[quote]US Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has said the election is "absolutely rigged" by the "dishonest media" and "at many polling places".
His comments appear to contradict his running mate Mike Pence, who told NBC earlier Mr Trump would "absolutely" accept the election result, despite media "bias".
Mr Trump's adviser Rudy Giuliani has also accused Democrats of "cheating".[/quote]
Some of his surrogates had been 'clarifying' his comments to say that 'rigging' only referred to the media. But nope, he really thinks the actual election itself will be rigged
He knows he's going to lose lol
With all the corruption going on around Clinton this wasn't unexpected at all.
"lol that could never happen!!" say the Bernie Sanders supporters.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...
This whole election is just a mess. I'd rather not have either of these candidates, but it's really just playing Russian roulette at this point.
Rigging a General election which is conducted on a state/county basis without the whole thing falling apart is insanely dumb to even consider. You'd need tens of thousands of people at all levels coordinating it.

russian roulette with a shotgun more like it
He's literally trying his hardest to invite some kind of violence on election day by this point. I'm fucking sure of it. And when called out on it he'll have that dumb fucking smug look of "if wasn't me" on his face whilst he prattles on about "corrupt hillary", and his supporters will just eat that shit up, and somehow blame it all on anybody but their orange overlord.
Throw this dumb cunt in prison.

but it never happened. the dws emails didnt really cost bernie the election, he lost by not getting a majority of the popular vote, the supers were a bit of a sham but they would not have voted against the popular vote. a result of the dws emails also is that there will be like only half the supers in the next election which is potentially a huge change

They don't consider it. They have no fucking idea what rigging a general election would even entail. They're just desperately clawing for any excuse to explain why their daddy is going to lose.
apparently the manufacturers of a few voting machines donate to the clinton foundation but the only source for that are alt news sites
tbh electronic voting is really sketchy and we should go back to paper ballots since they are harder to fake

Why would anyone rig an election that Trump seems intent on to lose? The amount of oversight and the scale you would have to do to rig it to make it effective would make it impossible.
I am actually terrified what this man is trying to do to this country
[QUOTE=smurfy;51212653]he really thinks the actual election itself will be rigged[/QUOTE]
No, I doubt he believes it himself. He's saying it to appeal to his fanatical cult fanbase, just like all the other shit he spouts out. He knows how to pull the strings of his voterbase.

Isn't it obvious? Every independent pollster in the world is part of a giant conspiracy to hide the fact that shillary is losing. The second part of the global conspiracy is a mass voter fraud scheme involving thousands of agents working in perfect secrecy all around the country.

Aight so you're saying Clinton has control over both the DNC, and the general election process
do you know how insane that sounds?
Can't you see? The grandma who couldn't keep her own fucking emails secure, who's technical adviser asked for advice on fucking reddit, is secretly pulling the strings of the entire country and everyone in it and is doing it so subtly that there is no evidence to suggest she's done it.
She is the least competent genius mastermind puppeteer in human history.

I googled this and first result was a Democratic Underground post from 2004 claiming those companies are all "part of the Bush crime family" lol

I bet those people who claim that the general election is rigged can't even explain how the voting process work.

do you actually believe your horseshit

Huh? Trump is manipulative, he knows exactly how to appeal to his voters, the alt-right and other assorted hicks. He's not dumb enough to actually believe most of the shit he says, he only says them to rile up his voters. What he says is dumb, he doesn't say it because he's dumb.

I think most of what Trump does is reflexive. He has a sense for what certain people like and he follows it.
I think it's less that he doesn't believe what he says and it's more that he doesn't really have any concrete beliefs to begin with. He just likes to rile people up, and he follows wherever that goes.
If he was actually a genius manipulator he wouldn't spend all his time trying to endear himself to 2/5ths of the population. He'd actually be doing things that would help him get elected.
It's not impossible that he actually believes what he says you know

So wait, you actually think the election is rigged?
Have you become so fanatical for Trump you believe that the American elections will be rigged?
Get real, man. You're a disgrace.

He also says a lot of dumb shit because he's dumb (and disgusting) though, like with the Billy Bush recording and his "locker room banter" excuse. With an ego like his, I wouldn't be surprised if he buys into his own lies because he just doesn't believe that he can lose fairly.

God forbid someone suspect that an ex-presidential family might have a [I]little[/I] bit of power when it comes to pulling strings.
I'm not saying "lol there's secretly a huge illuminati cabal working to ensure she wins", I'm saying I wouldn't be surprised to hear her taking less than ethical (or legal) measures to ensure a victory in swing-states. The Clintons certainly have the power and the resources to do it.
