We would do better to choose leadership by lot.
But there would be those who would claim that game was rigged too.
Don' t expect change.
There is no "rigging" legally by lying to get votes. It isn't moral, but as far as machinery and oversight, we have always had that.
I'd tell any idiot who doubts the results of 2000 the same thing I say to the idiots who doubt the results of 16 or 20.
But Trump made a fucking clusterfuck mess both elections. He used propaganda and lied, and not your everyday political lie, but used scapegoating and vilification.
Never in my 54 years have I ever seen one presidential candidate behave in the vile manor he has. Every losing candidate prior to him conceded with grace, even Gore, even after the recount in Florida, even he conceded.
The bullshit of the former guy in this loss using the big lie, is that he won the last time the same states Obama won. He won the same states Bill Clinton and Bush Jr and Sr won, that is why they are called SWING STATES. The former guy simply lost enough swing state votes this time.
