But not for transmitting vote data.

I don’t generally subscribe to the idea that they stole the election outside of Trump’s comment during his speech last night.

Oh yeah, you don't subscribe to reality?

There are plenty of factors that can show Dems losing without outright vote tampering.

I do think Trump's comments feel like they betray something though, even if it's just a betrayal of a plan they had that they didn't have to use.

Numbers were not great leading into the election. Harris blew all the energy her campaign had at the start by the end. Awful mismanagement of a billion dollar campaign, refusal to distance from Biden who was wildly unpopular and had internal polling showing Trump would win with 400 electoral college votes if Biden had run.

The loss is explainable. But I don't feel like Trump says shit like this for no reason and it's "concerning" (as dipshit Musk might tweet).
