    Disclaimer: I am not a Trumper but I also don’t like out of context propaganda. Let him lose on his own merits because he will.

    Where is the rest of the context on this? To me it sounds like he’s saying “we won all 50 states, then we did well in the election”. It sounds to me like he might be talking about winning all 50 states in the primaries. Which he did.

    Now, the idea that he won the election by 12 million votes is obviously a load of shit. Maybe he’s rambling in circles as always and meant to say that he won the primaries by a total of 12 million votes?

      He’s said this before. He literally thinks that he won in every state (even solid blue ones like New York and California), but that the Democrats rigged the election to make him lose.

      Trump did not win all 50 states in the GOP primaries. In 2016. Cruz won Texas and a handful of other Midwestern and non-coastal western states; Kasich won his home state of Ohio, and Marco Rubio won in Minnesota.

      In 2020, in some states, the GOP didn’t even bother holding primaries or caucuses. States like Kansas, Nevada, SC, cancelled public voting in primaries and caucuses after the RNC pledged its undivided support to Trump in back February of that year. So Trump didn’t really “win” primaries in “all 50 states” in 2020 either, because primaries were not held in all 50 states.

      Maybe he meant that or maybe his big lie is getting so big that he’s jumped the shark. Either way, Trump should learn how to share a coherent thought if he’s going to run his fucking mouth 24/7. It’s not our job to figure out how to decode his demented ramblings.

      Every time Trump opens his gob and lets out a brain fart, someone has to come out and say it actually wasn’t a fart at all but instead the seat leather.

      The guy’s a fucking narcissistic moron who wants to convince himself by convincing everyone else that he didn’t lose to Joe fucking Biden in 2020. Which he did. Bigly, in fact.
