I don’t see it that way. I believe Trump will be able to say he WON TWICE regardless of how much they tried to rig the system.
Even though Bush clearly beat Gore, the Democrats used the recount to bash Bush and question his legitimacy for his entire presidency. They claimed over and over again that “Bush stole the election.” In spite of no evidence indicating that Gore ever won anything, I once had a liberal PhD tell me just that — with a straight face. She was serious. That is how demented and easily manipulated these people are.
