In reply to the discussion: The Following Types of Statements Are Not Information, Nor Facts [View all]TheKentuckian
(26,314 posts)54. No one is saying he wouldn't cheat, that is spun out the air.
Not many more, if any are saying he did not cheat.
What people are saying is we have no evidence that he actually did or even how he could have.
I am fairly confident that if the results were different that the burden of proof for those wallowing in aimless conspiracy speculation (no, it doesn't rise to theory) would be far lower.
I also wonder where all the demands for automatically having a forensic investigation and recount of all results were and instead the opposite was actually the prevailing opinion when Chump and the Republicans were demanding hand counts this time.

"Trump made the same claims in 2020" and what happened 4 years later, HE WON. Anger drives turnout. Let them believe it

The writer of at least some of those statements was calling for a recount of paper ballots in the swing states,

Evidence is obtained by investigation, not by presuming all is as it should be.
