Trump won by 255K votes in the 3 states that decided the election. A swing of 128K votes in those states and Harris is POTUS.

Estimates have him winning under 50% of the popular vote.

MAGA lost Senate races in WI, MI, NV, and AZ. It may lose the House.

Hard to see a landslide. The margin of victory Trump will end up with, 1.5%, is the smallest margin any incumbent party in the developed world has lost by post-pandemic, and in case you did not know, this is the first year since World War II in which every incumbent party has lost in the developed world.

(🧵) The 2024 U.S. presidential election was *not* stolen: a THREAD.

RETWEET for anyone in your life going down this road. Image 1/ Some notes to start:

1⃣ I’m as devastated by this loss as anyone—for more reasons than I can say or readers will know. Please understand, I feel the same pain as you.
2⃣ If contrary hard evidence emerges, I will say so.
3⃣ I worked on post-vote stolen-election claims in 2004.

(📢) PROOF EXCLUSIVE: Proof of Consequences, Vol. 1: Where America Goes Now

🔗:

This one is nearly book-length, but it’s a barnburner. It’s FREE with a one-week trial of PROOF, a Top 25 U.S. Politics substack.

Please RETWEET this so everyone can see it. sethabramson.substack.com/p/proof-of-con…Image 1/ A lot of people are asking me whether the lengthy report above—like I said, it is probably nearly book-length (and surely novella-length)—will address the allegations now floating around social media that the 2024 presidential election was stolen.

Just a quick note here in advance of Trump and Musk crashing the economy in 2025: Trump voters are going to blame Democrats for that too.

Read up on fascism and cults and stop assuming we have a rational electorate that’s actually looking at economic indicators. It simply isn’t. If anyone is looking ahead to 2025 and thinking that when Donald Trump breaks things, kills people, ends alliances and treaties, and endangers all of us he’ll be blamed for it, think again. You can’t *imagine* the degree of pain he’ll need to cause people before they turn on him.

(🧵) ELECTION THREAD: I’ve been waiting all night to say anything substantive about what’s happened, as I felt—I still do—that I might say something I’d regret.

I hope you’ll consider following along as I try to process this with you all, and try to do it responsibly. Please RT. Image 1/ The New York Times gives Trump more a 90% chance of winning the election. Barring a miracle—and none is on the horizon at present—he will win.

And if by some miracle Harris won, it would be such a shock that it would almost certainly cause widespread Trumpist violence anyway.

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump and MAGA's Kremlin Allies Planning Terrorist Attacks Inside the United States; Trump and MAGA's Support for Putin and Russia Remains Unaffected By Prospect of September 11th-Style Attacks Committed By Their America-Hating Political Partners Image MORE/ Retweet this widely so that all Americans can understand that the Kremlin and Trump have exactly the same political agenda—to stoke not just figurative but actual chaos and mayhem across the United States. MAGA is an anti-American political movement. wsj.com/world/russia-p…

This is... maybe the most horrifying political ad I have ever seen.

Partly because of the content, partly because it's a reasonable portrayal of the world we are in and will be heading deeper into if we men don't vote in massive numbers for Kamala Harris. I hesitated to post this, because it is so deeply upsetting.

But then I asked myself a simple question: is it accurate? Are women dying because of the decisions of Republican congressmen? And the answer is yes.

The answer is yes.

And *men* need to help put a stop to this evil.

(🧵) I don’t pretend to be an expert on women voters. I can only say what I see them saying on my social media feeds (1.2M+ followers): they don’t like that he’s a serial adulterer, serial sexual predator, and adjudicated rapist who wants to control their bodies and healthcare. Image (🧵) They don’t like that he serially sexually harassed women on TV. They don’t like that he repeatedly cheated on Melania—Steve Bannon says with at least 100 women, including while Melania was pregnant—and hasn’t been faithful to any woman he’s been with. theweek.com/donald-trump/6…

Number of people present at an execution by firing squad in the United States: 9

Number of rifles Trump said he wants pointed at critic Liz Cheney: 9

Number of times Trump has publicly/privately spoken of executing critics: 20+

He knew what he was doing ny1.com/nyc/all-boroug… You do not have to be any sort of partisan to know that a presidential candidate in the United States who regularly speaks of murdering his critics has no place in the Oval Office

It has nothing to do with policies, it has to do with not being a *manifestly horrible human being*

(🚨) The BREAKING NEWS from THE DAILY BEAST is that Trump and Jeffrey Epstein never stopped being friends—and Epstein had damaging Trump photos.

It appears PROOF OF CRUELTY will be the only pre-election Trump and Epstein book, so RETWEET accordingly.

