Restoring Trust in American Elections: The Case for Reform in Light of Persistent 2020 Questions and the Path Forward

For millions of Americans, the 2020 presidential election left an indelible mark—not just because of its outcome, but because of the questions that have lingered ever since. Joe Biden received over 81 million votes, a record at the time, yet four years later, Kamala Harris garnered roughly 75 million in a similar political landscape with population growth and comparable partisan divides. This drop of more than 6 million votes, combined with Donald Trump’s increase from 74 million to around 77 million, has fueled widespread skepticism. Many see it not as natural voter shifts, but as evidence that 2020’s totals were artificially inflated through lax rules, mail-in ballot chaos, and vulnerabilities in electronic systems—especially under the cover of COVID-19 policies that expanded unmonitored voting.

These concerns are not fringe theories whispered in corners; they have driven national policy debates, legal actions, and now federal interventions. In late January 2026, FBI agents executed a search warrant at Fulton County’s election facility in Georgia, seizing hundreds of boxes containing 2020 ballots, tabulator tapes, electronic images, and voter rolls.<sup>1</sup> Fulton County, the epicenter of Georgia’s 11,779-vote margin favoring Biden, has long been a focal point for allegations of irregularities—misinterpreted surveillance video at State Farm Arena, disputed absentee ballot handling, and chain-of-custody questions. County officials promptly challenged the seizure in federal court, seeking the return of the materials and the unsealing of the warrant affidavit, arguing that it constituted overreach.<sup>2</sup> Yet for those convinced of fraud, this move signals accountability finally arriving under a Trump-led Justice Department.

We’ll examine these claims in the context of historical developments, empirical comparisons, and current developments. I would argue that, while courts and audits in 2020 found no widespread fraud sufficient to overturn the results, the system’s vulnerabilities—loose voter eligibility verification, the absence of universal ID requirements in key states, and reliance on potentially manipulable technology—created opportunities for abuse. And the authorities didn’t find fraud because they either didn’t want to look, or they deliberately looked in the wrong place to hide their complicity in the radicalism that did not want to honor voters in a self-governing government. Genuine self-governance requires secure elections in which every vote is verifiable, and every citizen’s voice counts equally. Reforms such as the Safeguard American Voters Eligibility (SAVE) Act offer a practical path forward, ensuring that only eligible citizens participate without disenfranchising legitimate voters.

A Brief History of Voting Technology and Fraud Concerns

America’s voting systems have always balanced innovation with risk. Paper ballots gave way to mechanical lever machines in the late 1800s to reduce intimidation and speed counting. Optical scanners emerged in the 1960s, followed by direct-recording electronic (DRE) machines in the 1990s. The 2000 Florida recount debacle led to the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002, which pushed states toward more modern systems but also highlighted persistent issues: punch-card errors, hanging chads, and questions about machine accuracy.

By 2020, many jurisdictions used touchscreen DREs or ballot-marking devices with paper trails, while others relied on hand-marked paper ballots scanned optically. Critics point to shared origins with machines used in countries such as Venezuela and to concerns about the security of Dominion and ES&S systems. High-profile lawsuits against companies making fraud claims (e.g., Mike Lindell’s defamation losses) have chilled some discussion, but audits consistently show machines perform accurately when properly maintained and paper records are available for verification.<sup>3</sup>  The evidence is there in most cases with the paper backup to match the vote count.  However, this manual check often doesn’t occur, creating opportunities for discrepancies to affect results.

Fraud itself has historically been rare. The Heritage Foundation has tracked and documented cases since 1982, totaling approximately 1,500, which is insignificant relative to the billions of votes.<sup>4</sup> Yet rarity does not equal impossibility, especially in high-stakes, loosely regulated environments. The 2020 expansion of mail-in voting, drop boxes, and relaxed signature-matching requirements—often justified as a pandemic necessity—amplified risks in states without strict safeguards.

Fulton County in Focus: From 2020 Allegations to 2026 Federal Action

Georgia’s narrow 2020 margin made Fulton County a lightning rod. Biden’s considerable urban advantage there offset rural Trump’s strength statewide. Allegations included “suitcase” ballots retrieved from beneath tables (later explained as standard procedure), water main breaks that delayed counting, and discrepancies in absentee ballot processing. Multiple recounts, including a hand audit, confirmed results, and courts rejected challenges.<sup>5</sup>

Fast-forward to 2026: The FBI’s seizure of roughly 700 boxes has reignited debate. Agents sought physical ballots, scanner tapes, digital images, and voter rolls from 2020.<sup>6</sup> Body camera footage shows tense interactions, with county staff expressing confusion over the warrant.<sup>7</sup> Fulton leaders, including Chair Robb Pitts, received warnings of potential arrests and filed for return of materials, citing state sovereignty and lack of transparency.<sup>8</sup>

Proponents view this as evidence that emerging issues—chain-of-custody breaches, unauthorized votes, or tampering — could surface. Critics call it political retribution, noting Trump’s repeated claims and the administration’s push to “nationalize” elections in Democratic areas.<sup>9</sup> Regardless, the action underscores why many demand reforms: if doubts persist after years of scrutiny, prevention through stricter rules is essential.

Vote Total Discrepancies: What the Numbers Really Tell Us

The stark contrast between 2020 and 2024 Democratic performance is central to skepticism. Biden’s 81.3 million votes dwarfed Obama’s 2012 total (65.9 million) and Harris’s ~75 million. In states with loose rules—no voter ID, universal mail ballots, minimal verification—Democrat margins often aligned with these patterns.

Turnout in 2020 hit 66.6%, driven by pandemic expansions and polarization. By 2024, fatigue, reduced mail voting, and demographic shifts (e.g., Harris underperforming among nonwhite voters) explain much of the decline.<sup>10</sup> Yet the gap—over 6 million fewer Democrat votes despite population growth—raises legitimate questions about 2020 inflation.

