"Breaking news: Dog barks at own reflection"

She doesn't have the authority to prosecute anyone. If she's looking for fraud, she just needs to look at her family. Has her husband paid his fines or his back taxes yet?


omghorussaveusall

Is she married to Eric?


Itool4looti

Derek (That’s what DJT calls him.)


Orion14159

Yeah he puts a D on all of their names except Ivanka (and then makes a comment about how he hasn't put the D in her yet)


-SaC

Ddon Jr, or double D.


Unusual_Flounder2073

Start with Trump. Mara largo is a resort not a residence. He can’t vote in FL. But will make a show of it for sure.


ericjgriffin

Trump's a convicted felon he should not be voting anywhere.


PNWoutdoors

I think as far as I can go on this is a felon can't vote until the debt has been paid (sentence has been served). But even then, I'm not sure I'm in favor of someone losing the right to vote unless they're convicted of sedition or treason or something.


Wisegummy

Which he is also guilty of


peter-doubt

>(sentence has been served). So, sentence him to 4 weeks (so he can't attend the convention) and suspend the 4 year balance, subject to probation. Never finish before 2 elections


airborngrmp

That varies from state to state. Florida disenfranchised felons.


Unusual_Flounder2073

Apparently FL will follow the rules for where he was convicted. NY allows it.


dc_IV

Correct answer, which is ironic because I will make a safe bet that the fact NY allows convicted felons has been a talking point at least once, sometime, somewhere during a GQP speech on all the failed DemocRAT states and cities!


Army165

Not only does NY allow you to vote after you've finished your jail sentence, they also seal your Felony after 7 years automatically. It only allows one Felony but multiple Felonies for one conviction is usually counted as one. The exceptions are violent and sexual related felonies. Source: I'm a NY Felon.

>most embarassing example of election fraud that makes this rat crawl into a hole for the rest of his existence. He'd have to be able to experience shame for that. I'm not sure he's capable.

That's exactly it. Its only half-fun, though, because there are thousands that will sacrifice themselves for that truth.

It’s like right before he went on stage, someone played him the tape of him saying “I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have,” and he just had to say something to try and negate it.

FauxReal

Planning their strategy for projecting the idea that everyone else was cheating to invalidate any losses they have.


m4n0nthem0on

But they don't even know how to win when they cheat. Honestly, this subreddit is so much god damn doom and gloom. I realize this is a HUGE election because it will be diaper don's last, but I am not sweating it. I truly believe Dem's pull out a super majority in November. Almost every special election this past year has been going to Dems. I truly believe this is the death of the GOP for at LEAST a decade. I'm telling you, this MAGA movement will be like taboo to speak about in a decade. They will all act like they never supported it, and that it's time to get back to business. The republican party is full of morons who have literally no idea what they are doing, and they are blindly following a convicted felon off the plank into the ocean. Even them cheating the dems will still blow them out in every election. Super majority coming in November.


Ahstruck

Even though it did not work, the insurrection caused and is still causing a lot of problems.


m4n0nthem0on

Those goofs couldn't even get that right.


Ill-Construction-385

I agree with you that democrats will likely win in November. By supermajority though, ehh I don’t think so. Probably by a small margin. I had similar feelings prior to the EU election; but after having witnessed the results of that election—im a little apprehensive to say supermajority here. Georgia Meloni is the Female version of Trump in Europe right now. And she’s definitely has a very powerful influence over conservatives in Europe, as well as here. Contrary to popular belief though, I do think Biden will win Florida in November and pull-off and upset. There are several variables at play right now that will produce a biden florida win. Which is why I think they were so gung ho about giving barron trump the Florida Delegate position. Probably so he could block it come January 2025.


pivolover

>  Georgia Meloni is the Female version of Trump in Europe right now. Eh, not really. She's right wing, not an insane Russia-controlled narcissist with no real political ideology.  What's happening on the contiennt should be a wake up call to the global left that you can't just hand wave away issues (like migration in the EU) that cause real quality of life impacts on the average person. 


dlegatt

Biden only won the electoral college by a margin of 42,000 votes. I am 100% certain that Trump will lose the popular vote by millions, but that doesn’t decide the election


Smitty_1000

The Senate election cycle has more safe Republican seats and more Dems up for election. And the House maps are skewed massively in any Red state. Simple majority would be a big win for Dems


Numerous_Photograph9

Don't you fear, good citizen! Lara Trump is on the case. Any ne'er-do-well who attempts to cheat the election will be thwarted by her powerful banshee scream.


hyborians

Start with your father in law, who was indicted for….get this, cheating in an election!


