Another problem that doomed some of the groups was their failure to secure any fundraising help from Trump, the de facto leader of the Republican Party, who remains the chief promoter of false claims of widespread voter fraud in the United States.

The people claiming fraud have no idea how vote by mail works.
Each ballot has a voter signature.
The signature is matched to the voter registration.
So the argument that millions of Chinese ballots printed on bamboo? Bullshit. They would have to match the signatures of millions of voters. That did not happen.
If duplicate ballots are returned, that’s detected and flagged. The voter gets notified there’s a problem. Again, did not happen.
The 2,000 Mules nonsense? It’s totally allowed for one person to drop off multiple ballots. Why? Again, because of signature verification. Dropping off multiple ballots proves nothing.
Reminder that Steve Bannon frankly confessed Trump’s Start the Steal conspiracy plans to a group of Trump insiders before the election.

…audio from Trump advisor, Steve Bannon, surfaced from October 31st, 2020, just a few days before the Presidential election.
Let’s listen. [Begin Videotape]
STEVE BANNON: And what Trump’s going to do is declare victory, right? He’s going to declare victory, but that doesn’t mean he’s a winner. He’s just gonna say he’s a winner. The Democrats — more of our people vote early that count. Theirs vote in mail. And so they’re going to have a natural disadvantage and Trump’s going to take advantage — that’s our strategy.
He’s gonna declare himself a winner. So when you wake up Wednesday morning, it’s going to be a firestorm. Also — also if Trump is — if Trump is losing by 10 or 11:00 at night, it’s going to be even crazier. Because he’s gonna sit right there and say they stole it. If Biden’s wining, Trump is going to do some crazy shit.
What the hell? I feel this shouldn’t surprise me but it still does.
Seriously, that was one of their bullshit claims.

Well, that is the lunatic mental level on which Republicans flourish.