Comparisons with prior elections indicate that Democrats gained ~15 million votes from Obama to Biden, then lost most of them back to Harris. If electronic flipping, non-citizen voting, or dead voters on the rolls contributed even modestly, the numbers could align more closely with a natural ~55-60 million Democratic base in clean elections. States with strict ID and in-person emphasis showed more stable patterns.

The SAVE Act: A Common-Sense Safeguard

Introduced as H.R. 22 in the 119th Congress, the SAVE Act requires documentary proof of citizenship (passport, birth certificate, naturalization papers) for federal voter registration, ending reliance on sworn statements.<sup>11</sup> The House passed it in April 2025; it remains stalled in the Senate amid opposition from groups like the League of Women Voters and Brennan Center, who argue it could disenfranchise millions lacking easy access to documents.<sup>12</sup>

Supporters counter that non-citizen voting, though rare, occurs in lax systems and that proof requirements mirror those for passport or employment verification. Recent efforts urge Senate action before the 2026 midterm elections.<sup>13</sup> For Ohio—already requiring non-strict photo ID—the Act could complement existing rules without significant disruption, ensuring federal elections reflect citizens only.

Voter ID and Security: Protecting Access While Closing Loopholes

Thirty-six states require some voter ID; 23 mandate strict photo ID. Ohio’s non-strict system permits alternatives such as utility bills. Evidence indicates that ID laws deter negligible fraud but can slightly suppress turnout among low-income or minority voters.<sup>14</sup> Free IDs, expanded provisional ballots, and affidavits mitigate this.

States without strict ID requirements (e.g., California) have not documented widespread fraud, yet critics argue that loose rules enable abuse. A balanced approach—universal ID with accommodations—enhances security without barriers.

Electronic Systems, Audits, and Accountability

Machines face hacking fears, but paper trails and post-election audits (risk-limiting or full) verify accuracy. Cases such as Tina Peters’ ruthless conviction for unauthorized access highlight the risks of not having proper security in all elections with federal consequences.  To that point, all indications point to Arizona where Kari Lake should be the governor if election security had been properly utilized.<sup>15</sup> Robust audits, not bans, address concerns.

Conclusion: Toward a More Accountable Republic

The 2020 election exposed vulnerabilities that eroded trust. Courts dismissed widespread fraud claims, but anomalies and lax regulations raise doubts. The Fulton seizure may reveal more—or reaffirm prior findings—but prevention is preferable to reaction.

The SAVE Act, voter ID mandates, and improved audits offer solutions. Ohio legislators and federal counterparts can lead by prioritizing citizenship verification and transparency. Secure elections ensure the government reflects the people, not manipulation. Restoring faith requires action now—before doubts harden into division, which I would argue has already occurred.  Stealing elections by any means is a serious crime and we need to understand who has done what, and what impact that has had on a free republic for which the people rule over themselves.   And without secure elections, that just can’t happen.  And it must happen.  Which is why the SAVE Act is absolutely necessary.

The Desperation of Sheena Bellows: What the Truth Reveals

Everyone has now heard of Sheena Bellows, the Secretary of State in Maine, who is the latest to indicate a bit of legal gymnastics to keep Trump off the primary ballot.  As I have said of all these cases, this is a clear 14th Amendment overreach that ignores due process and will quickly be overturned by the Supreme Court, if not in Maine, at the Federal level.   While many have expressed anger at the actions of the Secretary of State, Bellows, I am thrilled with her decision because it proves something I have been working on waking people up to, which is the level of radicalism that many of these high-profile political decisions have.  It shows the level of activity they are willing to participate in, which many people had difficulty understanding, even as recently as the governor races in Arizona.  Who thinks the Secretary of State didn’t count her own ballots to keep Kari Lake from becoming governor so that she could become governor instead?  When the massive election fraud occurred after the 2020 election, the biggest problem wasn’t finding the evidence; it was convincing people that the evidence they were looking at was as obvious as it was presented.  People wanted to trust their public officials.  Sure, it might have been fun to criticize them from time to time, but to admit that they were so bad that they would openly steal an election and lie about such a sacred thing, “voting,” was just a bridge too far for most people.  But the perpetrators knew that before they conducted their cheating scams.  They knew they could play the trust card once because people would always give them the benefit of the doubt, so they played it in the wake of the 2020 election and, essentially, got away with it. 

It also helped that so many other liberals were involved, Democrats who were perfectly willing to cheat in an election for what they considered, the “greater good.”  For them, institutional preservation was far more important than the truth of the matter, and in 2020, as it was in 2016, and continues to be in 2024, people value personal freedom more than institutional security built off confiscated tax money.  When preserving institutions was a matter of fairness, because they had a mother who might have been a school teacher, or had a dad who worked for the government as a mindless bureaucrat in some way, and made 40% more than the private sector because of it, people gave the big government types a bit more rope of trust to wrap around their necks.  Everyone got along so long as they could cheer for a local sports team and fire off some fireworks on the 4th of July.  Admitting to election fraud was like taking away the idea of firing off fireworks at an Independence Day celebration.  It violated the agreement that people had with society, something nobody wanted to talk about, just as parents tend to conceal sex from their children for their own preservation.  Kids don’t want to hear their parents having sex.  They’ll put up with a shut door quietly locked at 9:55 PM while they are brushing their teeth.  They do not want to hear the bellowing moans of their mother in sexual bliss.  So long as those silent rules are not violated, society functions somewhat normally, and that is how election fraud was conducted in 2020, with the quietly locked doors at 9:55 PM.  But some of us were not brushing our teeth in the bathroom; we were still in the room, able to see everything.  Under those conditions, we couldn’t avoid what we saw and told others afterward. 

