I'd like to give an insight to all that is happening from another point of view. I think the Democrats are already preparing an argument that the president stole the election again. They intend to stymie his time as best they can, by using this tactic the rest of his presidency.
It's a win win scenario, they either win the election because someone flinched, or they can gain power by claiming it was stolen. Every article and movement seems to have this same set up. Even declaring Biden the winner early only works if they are setting up that argument.
A friend pointed it out, and I thought I would share.
Yeah and if Trump wins they are going to call him facsist and dictator and compare him to likes of Lukasenko or Putin.
There's only one problem with that approach. It's nothing new. They were crying about stolen elections for 4 years. I doubt anyone even cares at this point.
It would help them with the next election though, since they would show the president had been illegitimate for 8 years. The argument would then be it was time to bring democracy back to the presidency.
