On election night, at 1 am President Trump was way ahead. The betting markets had his implied probability of victory at (80-90%). Than they stopped counting ballots and a couple hours later the numbers got screwed up. Is it that hard to believe that they panicked, stopped counting ballots and started manufacturing ballots to catch up? Perhaps I'm wrong but at the minimum this warrants an impartial investigation. Why is this belief crazy? Are people really trying to suggest we should never challenge or investigate election results? What's to top people from cheating then? I'm being distanced by essentially everyone I know for expressing these beliefs.

Yeah, this is weird. People are just believing whatever the news tells them to. I never realized how many people have checked out of having to think about anything except themselves.
people seemed to have outsourced their thinking to "experts" who at every turn remind plebs that the experts are experts and should be trusted. A massive appeal to authority.