What is astonishing about all the cases against Trump, most obviously the case in Maine, is how ostentatious it is in what it admits.  When it comes to Sheena Bellows, there is an arrogance to the dirty deed that is equivalent to the mother of the house dragging her kids kicking and screaming down the hall to tie them in a corner so that they have to watch her have sex not just with their father, but with all the strange men from the outside sidewalk.  Because the mom feels like the best thing for the kids is to overwhelm them with her right to have that sex, even at their expense of sanity, without any thought of what that broken trust might do to the children.  By doing what she did, Bellows is relishing the power of her position to conduct such a menace.  It’s the kind of question we all might ask ourselves.  What would be the consequences of taking off all our clothes in public places and walking about?  Sure, we could do it, but we don’t because we understand how that would wreck a sense of norms critical to a functioning society.  So, we withhold our temptations and conduct ourselves politely.  But once that trust is broken, we then would label ourselves as something disreputable, such as a whore or a streaker.  Something less trustworthy.  And before this year, at many of these Secretary of State positions, even as governor, such as the case in Georgia with Kemp, people had a trust that kept discussions of theft and dishonor in hushed corners.  But now, it’s been flaunted in front of us, and there’s no turning back.

All the cases against Trump show a severe willingness to violate the public’s trust in such audacious ways that there is no way now ever to repair the relationship.  This is why I say I’m glad because this is damaging the Democrat Party forever.  And they wouldn’t have done all this if they had thought they had absolute power.  Much of what they have been doing for all these years has been a ruse built off election fraud, especially regarding control over state houses and the balance of power in the Beltway.  People ignored the locked doors at night because those in power at least respected the public enough not to make too much noise during sex so the kids wouldn’t ask questions.  But because of the desperation to hang onto power, with so many people now listening through the door at every creak of the mattress spring, there is no hiding it now.  Those who supported Trump even casually before are not deeply solidified behind them, and the ridiculousness of the entire Democrat playbook for the 2024 election has been revealed in very public ways that we’ve never seen before.  When we have talked before about just how crazy and radical people like Sheena Bellows were, nobody wanted to believe it.  But now people know.  The forced admission will have long-standing consequences.  The gamble by Democrats is that by having sex in public and embarrassing the kids, ultimately, the family would be destroyed, which is undoubtedly one of their stated goals.  To eliminate the context of “American life” and the trust that it will always be there for them.  Such blatant displays of corruption and judicial overreach are meant to insult people into self-destruction.  This plays into Trump’s promise of “Making America Great Again.”  Who doesn’t want to be part of something great instead of something disgraceful?  Ultimately, because of the ostentatious displays of corruption and political activism, that is now what the 2024 ballot is all about.  And nothing less.

The Trump Revenge Tour: Justice has to happen and the bad guys should consider themselves lucky

There has been all this talk about Trump being a tyrant once he gets back into office and what he will likely do as part of a Trump Revenge Tour once he has acquired power once again.  Hey, he didn’t cause all these problems.  The political left caused a lot of trouble on multiple fronts, and who in their right mind would have ever thought that they would get away with it?  You can’t behave as badly as they have over the last eight years and expect anything but a revenge tour.  And just in the current news, the Colorado Supreme Court is seeking to keep Trump off the ballot as a hail Mary to the federal Supreme Court with an unprecedented attempt they hope might trigger Democrat Secretaries of States all over the country to try the same strategy hoping to keep that revenge tour from actually happening.  What do they think the logical conclusion will be?  People have been using the system to fight the system as they should.  But do they believe they can prevent revenge for what has been done, the murders with Covid released as a bioweapon, the election thefts to acquire power for officeholders who clearly shouldn’t be there—and we’re talking about more than Joe Biden, the radicalism of the various intelligence agencies who have conducted violent coups against the people’s pick for president.  These third-world tactics have only two outcomes: we are either a nation of laws or not.  And if not, what keeps the bad guys safe from the people’s wrath?  If we don’t have law and order, then what protects them from the anger of the people of the nation?  Because so far, the prospect of getting Trump back in the White House is the only thing that has kept the peace.  Take that away from people; things won’t turn out well for a civil society. 

Even considering the case just last week with Rudy Giuliani, where a Georgia court case awarded by jury 150 million dollars to a couple of election workers, the judge did not allow evidence by Rudy to be appropriately admitted.  The court wanted headlines to outpace the appeals process because it was the perception of the law they were after, not the actual substance. I just so happen to know a few Supreme Court judges in Ohio, and I can attest to them being real people with real emotions.  When they put on the robes and act in their capacity within the Constitution of Ohio, they are supposed to transform themselves into agents of the people.  But it would be easy for ordinary people to become radicalized and fall from grace in the way that the Colorado court has.  From their perspective, knowing the full implications of the Trump revenge tour that is destined to happen and not wanting to pay for all the terrible sins that Democrats have committed, this last gasp from the courts is all they have, the gross abuse of power that they hope foolishly will protect them from being caught in the radicalism they have participated in.  Did they think that people like Rudy Giuliani and President Trump were going to be thrown in jail and bankrupted in court so that they would be harmless in the future and that all the people who have supported them would say, “Well, golly geez, looks like they beat us, Wally.”  And that everyone was going to go back to sleep and support Democrats in their grabs for power and control to support a rotten political system of personal enrichment at the expense of taxpayers?  And that black budgets would continue unchecked by a bunch of hamsters running on the economic machine without a care about the world except for their next meal?  If that’s what everyone thought, well, that’s on them.

