Just seeing this headline made me relax & sigh: The End of Trump’s Reign of Tweet Terror Is Near The president’s magic social media wand will soon be powerless. By Kara Swisher https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/17/opinion/trump-tweets-election.html
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Tuesday that President Donald Trump would have been victorious in Georgia’s election had he not discouraged people from participating in mail-in voting.
During the campaign, Trump claimed that mail-in voting would lead to widespread election fraud on the part of Democrats. Instead, Trump told people to show up at polling places on election day to cast their votes in person.
Georgia’s electoral process has come under scrutiny after an audit of the ballot revealed two ballots in two counties that were not originally counted. The margin between Trump and President-elect Joe Biden remained thin on Tuesday with Biden leading Trump in the popular vote by over 12,000 ballots.
In an interview with WSB, Raffensperger said there were 24,000 Republicans in Georgia who voted in the June primaries, but “did not vote in the fall either.”
“They did not vote absentee because they were told by the president don’t go to absentee, it’s not secure,” Raffensperger said. “But then they did not come out and vote in person.”
“He would have won by 10,000 votes,” Raffensperger said. “He actually depressed, suppressed his own voting base.”
Because G̵O̵P̵’̵e̵r̵s̵ Gohmert will apparently believe anything….

An article (here), called “INTEL: US Military Raided Scytl Servers in Germany For Evidence After Vote Switching Scandal”, was published by GreatGameIndia, and shared on social media here , here and here .
The article claims, “According to intelligence sources US Military raided voting machine company Scytl servers in Germany for evidence of manipulation in 2020 US Elections […] The votes cast by Americans in 2020 US election were counted by a bankrupt Spanish company Scytl in Spain.”
As supposed proof, the article references comments made without supporting evidence by Representative of Texas first congressional district Louie Gohmert’s on Newsmax (here), and also allegedly on a video call shared widely on social media (here , youtu.be/GbgZzA_mSpE , here).
Gohmert said, “I was told there was a tweet in German from Germany that the U.S. anocrat” from the information that Scytl gathered. Gohmert prefaced the claims about the raid with, “I don’t know the truth. I know there was a German tweet in German”.
The Election Infrastructure Government Coordinating Council Executive Committee and the Election Infrastructure Sector Coordinating Council said in a statement that election security officials have no evidence that ballots were changed, deleted or lost by voting systems in the Nov. 3 U.S. elections, and that this election “was the most secure in American history.“
Republican President Donald Trump has repeatedly made unsubstantiated claims of electoral fraud (here).

Having lost his re-election bid, President Donald Trump has been busy hiding out, not taking questions from reporters, spreading lies about election fraud on Twitter, and firing key federal positions and restaffing them with loyalists.
The firing and restaffing have been helped along by Johnny McEntee, Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office, a 30-year-old former football player who was denied security clearance back in March 2018 because of his gambling addiction and alleged financial crimes.
He became Trump’s Director of the Office of Presidential Personnel in February 2020, and has worked as Trump’s hatchet man ever since, firing people deemed insufficiently loyal to the president, including Trump’s “defense secretary and other top Pentagon aides, his second-in-command at the U.S. Agency for International Development, two top Homeland Security officials, a senior climate scientist and the leader of the agency that safeguards nuclear weapons,” according to The Washington Post.
What made McEntee so qualified for the position, you ask? “According to a tell-all book by Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former aide to the first lady, ” the Post reports, “McEntee happened to be delivering a turkey sandwich when Winston Wolkoff informed Trump that his inaugural committee was a “s— show.”
“Donald grabbed the [sandwich] bag and told the kid to sit down. ‘You’re in charge of the inauguration now,’ he said.”
McEntee has since conducted heavy-handed loyalty tests, asking people in completely unrelated agencies their opinions of the president’s various policies, where they get their news, and who seems unsupportive of Trump in general…. all because he happened to deliver a turkey sandwich to the president at the right time.