🔗: sethabramson.substack.com/p/proof-of-cru…Image 1/ To recap, here is what we learned in the last 24 hours (though some of this was previously reported by me in 2019).

It is useful to see how childish Trumpism is—and Hewitt is merely a Trump booster, not a journalist. In fact, Musk has been violating state law in Pennsylvania, Trump has amplified many false claims about Pennsylvania, and no court has ever said Trump was right about voter fraud. The legal community—on both sides of the political spectrum—is absolutely baffled by what the Supreme Court did in Virginia, which is without any precedent in contemporary American legal or political history.

A much bigger story than the one Hewitt mentions about Pennsylvania...

If major media somehow manages to get a tick-tock for then-president Donald Trump from the second half of December 2017, they will discover that he made a trip to the Florida home of Jeffrey Epstein. They will also find that Jeffrey Epstein was managing money for MBS at the time. Do not accuse me of introducing new info.

I wrote 200+ tweets on this subject to an audience of hundreds of thousands or millions on Twitter in August 2019 and passed all this info to major media, who promptly did nothing with it.

It comes from the lips of an aide to Epstein.

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: Trump White House Personnel Director, Linked to Project 2025 and Slated for a Huge Role If Trump Is Elected, Echoes Increasingly Loud Calls From the Trumpist Evangelicals He Works With to—This Is Real—*End Voting Rights for Women* Anyone who thinks this is a joke—not a wink to all those McEntee works with—isn't following politics. There's a very real, growing, vocal, influential community of religious men inside MAGA saying Americans should vote by family, with the male head-of-household deciding the vote.

Aaaannnd... there it is. Just got to the part of the MSG neo-Nazi rally where they compare the Vice President of the United States to a hooker.

This rally is likely the ugliest political event held in America this century.

Yes, this is a man giving the middle finger at a rally. Image Such hatred.

He has been railing about “SCUMBAG JUDGES.” Image

(🧵) THREAD: When Trump makes a provably false claim he’s been corrected on before—and does so thousands of times—there are 3 possibilities: he has a mental illness; he’s too stupid to learn; he thinks MAGAs are stupid.

None are OK in a POTUS.

Look at the Rogan-Trump interview. Image 1/ Trump said no past POTUS had put “10 cents” of tariffs on Chinese goods.

When he took office and asked about tariffs on China, he was told they began in 1798 and we’ve put *billions* in tariffs on Chinese goods. Either he forgot, lives in a fantasy, or doesn’t respect voters.

This is a *real image*.

He looks like an Oompa Loompa.

Explain to me what anyone obsessed with masculinity sees in this clown. The bronzer is slathered on, he’s wearing an adult diaper, he has a bizarre hair confection on his head, he’s obese... where’s the “alpha” in all this? Image There’s nothing hyper-masculine about a man who pays for sex, r*pes minors, and has to attack women in public—dozens of times—to get physical contact with a woman.

There’s nothing hyper-masculine about a man who wants to sleep with his daughter and whose wife will not touch him.

[🚨]

(1 of 3) House members are calling for an investigation of Netanyahu family friend Jared Kushner, who allegedly is acting as a go-between between Israel and Saudi Arabia (MBS).

The US has promised to aid Saudi Arabia if Iran strikes it in retaliation for an Israeli attack. [🚨]

(2 of 3) Meanwhile, Donald Trump— father-in-law of Jared Kushner—is regularly speaking with Netanyahu about US foreign policy in Israel contrary to the proscriptions of the federal Logan Act.

Trump is pushing for Israel to be as aggressive as possible, including with Iran.

So CNN proudly announces its final national poll of the 2024 election shows a *tie*—adding excitedly that Trump has *never* been behind in its polling this election cycle, as if to imply it wanted it to *stay* that way.

Then it put up the internals.

Someone please explain this. Image I guess what I’m asking is, did CNN actually over-sample Republicans by *so much* that Harris is +4 among independents, getting a higher share of Democrats than Trump is of Republicans, and losing fewer of her party's voters to Trump than he is to her, and CNN *still* sees a tie?

If you are a journalist, this moment in U.S. history is WHY YOU GOT INTO JOURNALISM.

For the Washington Post to bend the knee to fascism and REFUSE to oppose Trump removes it from the journalistic space.

It has abandoned America when America needed it, and I will NEVER forget. 1/ Just came back to this and saw how many MAGAs think they know more about journalism than a longtime journalism professor.

Journalists must be *neutral*, they shout! (Nope—*objective*.)

All journalism must be reporting! (Nope—reportage is one of *36* subgenres of journalism.)
