It's pretty easy to tell, from the narrative of Trump tweets and posts on Truth Social, if not a mountain of other evidence, that there will be multiple attempts to alter the results of the upcoming midterm elections, especially if the news for Republican chances continues to be as bad as it now has become. The pollsters and political analysts who are always very cautious about making big shifts or show big movements in their numbers are still being cautious, but even some of the more conservative ones are hinting that the House will be a lost cause for Republicans. It's also looking like the Democrats may also win back the majority in the Senate, by enough seats to negate the VP's tie breaker.

The possibility of some kind of fraud being initiated by Trump and his cronies is more than just speculation. It's a certainty.

So what is being done about it?

In record numbers everywhere, Americans are turning out to show their disgust with Trump's failed presidency, and with the way he and his administration are handling their responsibility. They ignore the Constitution, they violate the law with impunity and they keep on getting away with it because the standard excuse of "we're not the party in power" keeps being brought up. Don't tell me that! We've seen all of the tactics the Republicans use when Democrats are in power, to keep progress from being made. So far, our record of using the filibuster in the Senate that was saved when Democrats backed away from packing the court is less than 50-50.

It's time for the nest-feathering and campaign fundraising to stop, and for this party to stand on the strength the people in the streets are providing for them, and be as bold in taking risks to stop Trump as the people are telling them they want them to be. Earn the mantle of the party of opposition.

And step up, call out and do something about the attempts to cheat in the election that are a matter of course for the GOP.

No.
