Some of Donald Trump's allied groups have been struggling with their finances since the former president's theories about the last election has been debunked.

Another problem that doomed some of the groups was their failure to secure any fundraising help from Trump, the de facto leader of the Republican Party, who remains the chief promoter of false claims of widespread voter fraud in the United States.

    The people claiming fraud have no idea how vote by mail works.

    Each ballot has a voter signature.

    The signature is matched to the voter registration.

    So the argument that millions of Chinese ballots printed on bamboo? Bullshit. They would have to match the signatures of millions of voters. That did not happen.

    If duplicate ballots are returned, that’s detected and flagged. The voter gets notified there’s a problem. Again, did not happen.

    The 2,000 Mules nonsense? It’s totally allowed for one person to drop off multiple ballots. Why? Again, because of signature verification. Dropping off multiple ballots proves nothing.

    When it comes to conservatives there are 2 groups. The Liars and the Rubes who believe the liars. I’m always astonished to realize that people who I thought were Liars were actually Rubes. The Rubes blew millions of $ because they believed the Liars.

    A fool and his money are easily parted.

    Plenty of lawyers salivating at the thought of burning though billable hours on the dime of these fools.
