Ok, but it turns out there were questionable election antics, it just had to do with the Republican fraudulent elector plots that have already started seeing guilty pleas.

All fifty state elections were clean and there is no evidence of fraud. Elections just happen to be the only American institution that are miraculously without a thumb on the scale. Amazing!

If the system can't be fully audited it cannot be trusted. Between mass mail in votes and electronic machines, integrity of the election is gone. This is why other countries will only use in person voting on election day. With mass mail in voting you've just added postal clerks and post offices as additional risk areas. The current US system is not auditable and therefore integrity cannot be verified.
The Jan6 people wanted a delay and the election results verified because of the questionable shit that occurred. From bell weather state victories to the midnight pause, and the sudden Biden jump after the election would have been won and declared in any other year.

Sorry, I recognize you might have missed this, but evidence did in fact later emerge that there were serious attempts of fraud around the elections. It didn't get a whole lot of attention, but there's at least a bit of it in the public domain now if you're interested. See for your further perusal:
Nevada election fraud prosecution
Georgia election fraud prosecution
Michigan election fraud prosecution
Arizona election fraud investigation
Federal election fraud prosecution
So no, you're right- the election was by no means squeaky clean, and serious fraud was attempted, has been or is being investigated, and is being prosecuted in a number of jurisdictions.

Now, I know we've trashed Snopes as fact checkers before, mostly for their far leftist opinions. However, if they are sticking up for Trump, instead of the normal hatchet jobs, I think we can assume they are probably right. A quick perusal of other hits, confirms the findings of Snopes.
"In sum, the claim stemmed from a story by The Atlantic, which relied on anonymous, second-hand reports of Trump's alleged words; there was no independent footage or documented proof to substantiate the in-question comments; and Trump vehemently denies that he once called service members "losers" and "suckers." While it was certainly possible that he said those things, Snopes was unable to independently verify the claim."

Did Trump Call Fallen Soldiers 'Suckers' and 'Losers'?
A former Trump administration official and Biden recently accused the former president of making the statement.

Perhaps we can put this to rest and quit perpetuating rumour and whisper campaigns?

Yeah, that’s not correct.
My spouse worked at Elections Canada with…you guessed it…international voting by mail.
Postal voting - Wikipedia
Ya know what? Those are some mighty good points that you made, and fair enough! I'm inclined to agree - especially that last line.
Trump has typically been pretty pro police tho, and has often praised his Secret Service detail as well as other LEO's - and just recently I believe was endorsed by a law enforcement association in Michigan...
It seems like he has more LEO support than Biden? But thats just how it seems to someone outside of America looking in

A canard. Our mail in voting is highly vetted and not something to be wholly worried about. The mail in ballots down stateside is anyone wanting a mail in ballot, which results in a full neighbourhood of Frank and Francine Smiths. All posted by one person with a shoehorn to get them into a drop box. Plus ballot harvesting by one person going into an old age homes and the like, and signing everyone up. Our system cannot be equated to theirs.Yeah, that’s not correct.

But that’s not what I was responding to.
All I was responding to was QV’s assertion that no country other than the US does mail in voting. I said nothing about how good or bad the system is in each country.
But, since you brought it up…
How are mail-in and absentee ballots verified?
Whether a state requires voters to request an absentee ballot or participates in universal mail-in voting, all ballots cast by mail or dropped off at a drop box are vetted to ensure their legitimacy.

I believe that last line should be "and the horse he rode in on" but that's ok. I have nothing against his horse.
