The plan is obvious. They will use those polls they have that show Trump winning, to prove he was robbed.

But I do have a pessimistic side to me. A part of me, I try to keep way down deep, fears the silent Trump voter. Like someone said up thread, his rallys are not well attended, but that's because his voters have already decided he is the One. But they also know, in their own deep down, that he's unhinged, and a narcissist, and authoritarian, and they don't need to see it anymore, but he's their Great White Hope. Someone with zero shame, that will live out their own darkest racist fantasies, comes around rarely, maybe never again. They are ashamed to admit their choice, and maybe even don't feel good about it, but they will do their "duty" and vote Trump to do the dirty deeds that maybe they wouldn't have the stomach for. But secretly wish someone else, like Trump, would for them

Fox News and other RW media have scared them shitless. WE think the country is tilting dangerously close to a dark era of Fascism. THEY are convinced if Trump doesn't get in, America will be dropped into a dark era of Communism, and a rush on boys and girls getting sex changes, and wide open borders letting in hordes of dark skinned criminals and pet chefs.
