How to Steal an Election

Trump and his campaign have sufficient state election returns and polling data to claim victory. Trump tweets: "VICTORY!" Twitter takes it down and locks his account, and those of his campaign. He goes out to the campaign hotel ballroom for a victory speech and only OneAmerica News Network carries the speech. Trump's proclamations are branded "fake news." Zero coverage. Networks and other news media outlets show poll workers and election officials counting and counting and counting "contested" ballots. The news media and the social media giants will not let Trump win. That is not the headline they will allow. Efforts by the Trump campaign to claim victory and certify election results are subjected to endless lawsuits -- all of which are reported on by media outlets, because Trump has (supposedly) been caught cheating, of course.

You see how this plays out. When the truth cannot be reported, it is worse than being lied to about what is truly happening. The insidious plot of the Left can irretrievably twist the constitution and the nation in just a very few days. Fight for the truth.

The social media tech titans are doing their best to make sure the story of the Hunter Biden laptops, and the damning records contained therein, does not spread. Twitter has suspended the New York Post's account because of the story and locked the Trump campaign's account over a Hunter Biden-related video.

We are less than two weeks from election day, so here is your final installment to help you understand the theft of the upcoming presidential election. We previously established the Left's documented plan to disrupt the 2020 presidential election, and then examined some of the information operations techniques deployed against the American public to persuade and influence the election "season" ahead.

In the past few days, we have been treated to an information suppression operation by the Left and their public relations arm (the "journalists" of the news media and social media tech giants) -- that perfectly demonstrates the countermeasures that can be deployed to actively deny the truth. This important defensive technique -- swarming and shutting down reporting on a subject by furiously ignoring it, or reporting it as "debunked," "discredited," or "foreign intervention." The offensive application is discussed below, but first, some context.

There is little doubt that Gatestone Institute readers are the sort of folk who will have successfully gained access to the reports, first broken by the New York Post, of the Hunter Biden laptops and the damning records contained therein. The social media tech titans are doing their best to make sure the story does not spread. Twitter has suspended the New York Post's account because of the story and locked the Trump campaign's account over a Hunter Biden-related video.

Hunter appears to have explicitly leveraged his father's position as Vice President -- and there was "consideration" planned for the "Big Guy." It seems as if Joe Biden knew or should have known what was going on. Forget the idea that reporters would pressure the Biden campaign to give substantive answers to any questions regarding this scandal. The only tough question Biden has been asked recently was what flavor milkshake he bought. You are supposed to believe this is "normal."

Here is why you are supposed to unblinkingly swallow this nonsense: You have been psychologically conditioned to accept it. Zero analysis. Zero questioning. Consume. Digest. Accept. Ask for more, politely. Be satiated.

In previous election-theft articles, we explained how the Transition Integrity Project (TIP) report and the subsequent news media reporting about it are components of psychological warfare within the broader Leftist national information warfare campaign. We reviewed how the goal is to break down and weaken Trump support before, during and after election day. We explained how TIP has coordinated a dishonest storyline as the official narrative of the 2020 presidential election and alerted the militant wing of their movement to seize control of the lead-up to election day and beyond.

Here comes the offensive information campaign. Election night results indicate a Trump victory. The Left wants to keep counting and counting and counting ballots until they get the number that lets them claim victory -- they want election "season." Trump and his campaign have sufficient state election returns and polling data to claim victory. Trump tweets: "VICTORY!" Twitter takes it down and locks his account, and those of his campaign. He goes out to the campaign hotel ballroom for a victory speech and only OneAmerica News Network carries the speech. Trump's proclamations are branded "fake news." Zero coverage. Networks and other news media outlets show poll workers and election officials counting and counting and counting "contested" ballots. The news media and the social media giants will not let Trump win. That is not the headline they will allow. Efforts by the Trump campaign to claim victory and certify election results are subjected to endless lawsuits -- all of which are reported on by media outlets, because Trump has (supposedly) been caught cheating, of course.

And EVERYONE on the left is just fine with this.

What is rule of law or the constitution when you can cheat your way to power and glory?

By any means, necessary.

Trump is going to win. Hands down.
He treats his supporters like family talking around the kitchen table. He loves his supporters like family. His supporters feel it. They know their relationship with him is genuine and that Trump cares about them.
I’ve never seen anything like it. He supports them and they support him.
Yup, I analyzed this special relationship today and Trump will win.
The poor demonrats hate him and they hate us Trump supporters.
They are actually kind of jealous of the relationship between Trump and his supporters.

If the social media giants really do engage in this campaign, then upon proper trial and conviction, they should be the first in line:

All this works for a landslide as well as for a squeaker.If the only information most of the voters see is FB etc propaganda then the result will quite possibly involve a lot of people on the left with guns and righteous murder in mind. Yes, they have guns, but they are mostly not in individual hands and won’t be until “needed.” They also have organization throughout. We have some small groups on the fringe and we do not know here the military will come down. The Pentagon is still largely staffed by Obama promotions.

This will backfire, IMO. The immediate and decisive victory will be seared in the collective conscious. The slow walking reversal will stink up the nation. No, the Left again will overreach.

The problem that the left is trying to engineer is the one about the tree falling in the forest. If no one hears about it, does anyone think it happened? If 100% of the left media, MSM and social, reports stridently that Biden has won then when Trump actually stays in the WH the cries will go up to eject the announced "loser" of the election and hordes of rich kid lefties and professional revolutionaries will be in the street and they will have guns this time. The left has lots of guns but they are stored in Soros et al controlled locations. those rent-a-vans that show up at riots will be full of automatic weapons and ammo. There will be no functioning police force to intercept them.

Our own communications will probably find their plugs pulled and we may have no way ourselves to verify the truth of a Trump win.

those rent-a-vans that show up at riots will be full of automatic weapons and ammo. There will be no functioning police force to intercept them.

I dunno. Their success will depend on how well-versed they are with them.

I’m constantly annoyed by explanations like this:

Hunter appears to have explicitly leveraged his father's position as Vice President...

There is now way in hell the Ukrainians, Chinese, or Russians recruited Hunter for his business acumen and experience. He was a useless drug addict wastrel and pedophile doing nothing with his life. He had no connections in those countries and there was no way he could have initiated the contacts.

Father Joe HAD to be the one who initiated the contacts and “suggested” that they all hire his son. It doesn’t take a lot of consideration to see that this is how it must have played out.

As Rush has said many times, Joe set it all up and sent son Hunter out as the bagman.
