Today, Politico, following on its improbable claim that Trump is eluding the media by holding rallies and cooking fries at Mcdonald's (see EPIC: Trump Trolls Kamala in Hilarious Move As He Works Fries, Drive-Thru Window at McDonald's) by claiming he has a way to seize power even if he loses on Election Day...or whenever Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin finally get around to counting their votes: The Very Real Scenario Where Trump Loses and Takes Power Anyway - POLITICO.
In the words of Donald Rumsfeld, they start with "an illogical premise and proceeding perfectly logically to an illogical conclusion." //
So, a Trump who has less power today than he had in 2020 and in a legal environment that has foreclosed some avenues that could have been exploited last time around is more likely to try to overthrow the election results. With this assertion, Donald Trump officially has achieved Super Villain status. //
An overwhelming Harris victory would make it harder for Trump to rally Republicans to his side. (If Trump wins, no one expects a comparable effort by Democrats to subvert the election.) //
The article goes on to spin a tale that would make Tom Clancy proud. All of it is predicated on two improbable events. First and foremost, the idea that a twice-defeated Trump has enough clout in state legislatures to convince them to contravene state law and just flip the electoral votes to Trump is, bluntly, both dishonest and quite possibly stupid as well. Second, the idea that a Republican House majority that literally can't pass a single budget bill has the unity to change the rules of certifying electors requires a level of dimwittery rarely witnessed, even among political journalists.
They have no concern about Kamala Harris, who serves as the presiding officer for the joint session of Congress that will elect the president, having an unresolvable conflict of interest in both corrupting the process and outcome and engaging in shenanigans of her own. //

It's all projection. The DemoCommies just assume that their opponents are as corrupt and malicious as they are. Anything and everything they accuse Trump of, they have already done or they are planning to do themselves.
