PREVENTING ELECTION FRAUD is hugely important to Republicans despite it’s being of no consequence, as it is vanishingly rare.*
But!
When laws are broken on behalf of Trump . . . even when it results in death and global condemnation . . . well, that’s different. Witness the pardoned January 6 felons.
Or, Tuesday night, one of Trump’s final “truths” of 2025, as reported by FOX’s Denver affiliate:
President Donald Trump is ending 2025 wishing “only the worst” for leaders in Colorado in response to the imprisonment of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who is behind bars after being convicted for her role in a 2021 election security breach.
In a post on Truth Social on Wednesday, the president called the democratic Governor Jared Polis a “scumbag” and the republican District Attorney Daniel Rubenstein “disgusting” for not making efforts to release Peters.
“May they rot in hell” Trump concluded in the spirit of the holidays.
For the indicted war criminal Putin, by contrast, who helped elect him, he had nary a bad word all year. —Andrew Tobias
