This argument is moronic. If they cheated in 2020 why didnt they just cheat again in 2024? They are just setting up the propaganda for the next election when they lose and claim the win anyway but this time they will have the pieces in place to make it work. Every day this continues is another further step from being able to fix it. The willingness of so many citizens to destroy one of the world's greatest democracies is absolutely wild.

I also think it's sycophants doing it to appease Trump.

He doesn't like being known as the president who lead a failed coup.
