The Election Is Rigged, But Not as Trump Would Have Us Believe

Helpful advise, pre-Armageddon
This article is an educational primer on all the issues that may very well come into play in the aftermath of the election when Trump, or Hillary’s people for that matter, decide to not accept the election results. Keep in mind that this does not need to involve explicit direction given by either losing candidate. In fact, expect the ‘fog of war’ to descend on day one, but that is my opinion, not within the purview of this article. Mr Richman provides much-needed-to-be-said reality about Mr Trump’s circumstance and also reminds us (before we start a war), about the reasons we stay in line or deviate from civil norms. This is a fairly straightforward explanation, a baseline that should be considered before following one’s passion into the unknown. Clearly there is a time when that becomes necessary, but understanding is always better than mindless reaction.
