1. This is an obvious prediction, but I want to get it on record. The GOP just released Trump from any accountability for trying to cheat in the upcoming election. That's one sign of many that they are going to try to rig the election, in a range of illegal & semi-legal ways.

8. And if they do win in 2020, they can spend the next 4 years dismantling whatever checks remain on their cheating, so that there will be no more embarrassing revelations. This is likely the last election in which institutions have any power to restrain them.

9. This election has existential stakes for the current configuration of conservatism. Their demographic is shrinking & their hold on power requires increasingly anti-democratic measures. They will do *anything* to win this one -- more than Dems are prepared for, I suspect.

10. Anyway, there you have it: watch for a growing wave of stories from the RW swamp that Dems are cheating. It will rise to a crescendo as the election approaches. Dems will be caught flat-footed, the media will fall for it, & it'll probably work. Sigh. </fin>

Have said before and will say again: if situation were reversed in 2000, a GOP VP would've used the power to count Electoral Votes to award himself the FL votes. And Gore should've done exactly that.