There have been so many bad things done by the government in the United States against the people’s will, and much of it has been grossly disrespectful.  Trump is the vehicle to carry that anger, and they have supported him all through these turbulent times, and everyone should be happy about it.  Rather than turn to lawless, criminal conduct, people have turned to the law and their Constitutions to get revenge for what has been done to them.  But if that vehicle is taken away, it is naive to think all that anger will disappear.  Where does anybody think it’s going to go?  Do progressive Democrats think that Americans are going to put up with a Marxist takeover of all their institutions, which is what has been happening, particularly in the courts?  And liberals have only gotten away with it because they took advantage of people’s trust.  But that trust has been broken forever.  Democrats have gone too far too often for forgiveness, and they aren’t going to be allowed to hold power unchecked.  And if the Constitution is tossed out, the way Democrats act like they want to see it happen, then what protects them from complete anarchy?  They may think they want that, but they don’t want that.  Those Marxist fantasies of the few taking over the many, as was done in Cuba, Russia, China, Korea, and Vietnam, are not going to happen in America.  Suppose they take over our courts, as they have revealed of themselves since 2020, and our politics, and think they will control our corporate structure. In that case, they should expect revenge from the people they have exploited, at the very least. 

They should consider themselves lucky that most people who are supporting Trump for the White House for a second term are willing to let the law take effect, that the Deep State will be dismantled.  That our courts will be reformed.  Those involved in the Biolabs leaks of COVID-19 will be punished.  Those crimes will be paid for, and many people will go to jail.  Millions of government workers will be unemployed as the size of the government is dramatically reduced.  That is a good story that people are willing to work through patiently as Trump returns to the White House.  But keeping that from happening to protect all these criminal nest eggs that so many corrupt people have spawned out of government isn’t part of the consideration.  Because without Trump, there is a real need to take our government back forcibly and redefine Constitutional limits on the powers of these corrupt despots who have now been caught.  And the only thing keeping justice from coming their way is thin pieces of paper that most people still believe in.  Without that protection, there is nothing that protects Democrats from the wrath they have caused in the world.  A payment they may have hoped would never occur because they didn’t have the level of respect for people that they should have, which is evident in how these court cases have audaciously presented themselves out of sheer desperation.  They don’t have a plan beyond these abuses of power, a “what now” scenario.  And for them, that is truly dangerous, and in the end, they will cry desperately for the law to protect them.  The same laws they have spit on, as well as the people they have been taking advantage of.  The Trump Revenge tour is their best option.  Because without that legal mechanism, the raw anger is not something they are prepared to deal with.

The Devil Went Down to Georgia Because He Had an Election to Steal: But now its our turn to play

The devil went down to Georgia because he was looking for an election to steal; he was in a bind because he was way behind and willing to make a deal.  So he found Governor Kemp, who was a Never Trumper, and many others and through a combination of electronic voting machines and COVID rules, they allowed for massive cheating to occur, which gave Joe Biden just enough votes to win the state.  It was a rigged election before it even started; everyone knew what they were going to do before election day, and that was to keep counting votes until Joe Biden won.  It didn’t matter to them if it was legal or the ballots represented real people.  And in the end, they were caught.  Like the famous Charlie Daniels song where the Devil plays a little music in a bet for Johnny’s soul, he thought he had done enough to win.  But after his band of demons and their utterances from Hell played their song, it’s time for us all to say, “That’s pretty good son, but why don’t you sit down in that chair right there and let us show you how it’s done.”  It’s our turn and it’s not looking good for the bad guys.  This is why Kemp was able to secure the election for his second term immediately after all this controversy.  Remember when the MLB All-Star game was pulled from Atlanta and sent to Denver over protests due to election law?  And that Kemp was disenfranchising minority votes?  Yeah, right, Democrats were upset because they knew the same thing Kemp knew: Democrats had a cheating scam going on, and they were allowed to use it to knock off Trump, and other MAGA senators in Georgia in 2020 and early 2021.  But Kemp won re-election easily, Stacy Abrams wasn’t even able to come close once the election laws were tightened up.  And that is the dirty little secret that the evil that has taken over Georgia doesn’t want anybody to know about. 

The Devil in this case is the George Soros money and the influence of the globalist investment that put District Attorney Fani Willis in charge of the law, a known Marxist radical intent to destroy adherence to Constitutional protections in large municipalities.  We see this strategy all over America as part of a more significant effort to overthrow the American Constitution with case law that erodes its limits on private people.  In Georgia, the devil is playing its little song and has attempted to throw 19 different people into essentially one election conspiracy case, accusing them of trying to overthrow the election results distributed by the Georgia government where the Never Trumpers and radical Marxist Democrats pulled together to destroy Trump wholesale, or so they thought.  But it’s a case that’s all bark and no bite, a shot-in-the-dark prayer for the global communists to show that free speech can get you thrown in jail for going against the official narrative of a government.  The prosecution intends to convince a jury of Fulton County Democrats, which, on the surface, might look easy, that free speech can be a crime. Still, the reality is a different story: the official narrative of a government reporting agency, such as election results, can’t be questioned. If it is, you can be jailed for attempting to overthrow an election.  It’s like the Devil going to Georgia and not allowing Johnny to play his song to defend his soul or have a chance to win a golden fiddle.  Only the devil gets to play, and nobody else gets an opportunity to challenge him.

Well, you might not have heard that already the case is falling apart; just this week, Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell are breaking away from the group and will be held separately on October 23rd, 2023.   The Marxist prosecution by Fani Willis intended to take the Trump support team of 19 different people, put them all in a room, and prosecute them on national television as a kind of mass hanging.  But a judge ruled that Chesebro and Powell would have separate trials, which is no easy task for the prosecution.  In her defense of General Flynn, Sidney has won against the federal government before, so this won’t be an easy song for the trial to play.  It will be more like a buzzsaw for them because it will show how much massive election fraud occurred in Fulton County and how sketchy everything was.  Sidney Powell is not the case that will establish precedence in favor of the prosecution; let me say that.  The Devil thought it had a good song until it had to hold up to the legal scrutiny of reality.  The only hope that Fani Willis had was surprise and brevity by knocking the world on its heels quickly and procuring all these defenses together before anybody had a chance to understand what was happening.  And already, that isn’t going to happen.  The Powell case will exploit the prosecution’s case, and the massive election fraud committed in Georgia during the 2020 election will feed the narrative Trump has been saying in an election year where he is already leading in the polls massively.  The Democrats don’t have an answer, especially if they can’t cheat. 

