This is the piece you need to read right now about Trump’s election subversion. Yes, he’ll try it. But most of the likely methods just won’t work. The states still run their own show. So do the courts. Of course he’ll cry “rigged” again, but only the usual gullibles of the GOP base will believe him.

It’s easy to get discouraged. (Today he rumbled about banning mail voting and overriding states’ ID systems by executive order.) But…. American civil society is still strong, with Minneapolis setting a splendid example. Our Constitution is still there. Do not be tempted by despair, as he wants. /2

@walterolson.bsky.social well, because (and we need to say this clearly and frequently) we don't leave it up to folks like Trump to decide. The conflict of interest is obvious and avoidable.

Trump can cry all he wants, but it's not up to him, as it wasn't up to him in 2024.
