They're intentionally saying this to cast doubt and challenge the election results, no matter how badly they lose.

If we can't get some of them to turn their conspiracy theory around and establish faith in our fair election process, then we're going to be dealing with this forever and ever.

Bush v. Gore was the end of democracy for us it turns out. That set a precedent we're not able to recover from today.

Agreed, but the reason this is done to him from my understanding is that he does this sort of ad hominem attack on others and is a bully, generally, so why shouldn't people point out his superficial flaws as well? Especially when he continually tries to rewrite history that none of this happened because his ego is so fragile?

If he was a standup billionaire (heh, oxymoron there), people wouldn't feel like attacking things like this were acceptable.

But because he's a gigantic douchenozzle who regularly bullies people for things exactly like this, including his own family, it's game on.

That's by design since Reagan. They mess it up to prove it doesn't work.

Unfair characterization to not point out it was a republican dominated congress in both houses at the time that did that intentionally.

Of mind. Seriously. Reach out to your buddies you haven't heard from in a few weeks. And don't stop doing that. They'll appreciate it, and so will you.

I invested in an Areon chair and have zero regrets. Best decision I ever made. I work as a software engineer, and also game in my spare time. So sitting around is a lot of what I do unfortunately.

This. This one was a rough lesson to learn.

One thing caused the other.

Worse yet, they're using these donations as a way to avoid paying taxes and get tax breaks.

Do you think the ultra wealthy would ever, ever, EVER part with their money if they didn't expect some sort of return on it or advantage given directly to them?

They would not. The only reason she's doing this, is she's getting a massive tax incentive, and if trump does win, then she'll get another historical tax break for the ultra wealthy that would more than cover that donation 10x over at the cost of the middle class paying even more in taxes.
