When Keystone Kash's FBI raided the Georgia election office, they not only took all the ballots and equipment, they also took the back-up images of the ballots.
Taking the back-up images means that they can tamper with the ballots without anyone being able to prove they did it.

If I was to find one positive in Trump, it was that he has succeeded in creating a European identity.

Whatever comes out of Trumps mouth (or his social feed), do not believe it.
No matter what face saving deal he agrees now, his desire to expand the USA remains.
And I guarantee at some point he will state that Greenland is his.