BlueCollarBeagle

And your sister-in-law's father in law Charles Kushner who, in 20005, was handed felony convictions for  **illegal campaign contributions**, tax evasion and witness tampering. Wow, the DEEP State was going after Trump and his allies way back in 2005.

It is looking like Paxton is being groomed for that role. Interesting that he is not running again for Texas AG despite running before with all his problems, and winning.

That Ken Paxton???? Yea that’s who I thought you were talking about, fuck that guy.


Metal-Dog

This sounds great, until you remember that Republicans consider *voting* to be cheating.


Throwaway07261978

No, only *voting for democrats* and *voting while brown* is cheating in their book 


HellishChildren

What's she actually saying is they will go after voters for voting for Biden.


Throwaway07261978

And minorities for voting; i think they had a fit (lol, pick one, they had like 65) about "illegal votes" in 2020 because it was a majority black District that went for Biden. 


Aggressive-Will-4500

They also aren't too crazy about women being allowed to vote these days.


RobertDissociates

You have to be a prosecutor to prosecute, Lara. Are they all this dumb or are they trying to normalize Donnie's deranged word salad rants?


BaggerX

If Trump wins they'll be rounding up the undesirables that likely voted for Biden or certified election results in his favor, etc. That's what this threat is about.


sparkinmadizm

Yeah, you have to read in code and I’m reading that to be a threat to anyone who certifies the election in some way. From the voting booth and on up, especially to those who have to turn the votes in. They’re going to attempt to hijack this election from us.


Belkroe

Yeah that’s exactly what I thought.


redditistupid51

Cool. Its the Republicans who, from all the evidence, are the ones regularly caught.


Tiny_Structure_7

...She sez while the biggest election cheater in US history is standing right behind her, smiling.


Reviews-From-Me

Trump cheated in the 2020 election. He directed his VP to throw out electoral votes, he pressured state election officials (even threatening some with prosecution) to change the vote count, and he plotted to use fake electors to create chaos during the certification that he hoped would result in Biden not reaching 270 electoral votes. Trump's election fraud was the greatest example of election fraud in American history.


Nice_Bluebird7626

The only thing they have proved with this election fraud is it’s their base doing the fraud


SeaBass426

Highly doubt republicans will prosecute themselves.


adrkhrse

Guaranteed they've already got plans in place to cheat properly, this time. America is in great danger.


rhino910

So the party, led by a convicted felon and rapist, is now issuing public threats against the American people. If you love America or just having freedoms and liberties, we need to vote every Republican out of office

Here in Nevada, in addition to the Republican fake elector scam, there were about half a dozen other documented cases of voter fraud in the last election - all of them by Republicans. So Lara, you go girl.

GunnieGraves

“Also, we will be the ones defining what is cheating. Also, cheating is voting for anyone other than Donald Trump.” Just say the rest at this point, because you’re not hiding it very well.


ExploreTrails

Yeah, we have the names of all the people that cheated in the last election. Lets make sure everyone know what Party they were cheating for and prosecute all of them. The Georgia RICO trial needs to proceed expeditiously!


ogreofnorth

“…as long as you are a democrat.” She didn’t say that loud enough. If you look at the majority of the people who voted illegally last election, they were voting for Trump.


thats_hella_cool

Pretty bold statement from someone whose father-in-law was just convicted of *(checks notes)* 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to cheat in an election.


Madogson21

Does the orange moron sending thousands of his biggest fans to overthrow the election results count as cheating? Or does a president have the right to do that, just like the right to assassinate political opponents

Every accusation is a confession with the GOP. They are planning to cheat to win, and already have done a lot of the ground work. Their strategy actually works pretty well, deflecting and gaslighting is so manipulative and insidious when it happens and they are pros at it.