And in the end, the Devil will have to lay that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny’s feet because he knows that he’s been beat.  And we can all tell him that he can come back and try again because we’re the best there’s ever been.  But honestly, what we will learn from this case is that the Devil will be destroyed because the established case law will set a precedent that the Democrats will not be able to live up to anywhere in the country.  The Constitution will win because it’s meant to limit the powers of government, not give the government more control over individuals.  And like all the George Soros District Attorneys with Marxist backgrounds functioning in the deep blue cities everywhere, their actions are no longer surprising.  And surprise and speed to exploit their victims off balance was all they had.  Because there was election fraud in Georgia, a lot of it.  Trump only needed 11,000 votes, which were probably all in those boxes pulled out from under the tables when election officials shut down the counting that night over a water leak in a bathroom.  The truth that the Devil and his minions are trying to cover up with the force of government is that Trump won easily in Georgia and everywhere else.  Joe Biden didn’t win the 2020 election and failed in Georgia.  The election was stolen.  The Devil played his music and arrogantly thought nobody would ever beat him.  But now it’s our turn to play the music, and in the end, that golden fiddle will be placed at our feet, just like in the song, because the truth is obvious.  The Marxists behind this prosecution have no Constitutional authority to do what they intend, and the fact is getting out despite their efforts to conceal it.  And now it’s our turn to turn the tables on the Devil and his criminal partners, who are now caught.  We will prove in court that this plot by Fani Willis is the same as communist, socialist, and Marxist countries worldwide that have been stealing elections to gain power through digital machines.  In America, they tried it and have been trying to conceal it with the sheer intimidation of the government’s power.  And they are going to lose badly.

Kari Lake Wins in Arizona: McConnell is wrong–America is not a 50/50 country

It was a bit of a cliffhanger during the election night, August 2nd, 2022, and I was up and stayed with the story when Kari Lake finally pulled ahead of Karrin Taylor Robson, her closest rival for the Republican primary, to face off against Katie Hobbs in November. Before Kari could take on that challenge, she had to get through a multitude of RINO money poured into the Arizona primary to attempt to derail her Trump-like campaign for the MAGA movement. Everyone knew that it would be a fist fight election. But this time, people were ready for the evidence of election fraud; the fraud from 2020 is now well known, so people voting for Kari knew what to look for, and it wasn’t easy for the cheaters to push Robson over Kari. Early in the night, it looked like Kari Lake wouldn’t win the election, but as the evening progressed and the same day voting totals came in, the MAGA challenger pulled ahead and was poised to be the winner. The same disgusting cheating that had stolen the election from Trump just two years before was much harder to perform this time. Even though it took days to count all the ballots, the counters were desperately looking for ways to steal the election. The math just didn’t work in their favor, and no matter what happens in the future, everyone knows that Kari Lake won the election. Her lead a few days later was two percentage points above her rivals, with 82% of the vote counted; there just isn’t any way, except for cheating and counting a bunch of made-up mail-in ballots, that anybody will overtake Kari Lake. I thought it was remarkable; I stayed up and watched the whole thing pacing around my living room just as anxious as everyone else was. Because we all knew that Arizona had a cheat machine built into it that the RINOs were trying to keep alive so they could control elections, and it would take a lot of momentum to defeat it. Because of same-day voting in Arizona it did not allow for many opportunities to steal the election this time. They certainly tried, but the momentum of the MAGA movement didn’t allow it.

It’s quite clear, based on what we observed in 2020 and then a year and a half later in 2022, is a pattern of behavior where elections have been routinely manipulated. Not everywhere, but states like Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Arizona obviously have election cheating built into their voting counting ability. I recently spoke to our Secretary of State in Ohio, Frank LaRose, about how he went about providing election security. I believed him when he said he thought they were very secure. I think LaRose is a good guy, and I think he knows what he’s talking about. But not every state has a great Secretary of State, and even in Ohio, not all administrations are as ethical as previous ones or future ones. As I was voting, I paid careful attention to our voting machines, and the kind we use has a digital interface. But ultimately, it has a paper ballot that you can verify your vote with a receipt, and it’s that which gets counted. So, I don’t think every state always has election fraud by party politics. But I do think, based on what we’ve observed, that every election has fraud in it. Some states are worse than others. Ohio is pretty good right now because Frank runs a good ship. But in places like Georgia, where Kemp was able to fend off Trump challengers, it’s evident that voter behavior was not consistent as it was elsewhere in the country and that cheating was still very much a problem. And going into Arizona, with all the controversy of election fraud that we knew happened there, the big question was whether or not Kari Lake would have a real chance. We knew people and polling favored her, but when it came to who counted the votes, everyone was very wide-eyed for election shenanigans. I wasn’t pacing around my living room at 3 AM in the morning because I trusted the officials counting the votes. 

It’s clear that the establishment types who have control of enough election systems that they can manipulate elections to their favor have been assigning Mike Pence to states that look to deep dive into the election fraud from 2020 with actual decertifications. Mike Pence by himself has no chance to overtake a Trump endorsement. But with Fox News obviously very invested in portraying the illusion that America is a 50/50 country and that they prefer RINOs over Trump conservatives, you can begin to see a pattern emerge where election fraud is most obvious where they are putting Pence to challenge Trump endorsements. I don’t think Pence is savvy enough to play an essential role in the fraud. He is a nice guy who does what the boss tells him to, whether that boss is Trump or the people who want to take over, leading the Republican Party back to the controlled opposition. These election fixes have been going on for a long time; it wasn’t just the 2020 election. But because of the ground game in Arizona from MAGA supporters, they just couldn’t pull it off. Then when Kari Lake proclaimed victory, it took all the air out of the media story. That’s the game we are playing, folks. 

