Summary
Shortly before polls closed on Election Day, Republican nominee Donald Trump claimed on Truth Social that there was “cheating” in Philadelphia, adding “Law enforcement coming!!!”
The Philadelphia Police Department and District Attorney Larry Krasner responded, stating there was no evidence to support Trump’s allegations.
Krasner invited Trump to provide any factual basis for his claims but noted no such information had been provided.
Meanwhile, shares of Truth Social’s parent company saw volatile trading, leading to three halts in trading on Tuesday.
The system is rigged. Rent keeps going up, wages stay the same. The world is going to shit, and people are feeling increasingly desperate.
Along comes a smooth talking con man who tells them all the problems they’re facing, it’s the immigrants’ fault, it’s trans people’s fault, it’s the woke left’s fault, it’s whatever target he paints next. He knows they’re scared and angry and he leverages that fear to tell them that only he has all the answers.
And they’re desperate enough to believe him.
1930’s Germany all over.
Except the US didn’t lose a war, and it’s its own oligarchy that’s bleeding out the country, not foreign powers.
Although foreign powers are definitely sticking some blades of their own.
He has the best words.
