Like that's not exactly what happened with Democrats in 2020. That sounds an awful lot like fear mongering. I'm sure whatever they want you to do to stop Republicans from doing that will just put Democrats in charge of overlooking the elections so they can pull off something even worse than 2020 if that's even possible.

Here's something to think about. They want you to help stop Republicans from being able to cheat in 2024, which will require oversight by an unbiased party, something they actively avoided at all costs in this election. That in and of itself suggests someone or more than one person in the Democrat party is being devious. Throw in their stance on the brown-skinned Cubans, who have a history with their twisted agenda, and you have even more proof of trickery. Democrats only care about brown-skinned people IF and only if they will vote for them.

About black voter suppression, you can say that all you want as long as you assume all blacks are democrats, in which case, i, a mostly black person with conservative black relatives, would beg to differ. If even most blacks were democrats (which sadly is the case), the claim that Republicans are trying to suppress black votes folds in on itself, because, assuming they're gonna cheat in 2024, my vote as a black person wouldn't be denied, being that i would support them. They're just throwing black people into this so they can guilt trip people. It's an emotional appeal, and not one with much merit; a tactic politicians (even Trump) love these days.

And it's sad he only predicted the insurrection, and they cited his degree in Yale. I haven't graduated from Yale, but not only did I predict far more than that, but everything i predicted came true.
To compare, this is what I predicted would happen as soon as i learned about mail in ballots (from a Democrat, btw, and not fox news)
- the election would be held indefinitely (this happened)
- there would be ballot counting that we couldn't see, and they'd make sure to keep it that way (again, spot on. They boarded up windows to hide counting and only let "certain" ppl in, which isn't legal, btw)
- Funky stuff would happen during the elections. Biden may get 90% of the votes from a conservative city. (They actually somehow exceeded my expectations here. I didn't know that they could even get away with the stuff they pulled off. You can debate about if any of it is legit, but there was some cheating that was extremely obvious, even near people some relatives of mine know).
- because of the mail-in ballots, Biden would break the popular vote record no matter what Trump did. Trump was so popular that they'd have to have drastic results to beat him. (Again, spot on. Biden got 81M votes, 12M more than the 1st black president)
- once they've stolen the election, they'll use Trump's childish immaturity to "prove that he's just being a spoiled sport." (Again, spot on. The media went on & on & on & on about it, to a ridiculous point). And Trump's attitude, no matter how bad it was, didn't automatically make the left innocent.
- something violent would happen, and suddenly Democrats will care about violence. I knew Trump is a fighter. Was i surprised by January 6th? No. Was i surprised that the left suddenly condemned violence despite supporting it for a year? Also, no.