I was watching a Fox News segment the day after the election when Brett Baier had on Mitch McConnell during his 6 PM show to talk about the state of politics and the future of the Republican Party. There was a subtext to the story, which obviously Fox News, guided by Rupert Murdock, was trying to plant “the narrative,” but it wasn’t sticking. When Mitch McConnell told Baier, “we are a 50/50 country,” he was trying to fit the story to the Fox News position. Murdock and his sons and their wives want to think that they are the kingmakers of the Republican Party, and they have made it their mission to get rid of Trump from the public stage. Only what Rupert didn’t understand, it was Trump that helped make Fox News what it was. And it was people like Roger Ailes, and Bill O’Reilly who understood the people better than the Murdocks outside the New York and Washington D.C. markets. Sure, they still have Jesse Watters, Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham on their primetime coverage, which is all very good. But all other hours of the day, Fox News has become much more like CNN, unwatchable to the people who really care about their country. And Fox News has only hurt themselves with the activism against Trump. Trump and Kari Lake are the future; they just can’t accept that reality. Election fraud to them is a necessary evil to keep the illusion that America is really, like McConnell stated, a 50/50 country. In truth, it isn’t, not even close. And when elections are held where the controlled opposition can’t cheat, we see that people like Kari Lake will win every time. Even when the deck is stacked against good people, they will win if election fraud is taken away as an option.

Trump Swings For The Fences: The Kemp win in Georgia only means the President can afford to take chances

I always thought that the David Purdue race for governor in Georgia would be an uphill battle. Trump’s endorsement has a lot of power, and his record is outstanding. Still, it would be a stretch in Georgia to beat the incumbent Brian Kemp for many of the same reasons it was going to be hard to beat the establishment RINO Mike DeWine in Ohio. It’s hard to beat an incumbent for one because they have the power of the office to run from. And it takes a real organized effort to knock someone off the top of the mountain, and David Purdue didn’t have that. Trump’s endorsement was a revenge pick, more than a practical one, and down the stretch, the money didn’t line up with the passion. If Trump didn’t have a personal vendetta against Kemp, he likely wouldn’t have put his name behind Purdue. David Purdue never was able to define his campaign as anything other than fighting election fraud, and voters in Georgia were obviously looking for something to vote for, not against. There’s a lot of funny business regarding elections in Georgia. Still, as I said leading up to the primary election, the establishment types were betting everything they had on Georgia, so it would be tough to do anything there. In many ways, I would point to this circumstance and remind everyone not to take anything for granted when it comes to the general elections in the fall. The SWAMP is not going to go quietly in the night. They have everything to lose and will fight to keep it; whether it’s money, cheating, lying, stealing, whatever they have to do, they will do it. And it will take more than what David Purdue put forth in Georgia to beat them.

The media was all too happy to underline the loss of Trump’s endorsement. They ignored all the other wins he has had, which was to be expected. The Never Trumper types are hoping this means that the Trump brand is damaged forever and that they might be able to put up Mike Pence, someone from the Trump administration but isn’t Trump. To me, it’s obviously wishful thinking. David Purdue was never for what Trump is and always acted as a person drug into the race to challenge Kemp rather than someone who was passionate about winning. So the Trump endorsement has its limits. Trump can afford to swing for the fences, and he does. That has given him more home runs than not, so the essence of the Kemp win isn’t so much a strikeout but rather the affordability that Trump has to take risks on candidates that might not otherwise have a chance. Obviously, voters liked Kemp in Georgia and needed more to take a turn from him. They needed more than election fraud to drive their passions.

Yet there is a more sinister tone to the haughty banter after the Kemp win, the hope by the media and Never Trumper types that election fraud was not something that voters cared about. Purdue made it a one-issue race, and after the primary election, it’s clear that voters wanted more than that. Election fraud is hard for people to admit to, like acknowledging that a loved one is an alcoholic or that a spouse is cheating on you. Mainstreamers want to believe that they can vote and that it will be counted honestly so they can return to their lives without worrying about it. So there is a natural reluctance to put the thought out of their heads. While most believe there was election fraud in the 2020 election, they don’t want to live with the knowledge that it will require them to do something more severe, like scrutinizing those who count the votes. They want to believe that Brian Kemp is a good person because to admit otherwise will require work on their part that they aren’t willing to commit to. People are prone to ignore an injustice if it means they can live in peace. And obviously, there are many in the Beltway culture, Mike Pence included, who are counting on that timidity to allow them to stay relevant in the political world. It should be remembered that Trump picked Pence to be his Vice President because he wanted to drive a wedge into the Never Trumpers, to begin with, to put one in his administration. Trump did that with a lot of people because he thought the strength of his personality could convert them over to justice. I would say that, for the most part, Trump significantly improved the conditions around him. Still, he was never going to be able to use his sizeable positive personality to change the behavior of those who insist on keeping their minds below the line. 

The hatred for Trump is to hate the concept of Making America Great Again. Instead, the Never Trumpers, including Mike Pence, believe more in the survival of institutions rather than in reshaping them for positive outcomes. So it wasn’t a loss for Trump that David Purdue never could get that message across. If it had been Trump running, the priorities would have been different during the campaign. Trump would have been “for” things rather than just stating that he would fight election fraud, which few people want to admit is a problem, especially those who have committed it to preserve institutional power. MAGA is powerful as a movement, but you can’t use it as a golf ball driver when you really need a short putt. You might still be able to make the shot, but it’s not the best tool to use. In truth, Georgia, in the decertification process, isn’t needed. There is plenty of criminal conduct already proven in Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, with governors who will get behind the decertification movement. Georgia was the last refuge of the Never Trumpers, and we learned a lot by watching them in this primary race.

