    Could the lemmings be referring to the old trope where some loudmouth (usually a conservative) bangs on about an issue with some minority group ad nauseum and then some time later it turns out they were actually a perpetrator of the thing they banged on about, ie every accusation is an admission of guilt?

      In this case, no - comments in these usually directly infer that he’s saying that the rigged election was his team. There’s no mistaking it. They aren’t pointing at the “every accusation is a confession” bit that conservatives usually do, but many of them have commented things like “this is a direct confession, jail him now!” sadly, unironically.

      While I agree the 2024 election definitely had fraud, and they’re further attempting to now outright rig the midterms, the particular video I’m referring to wasn’t the direct confession that some of these morons think it is.

      And the problem also resides in the fact that this is only a single example…of many…
