https://www.rawstory.com/2020/09/conservative-explains-how-trump-is-working-to-rig-the-election-this-isnt-a-cover-up-its-whats-ahead/Wednesday evening she posted a Twitter thread in response to Attorney General Bill Barrs disastrous and disturbing CNN interview. One part of his comments, she says, that set off alarm bells for her was Barrs odd insistence that a foreign government could send thousands of fake ballots to rig the election and that he refused to offer and evidence, other than what he says is logic.
. . .
Carpenter, who by the way was a senior staffer for Senator Ted Cruz and Senator Jim DeMint, goes on to explain her reasoning.
Basically, shes saying Trump is going full-force against mail-in ballots, while the Trump administration lays the groundwork to blame China for rigging the election against him. Carpenter explains how:
Let me tell you why. Trump has said the election will be rigged. He has cast aspersions over mail-in ballots. And now the AG is suggesting foreign interference w mail in ballots. While the Admin refuses to provide oral briefings about election interference to Congress.
Yes, the Trump administration has notified Congress it will no longer provide them with in-person intelligence briefings. Only written information.
That means whatever written story about election interference that goes to Congress is the story, she continues. No pushback. And print material leaks. They will set the narrative. Barr and others are saying dont worry about Russia. Its China thats the problem.
China allegedly is in favor of a Biden presidency over as Trump presidency.
You dont need a crystal ball to see it. Blame China for rigging mail-in ballots, she warns.

(1,957 posts)It is clearly obvious what their plan is:
- Emphasize that China "hates Trump" because of the trade war and then add in the Biden-China connection conspiracy
- Insist China "rigged" the election at the polls, and have the DNS and AG agree with no evidence other than a "fake Chinese ballot".
- In reality, they probably have voting machines rigged already in some swing States via Russian hackers
This is is all foiled if a substantial number of voters vote through the mail. The insistence that people go to the polls - and the fact that they only seem concerned about mail voting in some States - would tend to support this theory. Nobody acts this "scared" about mail in voting unless they already had a plan that would be harmed by main in voting.
