preventing a stolen election in 2020
Tell me, how does a president prevent state fraud like what happened in Pennsylvania where they broke their own state constitution without consequences?
Trump was getting pretty damn sloppy at the end, which he really couldn't afford by then, given how thoroughly controlled the narrative had become. He needed to be clever, not dramatic. With how hard Dems were turning the accusation of election fraud into a scarlet letter, it had to be made into something you could get away with saying in public, and he was the only one who could do that. He needed to poke fun at shit like water pipes bursting and washing away observers, or how ballots aren't fake if they're in a suitcase rather than a briefcase, or counters slipping love notes to each other. Make their blatant cheating into something funny, pathetic, and plainly visible.
