In 2020 there was a fog of war where the establishment chanted "most secure election ever" until it was too late; two months isn't enough time to prove a stolen election.

But in 2024 the proof will be 2020; about 2/3 of voters now say 2020 was stolen and that's been increasing over time since 2020.

These increasingly desperate moves reinforce what everybody now knows: Trump will be the next President or the election was stolen. There won't be a period of obfuscation and delay until Jan 6. A day or so after the election it'll either be President-elect Trump, civil war, or the end of the Republic (either eventual or sudden).
