#DELAY IS CRITICAL TO EVERY PART of the Trump strategy if Biden wins in November
—delay verifying ballots,
delay with recounts,
delay with audits.Delay sows doubt.
Piling up #lawsuits does too, even if they are later thrown out.
The RNC has filed lawsuits in Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and even Mississippi.
Kari Lake filed a case with the Supreme Court claiming electronic voting machines in Maricopa County are “susceptible to hacking.”
She wants the Court to outlaw electronic voting.
No matter the outcome of the case, Lake will, no doubt, blame these machines should she
—or Trump—lose their elections in Arizona.Layered over this volatile scenario is the #threat of #violence, whether Trump explicitly encourages it at the time or not.
His torrent of #lies and the #cowardice of elected Republicans who knowingly echo his lies have created a permanent threat to election workers.
Trump supporters are primed for #battle
—metaphoric and physical.A spokeswoman for Trump recently claimed that the party will be sending “#soldiers” to monitor voting.
Last week, Judge Michael Luttig remarked about the unprecedented
threat Trump presents to our judiciary and to democracy,
following Trump’s #attacks on the daughter of the judge who will preside over his hush money case.“Never in history has any person leveled such attacks and been met with such #passivity, #acquiescence, and #submissiveness by the nation,” Luttig wrote.
The same can be said for the nation’s collective reaction to Trump’s plans to steal the 2024 election.
Rich Lowry wrote last month in a National Review column titled
“How Exactly Would Donald Trump End American Democracy?”
that “we can stipulate that if Trump loses in November 👉he won’t concede the election and, in all likelihood, will engage in the same kind of pressure campaign to change the results as he did in 2020.”What Trump has planned for November and December, if he doesn’t win, is not a “pressure campaign.” It’s another #coup.
