#STOPTHESTEAL refers to stealing their culture as much as the election.

State Senator Bob Steinberg gives us insight into exactly how crazy the right has become. In an interview with WRAL, he told reporter Travis Fain that he believes in a broad, international conspiracy to steal the election from Donald Trump. He can offer no evidence of the scheme, but he’s so sure it occurred, that he believes the President should throw out constitutional protections to round up the plotters.
The interview is telling. Like most of the Trump-supporting, delusional right-wingers calling the election rigged, Steinberg lacks much self-awareness. “I’m not a conspiracy theory person. I don’t like them. I don’t like conspiracy theories at all. But something is going on here that’s bigger than meets the eye,” he says as he spouts baseless conspiracy theories without any evidence.
