"This could be our last election" is something I've been hearing since Republicans were freaking out of Clinton in 1996. We do it literally every four years, depending on who is coming and going.

Trump's deplorable were going to dominate the country after '16. Obama's ACORN was going to take over the election system if he won in 2010. Bush was going to send all the Democrats to Gitmo back in 2006. The SCOTUS guaranteed a Democrat would never win again, after 2000.

His children admitted to meeting with Russian intelligence officials in Trump Tower to discuss undermining the 2016 election.

I am so tired of hearing how Russia stole the '16 election, when you had governors in Florida and Texas and New York and Ohio and Georgia and Arizona and Wisconsin and Colorado dumping people off the voter rolls as fast as they could find an excuse. If you want to talk about stolen elections, go look up Operation Eagle Eye) which guaranteed Arizona's growing Hispanic community would be denied a seat at the table for decades thanks to future Supreme Court Justice William Rehnquist.

Or ask what happened to Don Siegelman, the last Democrat to serve as governor in Alabama.

Or just look up the Brooks Brother's Riot

Pinning this shit on The Evil Foreigner when we're perfectly willing and capable of stealing elections right here at home is asinine.
