claims he had, but of course there never was any evidence. Just another story to get the maga dogs barking.

Are there any major maga election fraud claims left from 2020 that haven't been shown to be lies and fabrications?
 
To date it seems that there is no credible evidence that the 2020 election was stolen/rigged. I have asked Trump supporters numerous times for the "evidence" that convinced them that the election was rigged. At best they give some opinion not supported by facts.

When I viewed 2000 Mules it was fairly easy to see in was a "what if" type theory. Much like Ancient Aliens.

Kind of amusing that I saw an older thread pop up today about how much the Rube-publicans spent on that in the first 24 hours of release...

Just posted to it.
Interesting that Newsmax, OAN seem to be ignoring the story.

When 2000 Mules came out and I watch some of it online it became clear it was flawed.

at least Fox did
