Trump says the election is going to be rigged....

[Moot]

Trump had a very bad week and his ratings are dropping like a lead balloon....so now he's claiming the election is going to be rigged...before anyone has even voted.

"...Columbus, Ohio (CNN) — Donald Trump on Monday took his complaints about the "rigged" political system one step further.

"I'm afraid the election's going to be rigged. I have to be honest," Trump told voters in Ohio, a crucial swing state....

Trump continued with the "rigged" theme during a Monday night interview on Fox News...

"I'm telling you, November 8, we'd better be careful, because that election is going to be rigged," Trump added. "And I hope the Republicans are watching closely or it's going to be taken away from us."..."

He wouldn't be saying that if he was winning. Sure looks like Trump is playing the victim and already looking for a scapegoat to blame for his failed candiacy.

Obama was right....Trump is unfit for office.

This is what we call a pre-packaged excuse. It's basically been Republican SOP for the last 4 or 5 election cycles.

And it's quite obvious the Democratic Party threw its support behind Hillary. However, that's not rigging an election.

Even if you disagree with that assessment, there are certain mechanisms available to "rig" a party primary that simply aren't available in a general election. I'll leave it to you to figure out what those are.

this election has already been proven to be RIGGED

first was how cruz with his big oil money bought off the delegates to stop the will of the voters,, This crooked RULE was already in place so that the status quo the current rich could stop the voters by buying off the delegates .. and same crooked rule with the democrats

next was the email leaks showing the DNC was crooked trying to elect hillary

next is how the media gets their money from liberalism and how they donate to liberals

first time in history that the number 1 thing in america the election of its govt proven to be CROOKED !!

Media is the most powerful tool that can manipulate - and rig - an election. We see how leftist mainstream media dominate the airwaves, yes they do manipulate.

A biased media can rig the election.


Rigged (Urban Dictionary)
1. The word rigged is used to describe situations where unfair advantages are given to one side of a conflict.

Bias alert: 94% of news reports blame Trump — not protesters — for campaign violence


Their bias is showing: All three major broadcast networks immediately homed in on the violence during Republican front-runner Donald Trump’s campaign rallies last weekend, to the exclusion of almost everything else.

An analysis by the Media Research Center detects agenda: “ABC, CBS and NBC news coverage found that the left-wing protesters who forced the cancellation of a presidential campaign event escaped nearly all blame, as reporters dumped 94 percent of the blame on Trump and his campaign,” the conservative watchdog group reports.

Analysts Mike Ciandella, Scott Whitlock and Kyle Drennen pored over morning and evening coverage on the three networks from Saturday morning through Monday morning — 45 segments, and almost 85 minutes of airtime. Here is what they found: Reporters criticized Mr. Trump’s campaign over the incidents 46 times. They blamed the protesters only three times, the study found.

“By 15-to-1 margin, the networks blame Trump, not lefties, for campaign violence,” research director Rich Noyes writes in his analysis of their work.

“While a presidential candidate — especially a front-runner — should obviously be held to the highest level of scrutiny, the media’s race to blame Trump skirted the role of the left-wing activists whose goal on Friday was not just to demonstrate their opposition to Trump, but to actually force the cancellation of his campaign event,” Mr. Noyes said.

Leftist protesters that intimidate people from attending speech rallies, or causing speech rallies to be cancelled, is also another element to a rigged system.
How many Trump rallies were cancelled? How many people who want to listen to Trump's campaign were prevented from attending?

As long as Trump loses in November I really do not care what he blames it on.

Just getting his excuses in order for his big embarrassing loss in November.

To hell with Trump.

His boosters in the media are doing the same thing, either claiming it's all gonna be rigged or blaming "gosh darn GOP elites and never trumpers" for his loss.

Sure is a lot of blaming going on in August for an event that doesn't happen until November. I thought we were gonna win so much we would be sick of winning?

Oh geeezzzz, must we hear more Trumper crying and desperate 'irrationalization' as a form of denial? I wouldn't bother to call this 'rigged election' excuse a rationalization because that term at least implies a defense mechanism wherein making excuses sounds rational...rather than the loon bird talk about 'rigged' elections. Get a clue people:

"Definition of election rigging election rigging is the act of dishonestly organizing an election to get a particular result. it is an electoral fraud and an interference with the election process." (Collins Dict)

None of the three claims made meet this definition, even if they were shown to have a basis of truth (which the majority have not). This is yet another example of Trumpers tossing around simple-minded terms that they don't even understand.

Sad.

First of all, there is plenty of rigging going on. And the feds are worried about outside actors creating trouble by by hacking electronic voting machines. If the polls show -20 and Trump wins, you liberals won't be so circumspect. As it is now, expect the polls to heighten and fraud to be the order of the day, and your alligator tears will be appropriate in size to what happens to your candidates.

We need a new voting system. Cheat proof.

More proof, if any was needed, that Trump is a liberal. Blaming others for your own personal failures is a liberal calling card.

That's all a Nazi Democrat like you can get out of a paragraph you feel I gave no right to post. You and your fellow travelers attitude toward others is a national problem. Why don't you go back to shooting cops, and keep your jackboots out of my post.