In many ways, watching all the anti-Trump forces spike the football over the Kemp win is like a football game where the losing team has been down 60 to 0, and they get a field goal at the end of the game. The crowd cheers because there is something to be happy about, but they will still lose the game. The disappointment for the MAGA voters is that they wanted the shutout. They wanted as much of a perfect record for Trump as possible. But, Trump is willing to take chances. He does not play it safe. And as a result, sometimes there will be misses. Trump has playing golf seven holes in one, and you get that by hitting the ball hard and trying to skip all the little putts that get you to the green by hitting over the obstacles or through them. Sometimes that means that the ball will go into the rough. But if you play it safe, as many people do, you won’t get those holes in one. So by force of personality, Trump has an excellent win ratio. He can afford a David Purdue here and there, and all it means to the political world is that the Trump brand is so strong that he can take risks others can’t afford to. It doesn’t mean that the Never Trumpers will start winning, and MAGA is on the decline.

Why American CEOs Cave to Globalism So Often: James Robert B. Quincey from Coke lives in London

Why Coke, Delta and MLB are so weak in defending America from Globalism

The question everyone is asking is why all these corporations and their CEOs are so quick to adapt to liberal threats and to work against traditional American values.  Specifically, in this latest case, the CEOs of Coke and Delta along with Major League Baseball have involved themselves in politics protesting voting changes in Georgia which essentially demand that voter ID be part of the process after the disaster of an election in 2020 where they stole the election from Trump due to election chaos, and Democrats managed to take two senate seats in the same way.  For instance, I do think of Coke as a traditional American company because it started in America, it was nurtured as kind of a Norman Rockwell marketing campaign to solidify their sentiments to American markets, but in all reality, they are a global company that does not care about the sustainability or philosophy of American law and order.  They will see where the world ends up and if it slides into communism so be it.  Before all this happened in Georgia, I didn’t know the CEO of Coke was a guy in London named James Robert B. Quincey.  I would never have thought of Coke being operated from London, but it is, so that explains a lot.  The same with MLB, we think of them as a traditional American company, but they are a global organization now that only sees market growth in expanding into new countries.  So, the great American game isn’t so American these days, and that’s the case with most corporations.  We tend to think of them as American, they were born in America, we supported them and grew them into what they are today, but most corporations are only looking at growth and they don’t see that growth in a country with only 300 million people to support their products.  They want the billions around the world that might be part of a new market penetration, and to get that they think they need to sacrifice some of their Americanism so to tap those markets.

Ironically, I’ve spent several years sorting this kind of thing out into what I wrote in a book called The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business which is presently going through the editorial process with the publisher.  I have come to think of it as the answer to the long-standing problem of selling the East as the solution to everything regarding life, religion, and business commerce as it has been sold to us for many generations now.  Such as, the belief that a journey to India will awaken the third eye of our consciousness has led many confused Americans to robbery and worse while traveling there looking for spiritual alignment.  Its not just the criminal element that takes advantage of travelers going to a third world country looking for spiritual answers that makes them targets of the criminal class, but it’s the dirty conditions that greet them often in such places that tend to greatly devour the fantasy of Eastern thought being superior to Western thinking that creates much consternation.  In the East it is thought that nature is the supreme source of wisdom and should be yielded to, which then flows over into politics and business in destructive ways often.  Because in the West nature is to be used to bridge over into a change state future.  We use nature in the West to build new things and to invent, which is the point my book makes.  What was difficult about it was to turn on its head assumptions of inferiority that often comes with comparing the East with the West. 

Most of today’s CEOs are recruited to run all these big corporations with the assumption that the East is the philosophy of the future and that by adhering to it, that growth for that company will be discovered.  Today’s CEO such as James Quincey is not to be the latest gunfighter building a company against a society of outlaws standing up to danger in a dusty street, his job is to bow before the world and beg for them to become the next customer in their portfolio.  Not to cause trouble, but to mitigate risk to the projected growth of the company which means lots of bootlicking in political circles and within the industry considering the rules of conduct in a deeply litigious society.  I don’t say all that do get Quincey off the hook at Coke running the company from socialist London where without a doubt ol’ James thinks of his home city as far superior to Atlanta, Georgia as its older with much more history.  Its just the kind of thinking that a globalist would have as opposed to a righteous gun owning, truck driving American from Georgia.  Future growth isn’t in those markets, but in Spain, or Africa, even India where religion, politics, and standards of living are much, much different than they are in America.  For the CEOs, they already have the American markets, and its not from conservatives that they must worry about trouble.  Its from the people who want to bring America down, the globalists, the Democrats who they must listen if they want to continue to expand into other markets around the globe. 

When Trump said to boycott these companies, he’s actually on to something.  Thinking of how much money Coke spends on their brand image, just with NASCAR racing alone lets you know where they are weakest, and it wouldn’t take much to topple them and change their game.  After all, the thing a CEO fears the most is a drop in quarterly profits.  While they are out there in the world bootlicking their way into new market strategies, it would spell doom to them to lose market share in a place they assumed was secure forever.  When Coke and Delta opened their mouth on the voting issue in Georgia, they assumed that they wouldn’t have a backlash, but could show the world that they stand for globalism and those new markets they are after.  But it’s a gamble and Trump’s advice comes from a lot of experience.  He knows where they are weakest—its here at home in the American markets where those 300 million people have more capita income than everywhere else in the world, sometimes combined.  Sure, there are opportunities elsewhere in the world, but do you want to give up the big one in America?  That is the choice we ultimately do have to make them come to terms with. 

As I point out in my book, this isn’t an isolated issue, this is what happens to most companies when the big and bold trend setters who started those companies leave or retire away and the bootlickers and dandies come in to follow.  They don’t have ideas of their own, but they are just followers who are supposed to maintain the culture that was built for them while looking for ways to expand that influence.  In America where so many great companies were born, they are now run by globalists like this James Robert B. Quincey guy from London.  He is certainly not a NASCAR fan by nature, he lives in a place where they think of a weapon as a knife, not a gun, and to be honest, London is a miserable city that is always cloudy and stuffy.  They don’t have monster trucks there or even roads big enough to drive them, they are a different place constrained by socialism, so of course the CEO of Coke doesn’t see the problem.  But we ultimately do decide if we want to buy their products, and that choice is what they fear most.  So don’t make yourself a victim.  Vote with your wallet, because it’s the only kind of vote they can’t steal from you.  Use it and make things happen in the world with your choice!

