Do you believe the 2020 election was stolen from Trump? Yes or no?

He underperformed down-ballot Republicans in the majority of the suburbs, nation-wide, FOR THE SECOND FRICKING STRAIGHT ELECTION. There were over 5.5 million and 5 million voters, in 2016 and 2020 respectively, who voted for at least 1 down-ballot R but didn't vote for Trump for President.

I've posted this before ( Underperforming). If you can't comprehend that then that's on you. If you want the numbers from other states that show how he underperformed, I'd be happy to give them to you.

This isn't something new. The same thing happened in 2016. In the Senate, Ron Johnson/Toomey/Isakson/Rubio/Grassley/Burr/Portman/Ayotte/McCain all received more votes than Trump did in their respective states. Heck, in Maine, Congressional R's got over 20K more votes than Trump did. Trump-ME ME CD1 ME CD2

In 2016 in TX, on a precinct-by-precinct basis, there were approximately 450K voters who voted for at least 1 down-ballot R but didn't vote for Trump. In 2020 in TX there were approximately 320K such voters (320,604 by my county). In Colorado, there were over 60K more votes for Congressional R's than for Trump

Trump is a terrible fit for appealing to these suburban voters, who are Republican and Republican-leaning Independents. Which is why they've split tickets the last 2 Presidential elections. That's why we've had at least 50 US Senators, lost very few House seats, and kept/added state legislatures, while Trump has gone 1/2 in the EC and 0/2 in the PV.

The election was stolen from us because Trump acted like a fricking jackass. This should have been a Republican MANDATE. All he had to do was shut up and not badly underperform down-ballot R's, nation-wide. He couldn't even do that. This is on him. He can go frick himself.
