A Democratic senate candidate in Texas - the Gold Curse continues.
BTW, Trump's been having weird rants for some time now - no one seems to really care.
Trump has spoken for ten years about fraudulent elections. He usually speaks quite openly about what's on his mind.
He never speaks of the importance of fair elections. Instead, he tries to overturn them (see: January 6, 2020).
Therefore, I expect that the Gold Curse you speak of will be his secret cheating behind the scenes. Otherwise, Talarico runs.
He's done wonders to ensure confidence of the American public!