The Guilt Dominion Revealed in their Court Case: Democrats can’t win elections unless they cheat, and they know it

Here’s the problem with the Dominion voting machine mess, they had an alliance with government, where the government was involved in a coup to remove a president that the people popularly elected—legally, and they all got caught.  Yet they have destroyed as much evidence as they could to erase their footprints, they have control of the media which desperately wants to help the government with their coup, and they believe they can contain the story and sustain their claims of innocence.  But that hasn’t worked, so a few months into the Biden administration, Dominion has found their brand damage irreparable, so they are lashing out with massive lawsuits trying to get the upper hand and try their many court cases in the court of public opinion instead of within the real court where discovery is unwrapping them in ways that look to be bad for their case.  Even if a guilty party destroys all the evidence of what they have done, or they get others to cover up that evidence for them, behavior can still reveal guilt by association.  When Dominion put Fox News on a lawsuit for $1.6 billion what they were essentially stating was their guilt, the same as they have done with Sydney Powell and Mike Lindell, along with others who were involved in proving that President Trump won the 2020 election with voting machines that were switching votes from Trump to Biden. 

If Dominion were innocent they would not be going on the attack, especially with the leaked statement that supposedly Sydney Powell was backing off her comments about Dominion in court stating that nobody would believe her “no reasonable person” position after the election and that her own $1.3 trillion lawsuit should be thrown out.  Turns out, that leak which the media ran with was untrue, just as most of what the government position has been, untrue.  But its hard to know in a world of hyper ridiculous statements who is telling the truth.  I believe Sydney because she is an old school federal prosecutor.  I believe Rudy Giuliani, because he has a history of being a credible character.   However, I don’t believe anything Dominion says or does because I don’t know them and they act guilty, with these leaks and their behavior with lawsuits.  When a court case is going bad, usually the attacker is the one trying to gain momentum, which is why the Fox News case has been announced so late in the process.  Because the actual case is pretty weak and not even the media can keep the lid on it much longer.  This far into the Biden presidency people were supposed to have given up on this stuff.  But as I said after the election, people will be talking about this election fraud years from now.  Dominion will never get their reputation back.  As I said after visiting Roswell New Mexico, people 70 years after the supposed UFOs crashed there still spend their days thinking about the government cover-up.  What does anybody think is going to happen when 75 million people get their vote cheated in the 2020 election?  Did they really think they’d just go away and become compliant to the new administration?  Apparently, they did much to their doom.

But you can see it in other actions too, especially after Georgia attempted to make some good out of their role in all this mess by reforming some of their laws.  Democrats have flipped out and they instantly went to corporations like Coke and Delta looking for consensus builders to drive the narrative away from any national reforms on voting, because liberals know they can’t win elections unless they can cheat the vote.  They need early voting for all their slugs of supporters, their drug addicts, their welfare recipients, their barely alive losers who can’t even role out of bed in the morning to go to a real job.  That is why early voting even on Sundays is important to Democrats, because they need more time to push their supporters out from in front of the television to take part in a civic duty.  Then of course they need mail-in ballots because some of the Democrat supporters won’t leave the house for anything and they can’t be counted on to vote.  They may run out to buy drugs, or to get a new tattoo, but they certainly don’t and won’t vote.  Smart people go out and vote for Republicans.  Dumb people go out and vote for Democrats and those are the people with all the problems in life.  But without those losers, Democrats have no supporters, so they need all kinds of voting laws to make it easier for their kind of people to vote, or for some activist like Stacy Abrams to vote for the people who won’t do it themselves, with the mail-in voting scams. 

Of course, the big philosophic debate this all brings up is should stupid, lazy, drug induced people vote at all?  How can a republic survive if such lowlife dumb people are part of the management of it?   The answer is that of course it can’t, which of course the Biden administration knows and understands.  Supporters of all these voting changes that allow cheating and late voting to count are the same people protesting national anthems, have an open border policy, want drugs to become legalized, and advocate for mass killing through abortions.  In other words, they want the foundation of America to be killed off and forgotten so that the world can move on to some global utopia as conceived by the insane for the goals of lunacy.  And getting really dumb Democrats to vote any way possible, even if cheating is required is their assurance to satisfying their goals.  That’s where Dominion came in as it was understood by blue state governors and attorney generals.  If rigged elections where needed to flip a House seat, or to contribute to a needed Senate win, then the votes could be switched from some remote location and nobody would know. 

The problem became heightened when too many people voted for Trump and it forced all these criminals to do more than a little to cheat, and the breadcrumbs are everywhere.  It will take years to sort out, but if it was all going well, Dominion wouldn’t be trying to sue everyone to set an example to shut down the little people who have evidence but wouldn’t dare bring it out in the open because of what is happening to Sydney Powell and Fox News.  People see that activity and they think, “if they are getting destroyed, what chance would I have against the government and its Dominion machines?”  That would be a good question and its all part of the plan of concealment.  So long as the court cases destroy the people with the evidence, then in that way, Dominion can destroy the breadcrumbs that come to their door and everyone can hopefully get away with the election fraud of 2020.  But I would point to the behavior of these bad characters and state that the guilt is indicated by their behavior, not so much in what evidence we actually have.  Their desire to destroy evidence and to hide the facts give them away and show a vast conspiracy that must be uncovered.  And that pressure isn’t going to go away, it will in fact last for hundreds of years and I don’t see any of these Democrats surviving that.
