- b.c.,
More and more political analysts observers and scholars are coming around to the realization of the high LIKELIHOOD that Trump will somehow fuck with the November 2020 elections. He's ALREADY trying to suppress the vote and cast doubt on any process he figures would mean a loss for him or the GOP.
Like all the SHIT he stirred over California's special election. Until their candidate won. Then he STFU.

Step by ominous step, Donald Trump is eliminating or blocking every Constitutional check and balance on his administration to evade accountability for corruption.
The only path still open to save America from becoming an autocracy is the ballot box in November.
Even there Trump is working to rig the election with help from his secretary of State and various elected Republican leaders.
On national television, he has declared willingness to accept help from Moscow and Beijing, which would violate criminal law. But as Trump dismantles the mechanisms Congress created to ensure Executive branch integrity, who can stop him?
Trump fired four inspectors general since April 3. Their duty is to root out corruption and abuse of power in his administration.
He also replaced one IG with a loyal White House aide.
That ensures nothing will be done to expose abuses by Trump in handing out a half-trillion dollars of coronavirus relief. "I'll be the oversight, I'll be the oversight," Trump said, repeating himself on March 24 according to the official White House transcript.
Those words surely comforted embezzlers and fraudsters everywhere, not to mention the Trump-Kushner family of grifters. His relatives have long lapped up government welfare, hid documents from auditors and lied under oath for profit.
Trump also refuses to fill vacancies on the Federal Election Commission, leaving half of its six seats vacant. Lacking the required four-member quorum renders the agency powerless to act against civil and criminal violations of campaign finance law.
As the Kremlin interferes again in the 2020 election, as the Senate Intelligence Committee says it is already doing, who in the Trump administration will stand up?
Answer: nobody.
And anyone who tries will be shut down fast.
