Trump Is Not the Threat to Democracy, Voter Fraud Is

If there was one country on the planet that should make sure all its elections are safe and guaranteed accurate, it's the United States of America. I would say, as the most powerful country in the world, it has a responsibility to make its elections true, not just to its own citizens, but on the fact that should the power of the United States fall into the wrong hands it could wreck devastation and untold hardship on the world. 

But let's face facts. Despite all the Democrats proclaiming that our elections are foolproof, they just aren't. As election season has been ramping up, story after story has come out showing you that, not only do our voting methods invite a lot of risk of fraud, but that Democrat politicians seem to be more than happy to pave the way for fraud to happen.

Just a few hours ago, Libs of TikTok posted a short video detailing how the University of North Carolina at Greensboro sent out an email stating that students can use their university ID to vote, but it was confirmed that non-citizens can get these IDs as well. As Libs of TikTok notes, North Carolina voter registration laws do NOT require proof of citizenship to register, opening up massive potential for fraud. 

In Arizona, it was reported that it would take up to two weeks to count all the ballots. X user Indian_Bronson noted that India counts 640 million votes in a single day. So why can't a single state? 

I think we all know the answer to that question, and there's no way around it, they plan to somehow muddy the process. 

It doesn't have to be this way. It can be safer, and it's not impossible to do. 

As I was scrolling through my X feed, a video popped up that came out of Taiwan. A reporter was sitting outside a polling location in New Taipei. You could see inside the room as people counted ballots and tallied them. As they did, the woman explained that the interesting thing about elections in Taiwan is that there is "no absentee voting," and everything is done in person. 

"It's fair, it's safe, and it does protect Taiwan from any sort of interference from China or other players out there," the woman said. 

"It is an old school way, and maybe not as efficient as some other economies out there, but certainly it's a way that has worked election after election," the woman continued.  

It's true that America is a massive place and that states have different laws concerning voting, but I would ask the Democrats who seem unconcerned about voter fraud in their states if they're actually participating in a democratic system at all. They always say they're so concerned about Democracy being destroyed that they aren't stopping to consider that voter fraud is one of the ultimate ways Democracy is completely taken out of the equation. In this case, you're under the rule of whoever is rigging the votes. 

They keep telling us the threat to Democracy is Trump. That's not true. It is whoever is trying to rig the system. 

Voting should be simple, and if all the voting machines and electronics make it complicated and dangerous, then we don't need them. I would much rather have to go up and chisel my vote into a rock if it means my vote is counted accurately and in line with a system where election integrity is a priority. 

Because if we don't have safe elections, we don't have a country, we have a dictatorship.
