As election day approaches and neo-fascist demagogue Donald "Rump" Trump lags behind, expect more of the "rigged" talk. His fragile psyche can't face being seen as a "loser," so he and his cultish followers will adopt the conspiracy theory that the election (which is under the jurisdiction of State and local governments) was rigged to thwart him. Sadly, the Trumpists will rage on in the years to come under the false illusion that they're in the majority. Expect violence and acting out (e.g., Oregon's Malheur wildlife preserve takeover) to follow.
