Conspiracy theorist said to have been key promoter of false rumour about immigrants ex-president repeated in debate
Republicans are blaming the influence of Laura Loomer, a rightwing conspiracy theorist, for this week’s botched debate performance by Donald Trump, which included the former president repeating a bizarre and unfounded claim that pet cats and dogs were being eaten by Haitian immigrants.
Loomer flew with Trump on his private plane to Tuesday’s debate in Philadelphia and has been identified as a key promoter of the pets rumour, which has been dismissed as false by authorities in Springfield, Ohio, where the practice was alleged to have been taking place.
…
Loomer, who styles herself as an “investigative journalist”, last year promoted a conspiracy theory alleging that 9/11 was an”inside job”. On Wednesday she posted an unfounded allegation that Harris had worn earphones disguised as earrings during the debate.
So they fixed the electoral college, and they know victory is all but certain. That’s why they came up with the most cruel and despicable lie so that when Trump wins, despite losing the debate, progressives and leftists and sane people will be heartbroken and soul shattered.
This is how you know the electoral college is fixed, they have no fear of repercussions
If the electoral college didn’t exist, then all you had to do was campaign in LA, SFO, ATL and NY and ignore the rest of the country because popular vote wins and the biggest population centers would matter more. This is a really stupid fucking take please stfu about abolishing the EC because abolishing it results in politicians ignore minorities and their issues (i.e. racism, poverty, etc)
Hmm, and where do you think minorities live?
The deep South actually has the highest percentage of the USA’s black population.

Which state and which presidential election has the indigenous vote been the thing that clinched things?

When do they look like they care now? I have never seen a president campaign on a reservation. Insulting me is not going to make your point make sense. Presidents might not care about the indigenous without the electoral college, but they don’t care with the electoral college either. It’s a moot point.
False. In fact, that would still be better than the handful of random swing states. Proportionality matters.
Besides, campaigns are run in the digital sphere anyway.
History proves you wrong. The fucking Three-Fifths Compromise proves you wrong! Imagine pretending we would somehow be more racist if we removed the Electoral College, I can’t even.
As opposed to now where they completely ignored the most populous states and only campaign in swing states? That’s not better. Also, it’s not even true. They’d have to actually campaign everywhere.
Fascist detected
Def not a fascist if you read my post history
Idiot, then.
Well, ignorant or misinformed. Idiot isn’t necessary.
So letting a bunch of isolated inbred hermits in the middle of nowhere decide everything instead is a better way of doing things?
Yeah and with the way they have shit setup now the county with 1000 dip shit rednecks has as much voting power as a city of 250,000.
So? As a red state rust belt resident we already have the house and the senate that make sure that the middle of nowhere gets represented in the government. My state isn’t on your list and has three cities with more people than Wyoming. Shouldn’t there be somewhere where the majority of Americans get their way?
Yeah we wouldnt want politicans to actually go where the majority of the people they serve live
