    1. It's important to understand that Trump's own words support the Atlantic story. The plan is to use engineered election uncertainty to bring in the courts & do Bush v. Gore Redux.https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1308533347245871105 …

        3. Of course, if there is a clearcut electoral college victory in 270+ states, the real nightmare scenario can be avoided. And that's quite possible. But if not this year then in the future there will be close national elections. In that eventuality, the nightmare would happen.

        They just need to follow Bush v. Gore precedent. The arbitrary date matters more than counting votes, so if the date arrives and the outcome is uncertain, whoever states certify as the winner is the winner.

        Exactly this! He’s been actively creating the voter fraud, chaos and confusion he falsely alleges already exists so that he can contest the results in any situation where he loses.

        MI, PA and WI are have Democratic governors who will faithfully execute their State election laws. As long as the margins are not razor thin, there will be nothing to contest. Remember, the governor of Florida in 2000 was Jeb Bush.

        Stealing justices to steal an election. Big difference than 2000, when I think the majority of the people would accept the courts decision.

        And what are the losers going to do about it? If there was ramifications for stealing an election, one of which both sides are claiming is going to happen, perhaps they wouldn't go through with it? Trump is telling his base straight up they're stealing it with mail-ins.

        The only way Repugnicans win is by cheating. That's all we need to know. They will cheat, tRump will win, and mythical America will die. It was such a beautiful concept: equality, freedom. I don't understand why anyone would be against that.
