    Y’all are missing the point of what they’re doing here. They’re ramping up the FUD now in order to erode public trust in preparation for claiming fraud and declaring Trump the winner in November regardless of what the actual votes are. Even if that fails, they would still succeed in punting the issue to the court system, where the corrupt SCOTUS will rule in Trump’s favor. It’ll be like Bush v.

This isn’t a “hurr durr look at the delusional Republicans trying to lose again” thing; this is a credible threat. Non-traitors need to be organizing and developing countermeasures against it, not just putting our faith in the integrity of a vote that they are telegraphing their intent to subvert.
