“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.” That old proverb echoes through America’s political halls since 2016. Hillary Clinton, once assured of victory, was publicly scorned by a populist uprising. Her response wasn’t self-reflection—it was accusation. She claimed Donald Trump had stolen the election through collusion, becoming the fountainhead of what would soon metastasize into Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Ironically, many of the same leftist media outlets and Democrat partisans who now ridicule conservatives for questioning the integrity of the 2020 election were once loud champions of Clinton’s baseless RussiaGate conspiracy. What followed in 2020 was not just political passion—it was an orchestrated, multi-layered interference campaign that weaponized media, technology, bureaucracy, and activism to control the outcome of an election. The goal? Make sure another Trump never rises.
The Broad Coalition Against Trump
The 2020 election wasn’t simply a contest between two candidates—it was a clash between a populist outsider and an entrenched ruling class that includes legacy media, big tech oligarchs, activist elites, partisan judges, compromised election boards, and politicized non-profits. This “fortified” election, as Time Magazine ironically admitted, represented an extraordinary alliance aimed not at transparency but at narrative control.
Let’s examine the pillars of this operation.
The National Media Propaganda Machine
News networks such as CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and wire services like the Associated Press fed the nation a steady diet of curated deception.
- Charlottesville Smear: Trump’s condemnation of both sides in Charlottesville was surgically edited and weaponized to portray him as a white supremacist sympathizer—despite him clearly stating that neo-Nazis “should be condemned totally.”
- RussiaGate Hoax: Years of breathless coverage over a Clinton-fabricated narrative of Russian collusion, ultimately debunked, served one purpose: discredit Trump’s 2016 win and poison his reelection.
- Hunter Biden Blackout: Just weeks before the 2020 election, newsrooms buried the Hunter Biden laptop story. Twitter suspended the New York Post for reporting it. The FBI knew it was real. The media called it “Russian disinformation.” Polling later showed that had voters known, it could have changed the election outcome.
- Riots Rebranded: As Democrat-controlled cities burned in 2020, the media branded the chaos “mostly peaceful protests.” CNN even aired that absurd phrase over footage of a flaming building.
The media didn’t just report the news—they chose winners and losers.
Big Tech and the New Ministry of Truth
Major tech companies—Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Google—exercised unprecedented censorship:
- “Fact Checkers” routinely silenced dissenting voices, labeling truthful statements as “misinformation” if they conflicted with leftist narratives.
- Twitter banned the sitting president of the United States while allowing Iranian leaders and Chinese Communist officials to remain.
- YouTube deleted videos critical of mail-in voting procedures, COVID-19 lockdowns, and vaccine mandates—even when based on expert testimony.
The result? A rigged digital landscape where only progressive voices could flourish.
Zuckerbucks and the Hijacking of Election Administration
One of the most disturbing elements of the 2020 election was the private funding of election offices in swing states by Mark Zuckerberg, funneled through the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL).
- Over $425 million was directed not toward neutral election enhancement but disproportionately to Democrat-heavy counties in states like Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.
- CTCL grants embedded left-wing operatives into local election offices, influencing everything from vote outreach to ballot processing.
Even left-of-center critics have acknowledged the deep ethical problems involved in privately funding public election infrastructure.
The George Soros Factor and the Legal Battlefield
Open Society Foundation, founded by billionaire George Soros, invested heavily in electing local prosecutors and attorneys general who openly rejected enforcing the law impartially.
- Many Soros-funded DAs, such as those in San Francisco, St. Louis, and Philadelphia, refused to prosecute rioters while aggressively pursuing law-abiding citizens like Mark and Patricia McCloskey, who simply defended their property.
- Marc Elias, the Democrat Party’s legal mastermind, used COVID-19 as a pretext to push emergency legal changes to voting: mail-in ballots without signature checks, drop boxes with little oversight, extended deadlines, and even ballot harvesting.
These weren’t minor tweaks—they were systemic changes made without legislative authority and in violation of the Constitution’s Elections Clause.
Nursing Homes, Unsigned Ballots, and Procedural Chaos
Eyewitnesses, affidavits, and investigative reports have documented:
- Ballots accepted without signatures, postmarks, or proper chain-of-custody.
- Nursing home residents with dementia voting in record numbers—some allegedly coerced or impersonated.
- Election workers in key cities being expelled from vote-counting rooms, notably in Detroit and Philadelphia, often with windows blocked from view.
Were these isolated irregularities? Or parts of a coordinated effort to blur the line between legal and illegal ballots? At the very least, these incidents should have sparked bipartisan investigations. Instead, they were ridiculed and dismissed outright.
The Psy-Op: Time Magazine’s “Secret Shadow Campaign”
Shockingly, leftists themselves bragged about their activities:
- In its February 2021 article, Time Magazine titled “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election,” a coalition of left-leaning operatives openly discussed how they “fortified” the election by manipulating public perception, coordinating media coverage, and steering online narratives.
They called it “saving democracy.” But controlling news flow, suppressing opposition speech, and rewriting election laws sounds more like electioneering from an autocracy.
Street-Level Intimidation and the Summer of Rage
2020 wasn’t just an election year—it was a year of chaos:
- In cities like Portland, Seattle, and Kenosha, anarchists and Black Lives Matter activists rioted for weeks.
- Democrat mayors often refused federal assistance, allowing Antifa to turn downtown blocks into autonomous zones.
- President Trump, in fulfilling his duty to protect federal property, was called a “fascist” by the press.
- Activists stormed polling places and intimidated voters under the guise of “protecting democracy.”
Where was the outrage from the ACLU? Where was the media calling for election integrity and safety? Missing in action—unless a Republican sneezed the wrong way.
The Hypocrisy on Voter ID and Election Law
To this day, Democrats oppose basic election security measures such as:
- Voter ID laws, calling them “Jim Crow 2.0”
- Cleaning up voter rolls
- Requiring in-person voting with strict procedures
Yet, you can’t rent a car or enter the DNC convention without an ID. This hypocrisy reveals the true motive: not inclusion, but exploitation of weak systems.
Who to Follow in the Fight for Integrity
Follow bold, Constitution-respecting conservatives who continue to raise the alarm:
- Senators: John N. Kennedy, Mike Lee, Josh Hawley, Tom Cotton, James Lankford, John N. Kennedy, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz
- Representatives: Jim Jordan, Byron Donalds, Mike Johnson, Brandon Gill
- News Outlets: New York Post, Wall Street Journal, the Federalist, the Epoch Times, Fox News Channel, Newsmax, Daily Wire, The Blaze, The Washington Times, Breitbart News, The Daily Caller
A Christian Perspective: God Laughs Last
Psalm 2 reminds believers that while “the kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord,” God “sits in the heavens and laughs.” The ultimate authority does not rest in D.C., Davos, or Silicon Valley. It rests in heaven.
In the end, no manipulation, fraud, or deception will ever thwart His purposes. This is true whether righteous rulers occupy the seat of authority or not. God’s will is never thwarted.
Conclusion: Don’t Be Gaslighted—Seek the Truth
The 2020 election was interfered with—not through overt hacking—but through narrative engineering, censorship, legal manipulation, and private influence operations. These were not theories—they were brags, admissions, and financial records made public.
In my opinion, Trump made a strategic mistake in following the advice of others in regards to the source of the election interference, such as pursuing the Dominion voting machine manipulation angle. He should have been more focused on the aforementioned facts and not the theories of others, like the Dominion voting machine angle. However, there was little time to address the matter in a more thoughtful manner.
If you question the election’s integrity, you’re not crazy. You’re awake.
