There’s nothing new about MAHA’s propaganda tactics.

Not saying it’ll happen, only that it’d really be something if the continued 2024 ballot-counting led to Trump finishing at 49.49% and Harris at 48.51%—arguably, a 49%-49% tie.
Trump would almost certainly spin out online.
Right now he leads by just 1.58% in one of the closest U.S. elections ever.
