with polling and moving on to “other ventures.”

Trump shared the announcement and accused Selzer of “possible ELECTION ******,” adding: “An investigation is fully called for!”

Trump has long pushed disproven and discredited claims of ****** over the 2020 election, which he lost. This may be the first time he is claiming ****** in an election where he actually won.

Critics on social media warned that with the Justice Department at his disposal, Trump will soon have the power to make investigations such as this actually happen:

This is crazy but he’s actually going to do 90% of this *****. He’s unhinged.

Nobody likes a sore winner. Donald Trump is calling for an investigation into pollster Ann Selzer after she released a bombshell Iowa poll just days before the presidential election that showed Democratic nominee Kamala Harris up in the state by three points.

Investigating people for polls you don’t like doesn’t seem particularly free speechy.

This is actually insane. Like, even more insane than Trump’s usual insanity. He’s talking about using the government to punish anyone who reports any information he doesn’t like. See also Viktor Orbán’s Hungary.

These kind of threats will have a chilling effect on free speech. Defending against an investigation like this can financially ruin someone.

He can’t be content with proving that the poll was wrong. He has to seek revenge. This is what you voted for, Republicans.

He is going to make an example of her for any woman who holds power. Power to make him look bad, like a ******. Any woman he views as having a greater influence than him. He views women as weak and easy to bully and push around. She didn’t do anything wrong and in fact was probably right.

A Trump 2.0 regime will be at least as bad as some of us think, and probably worse than most do.
