    Of course #TFG is planning his so-called #ElectionIntegrity #coup.

    THIS IS HIS STRATEGY. Not knocking on doors. Not persuading #voters. STEALING THE #PRESIDENCY.

    And this is not just about bogus #legal challenges.

    If you live in #AZ, #GA, #NV, #WI, #PA, #MI, #ME, #OH, #VA or #IA, expect VIOLENCE if your state does #voteblue.

    #ElectionOfficials will be harassed & attacked

    SPREAD THE WORD.
