Top Dems expect Trump to cry fraud to justify messing with the vote
Congress’s top intelligence watchdogs are officially bracing for things to get weirdly meta at the ballot box.
The top Democrats running the House and Senate intelligence committees have apparently decided to say the quiet part through a megaphone. They are officially operating under the assumption that the president will claim election fraud or foreign interference purely to justify meddling in the vote himself.
It is the ultimate reverse card of modern politics. Instead of guarding the perimeter against external hackers, the fear is that the White House sounds a phantom alarm just to step in, freeze proceedings, and rewrite the outcome from the inside.
Watching the defense plan for the referee to steal the ball before kickoff is certainly one novel way to run a constitutional republic.