Yeah Nazis! I can't believe all these Stormfront-ers coming in here talking smack about Trump! Their criticism certainly means they feel you had no right to post something in the first place. And you telling them to stay out of your posts totally doesn't mean that you think they have no right to respond. Totally.

 

[Enlighten Me]

Sigh!

I just want to point out that Donald is on record. He has no faith in the integrity of the FBI. The Justice Department, Congressional Hearing Reports, the First Amendment, and now our electoral process. He choses to refute information that has been repeatedly been verified and vetted and offers conspiracy theory without offering ANY information to support it.

If he has no faith in the institutions set up by our Founding Fathers to provide checks and balances and prevent the abuse of power, how can he call himself an American much less a candidate for President. He does not believe in America.

He says he is an "outsider'. That is way too far OUTSIDE American values and the institutions that structure our government.

Regarding voter fraud,

https://www.reference.com/governmen...united-states-7c8cb6a25feb1617?qo=cdpArticles
In part:

The Republican Party regularly examines voter ID laws in state elections, claiming that voter fraud is having a harmful influence on elections throughout the government. Such campaigns as the one that Lyndon B. Johnson ran in Texas when vying for the U.S. Senate in 1948, which has a reputation for voter fraud, have entered the public consciousness as evidence that election fraud is a common occurrence, states the New York Times.

It is my opinion that the GOP historically and currently wish to suppress minority voting as they disproportionately vote Democratic in elections. It is about staying in POWER and not necessarily motivated by raw Racism. Nothing 'personal', just politics.(sarcasm) However, the GOP has also garnered the vote of Racists and most recently endorsements from White Supremist groups as they have the perception that the GOP supports their racist views and dogma.. Deporting a variety of minority immigrants is one of the White Supremists self stated goals. Similarly, Minority groups also have the perception that the GOP is the party of racial discrimination. The recent court rulings that say the Voter ID laws passed in Texas and ?South Carolina? were discriminatory in nature and invalidated. Court rulings against GOP sponsored discrimatory laws certainly validate the perception that the GOP is the party of racism and discrimination.

Continuing from the article:

In addition to the 2005 comparison of voter fraud prosecutions, a study commissioned by the Bush Administration concluded in 2007 and found that, after a 5-year analysis, they could not find any proof of an organized campaign to distort the results of federal elections, states the New York Times.

Summary, it has no effect on the outcomes of elections.

Other than voter fraud, how else could it be "rigged"?

Painfully misinformed, i.e. wrong.

First, there is no dispute some voter fraud exists. When a congressional candidate in Mississippi is sentenced to five years in prison for knowingly registering one or more convicted felons...when police in Pontiac, Mich., find the mummified body of Pia Farrenkopf in the garage of her foreclosed home (dead since 2008) but having been listed as having voted in the 2010 election for governor...well yes, there is fraud.

In fact, folks have been prosecuted for systematic voter fraud operations - some being celebrated as a role model for minority Democrats. Former Cincinnati election official Melowese Richardson was convicted of voting six times for Barack Obama in 2012, and after she was released from prison she was called up on the stage a rally for Al Sharpton’s National Action Network for a ““welcome home.”. She was hugged by the Reverend Al Sharpton.

And then there was Democratic state representative Mike Marshall of Indiana. Marshall was indicted on several counts of voter fraud then given a standing ovation by the Democratic convention in 2012 for the "unfairness" of his being charged. Four months later Marshall pleaded guilty for running an absentee-ballot racket and sentenced to 18 months.

| National Review

Second, the question is does voter fraud affect elections? Of course it does.

After all, even a small number of votes can have sweeping consequences. Al Franken’s 312-vote victory in 2008 over Minnesota senator Norm Coleman gave Democrats a filibuster-proof Senate majority of 60 votes, which allowed them to pass Obamacare. Months after the Obamacare vote, a conservative group called Minnesota Majority finished comparing criminal records with voting rolls and identified 1,099 felons — all ineligible to vote — who had voted in the Franken–Coleman race. Fox News random interviews with ten of those felons found that nine had voted for Franken, backing up national academic studies that show felons tend to vote strongly for Democrats.

Third, more than one academic study demonstrate voter fraud and "irregularities" can (and has) affected US elections.

Ultimately, the results of our analysis provide a basis for informed reflection concerning
the role of non-citizens in U.S. elections. They demonstrate that in spite of de-jure barriers to
participation, a small portion of non-citizen immigrants do participate in U.S. elections, and that
this participation is at times substantial enough to change important election outcomes including
Electoral College votes and Senate races.

[SailaWay]

the number 1 thing in america is the election of its govt....

and now we know it is RIGGED.. now we know.... there is nothing as important to understand as this issue...

both the republicans and democrats set up a system to stop the voters if the rich wanted to by simply buying off delegates

next we see with the emails coming assangse.... that the DNC itself had the nomination rigged for hillary

and now find out the media pays over 90% of its political donations to democrats and we also know it is liberalism where the media gets their money.. so this makes a totally bias media trying to stop any change

Trump may win every single voter that had dropped out of voting seeing it was rigged and since pollsters do not bring those into polling then trump may win easily
