[quote]If the Deep State or Biden or who the hell ever controls elections, explain two things: [/quote] Nobody [u]controls[/u] elections. But they have been and will be [u]influenced[/u] when they're close enough for cheating to make a difference....
[quote]It's been the narrative for 4 years.[/quote] The opposite is implied on a regular basis as well. Biden can't get 12 people to show up to see him, therefore he couldn't have even been close to Trump....
