The first red flag is that Trump won Ohio and Florida, but somehow lost the election. That hasn't happened since 1960. Here I will note that fewer than 100,000 votes out of 69 million cast decided the outcome of that election. That's a margin of 0.14%. So already we're in blizzard-in-Texas-in-July levels of improbability. Check this out: Biden supposedly won Pennsylvania and Michigan by a margin of about 100,000 votes. Those were two of the three states that propelled Trump to victory in 2016.
Turning once more to Wikipedia, which is often more reliable than its critics allege, I find that in 2016:
***
the election hinged not on Clinton's large 2.8 million overall vote margin over Trump, but rather on about 78,000 votes from only three counties in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.
***
I assure you Team Blue election strategists made note of this and spent the next four years devising countermeasures. Hint: each of those states have a big city that leans Democrat. Back to 2020:
***
The election saw the highest voter turnout by percentage since 1900, with each of the two main tickets receiving more than 74 million votes, surpassing Barack Obama's record of 69.5 million votes from 2008. Biden received more than 81 million votes...
***
Those stats are the next two red flags. Really? Biden more popular than Obama? Biden, he of two failed presidential campaigns? The same Biden who lost the first two primaries?
***
Biden became the first Democratic candidate since Bill Clinton, and the third ever Democratic candidate, to win the nomination without carrying either Iowa or New Hampshire, the first two states on the primary/caucus calendar.
***
***
Biden also became the first Democrat to win a presidential election in Georgia since 1992, in Arizona since 1996, and in Nebraska's 2nd congressional district since 2008.
***
And there's the 2020 postal vote tally:
***
A record number of voters, in excess of 65.6 million, cast postal votes.
***
Red flag #6. In person voting is the only way to verify that the name on the ballot is the same as the person who actually cast it. Dead people vote in every election, and it's even easier for them to vote by mail. For this reason and others, most countries do not allow postal voting and most of the rest only allow it in certain cases. Here's map:
***
Although Trump had won the state in 2016 by a narrow margin of 0.72%, Biden was able to reclaim the state, winning it by a similarly narrow 1.17% margin. Because of the way the state counted in-person ballots first, Trump started with a wide lead on election night. However, over the next few days, Biden greatly closed the margin due to outstanding votes from Democratic-leaning areas, most notably Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, as well as mail-in ballots from all parts of the state which strongly favored him.
***
OK, we know have enough red flags for a May Day parade. But maybe you're still not convinced.

Democrats return nearly three times as many mail-in ballots as Republicans in Pennsylvania

None of these things by themselves prove fraud, but it looks mighty suspicious to me.
