Remember the days just before November 8, when Donald Trump was behind in all the polls? Remember when he kept peppering his speeches with talk of "rigged elections" and "voter fraud?" Remember when we thought he's going to lose, and he's going to lose poorly, and he's going to undermine his followers' faith in our democracy and do irreparable damage to our country on his way back to the golf course?

Well, he won. And he won poorly. And today, at the end of a long holiday weekend, he got on Twitter to undermine his followers' faith in our democracy and do irreparable damage to our country on his way to the White House.

In addition to winning the Electoral College in a landslide, I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 27, 2016

Please note: there is no evidence of tens of people voting illegally, much less millions. There is no rational argument that the imaginary illegal vote count would favor Hillary Clinton. (In fact, the one American who has been charged with voting twice voted for Donald Trump.) There is just the accusation, probably tweeted out from atop a gold-plated toilet in a gold-painted tower surrounded by dump trucks full of sand. And now, for untold millions of Trump supporters, it is the truth.

Oh, but he went on:

states instead of the 15 states that I visited. I would have won even more easily and convincingly (but smaller states are forgotten)! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 27, 2016

Got it? He won, but he would have won more bigly if not for those illegal voters who don't exist, and even if the score had been tallied a different way, he still would have won because he would have played the game differently, which would have been sad (Sad!) because that way he wouldn't have had the chance to visit New Hampshire. Which also had voter fraud.

Serious voter fraud in Virginia, New Hampshire and California - so why isn't the media reporting on this? Serious bias - big problem! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 28, 2016

Ugh.

If there is one grownup within one square mile of the President-Elect of the United States of America, we could really use your help.
