Everybody needs to come to grips with the FACT that Trump is DISMANTLING everything good that he can possibly touch. That most definitely includes trust in our electoral infrastructure.
It's no longer significant for someone like Ms. Weintraub (FEC commissioner) to make a specific claim like that.
Rather, he has and continues to aim at EVERYTHING about ANYTHING related to the American federal government and any other institution that he can in ANY way touch. Has he done anything to BUILD ANYTHING to improve anything the government does? He only intends to destroy.
Be vigilant. But don't be shocked. Focus your energy and activities on rebuilding our American institutions. Blogger Teri Kanefield has suggested a starting place for that endeavor. She has further spelled out how and why we need to focus on rebuilding. Beside the fact that Trump's EVERY effort is to destroy, allowing ourselves to be shocked or dismayed by it is exactly what he wants.
Do you remember him making campaign rally "off the cuff" comments about serving more than two terms?
By denying him the satisfaction of engineering a general mood of helplessness, we will ensure that he cannot reach his ultimate goal.
His support is going to drop like an anvil in a Roadrunner cartoon, except for REAL.
And soon.
Face it. EVERYbody who is anybody in power in our country HATES Trump.
Ponder that for a good long while. Do you know of anyone who loves and/or respects him for him?
Consider Arizona governor Doug Ducey. Has he capitulated to Trump privately and then declared his agreement with the presider publicly on any issue or problem that people in our state generally understood and expected that Ducey should have stood up to Trump?
Picture this, Trump is impeached (matters not whether the Senate conducts a trial, Trump will still be impeached). What's going to happen to Trump's power in such a scenario?
The people who now fawn over Trump? Will they still fawn when he no longer has the authority of the Office of the President?
Really? What really will Trump do? Will it be difficult to predict, generally speaking?
First, Trump will lash out on Twitter. Will anyone respect or love him for the outlandish things he will say attacking anyone and everyone he blames for his own problems?
Wait, what? You DOUBT he will do that? On what possible basis could you figure Trump would do anything other than lashing out irrationally on Twitter?
What about the Religious Right? They make up a substantial portion of his base. There's already reports that those voters do not like the vulgarity he spews.

Is there any record of Trump taking ANY action as presider to do anything emotionally mature or genuinely self-effacing when faced with any kind of criticism or accusation of crimes or even small mistakes?
Please, tell me about it. I'm all ears.
What I've heard Trump himself say repeatedly is that the American people should not believe what they see with their own eyes and hear with their own ears that comes out of his mouth.
Those claims will begin falling on ears deaf to his words very very soon.
However, this is not cause for celebration. Nor is it cause to let up in your canvassing efforts or other advocacy regarding the 2020 election. The work still needs to be done. There is simply no cause for shock or dismay.
