We're heading into historic majorities, and even in this case we can't agree about the sensationalist and very poor stories about 2026 election rigging were actually just that.
We can agree that Trump attempted to steal the 2020 election through a false electors scheme, but we will never agree that the 100th time repeating that is an excuse to turn off your brain while looking at news reports in 2026. I am sad that so many are, and it makes me a bit dispirited when thinking about what Democrats can do with that majority.
It is entirely predictable that the same crop of "This is how Trump plans to steal the 2028 Election" is going to have zero critical examination. Anybody that points this out is going to be bogged down in, "What do you mean, we know he tried to do it in 2020!" Like that mantra says anything. It overshadows the stability of America's electoral institutions, and its court structure. Which, apparently, a lot of people shit on successes because they're too focused on maintaining their grievance or whatever this is.

respectfully, I think you are focused on an irrelevant and silly thing.
other than Trump's mail-in voting obsession, well maybe voter ID too... nothing really got any traction anyways in the news for 2026' iirc when it comes to him trying to fudge with the process. some lawsuits here and there but as they installed lackeys instead of competent people in the DOJ most went nowhere.
again, for someone who is amongst the most gifted liars and cheaters in Washington people will look extra hard. especially when he revels in calling you the enemy of the people, or sick or whatever, for reporting and asking questions. how is this so hard to grasp?
hell, the election result is proof people at large finally caught up.
what Democrats might do with that majority is for them to decide and it will be tough navigating such a broad coalition of interests. the only thing which would be regrettable is if they were as dysfunctional as the last Congress.
time will tell.
