Trump’s ‘rigged’ claims of collusion are laughable
Donald Trump’s preposterous claim that the coming election is going to be rigged implies that the Republican governors and secretaries of state who now control 30 U.S. states are in collusion with each other, the media, and the Democratic Party to elect Hillary Clinton. This absurd claim would be laughable if it were not for the fact that his words amount to sedition.
The actual voter suppression is being committed now with spreadsheets instead of white sheets in many of those same 30 states, and this fact can be found if you search Interstate Crosscheck or The Best Democracy Money Can Buy.
If only our resident historian Victor David Hanson would provide the citizens of Fresno with the proud history of Republican election theft, voter suppression and sedition beginning with the questionable election of 2000.
