The degree of thumbing the scales has to outweigh unpopularity of the incumbent. High voter turnout will beat any attempts of deniable cheating. Which is why unpopular dictators end up imprisoning or disqualifying their opponents , and rather than subverting the voting process. America hasn't reached "desperate dictatorship" levels yet, nor will it be there in 4 years. Extrapolating from current events, congressional Republicans are barreling towards a midterm wipe-out.
Absolutely delusiomal nonsense. Trump lost an election by nearly 10 million votes and still complained about fraud. If he's in power, he will stop at nothing to make sure this fraud thing is the law of the land.
It will make Hunter's laptop seem quaint.
