U.S. Politics

I don't think they were smart enough to "fix an election" if by that you mean somehow manipulating the vote totals with fake votes.  These are not particularly bright people who were known for getting things done. I do think they used COVID as a pretext to change the election laws in a way that changed the outcome.  Imagine if Trump and the Republicans had changed the elections is the weeks just before the election in such a way that statistical changed the outcome.   There would have been justified outcries that the election was unfair.   Trump would have won the 2020 election by the same margin that he won in 2024.

   Disagree. You're underestimating an opponent. This is why Trump embraced Musk. Musk's SpaceX computer nerds prevented this same chicanery in 2024. You mention "fake" votes. SWITCHING votes from 1 candidate to the other are Not "Fake" votes. And a SWITCHED Vote is actually a 2 vote switch in the vote count.

I don't buy that the Biden crowd was that smart and there is no evidence of such.  The difference in the 2020 election was a statistical outlier in total votes.  Both candidates received more votes than any other candidate in American history.   A situation that was not repeated in 2024 when it returned to more normal numbers absent the COVID laws.  More total votes can't be explained as a product of votes being switched.  It is explained by vote harvesting which means that someone registered and basically voted on behalf of groups that usually do not turn out in large numbers like students and minorities.  That increased the total vote and made the difference.
