I realize this is probably too conspiratorial for you, but I feel like mainstream journos are repeating mistakes of 2016.

When Russia meddling was obvious in July, it was scoffed at.

A failure of imagination is happening again...

1/
Ask yourself why Trump is singularly focused on mail-in voting, even though these votes have historically benefited Republicans. Instead, he views it as an existential threat, but why?

2/
More to the point, why is he so concerned people vote at machines, that we know for a fact can be hacked and many have no paper trail.

Isn’t it obvious?

He’s broadcasting it.

3/
He loathes Fauci, and voting, but here is praising both...

4/
Is it possible the machines will be hacked (again, just enough in the right places, not everywhere), and mail-in voting stymies that effort?

Do we doubt Putin has the desire and ability to do so? I don’t. An algorithm to skim votes would be extremely easy to deploy....

5/
And now we learn he wants an in-person meeting with Putin before the election.

Why in-person? So the intelligence community can’t listen in.

6/
Raising this issue is vital.

We must anticipate his moves rather than react after the fact. For those who day he is too stupid to pull this off, remember he has help, and he’s been pulling off cons his entire life.

Underestimate him at our peril.
