The Fix Is In

Follow American politics long enough, and you’ll soon notice two phenomena so reliable you can set your watch by them:

The Left always explains exactly what they plan to do.
They explain it by projecting their schemes onto their opposition.

The Left’s propensity for confessional projection–conjection–if you will, is really quite remarkable. They monologue like passive-aggressive pulp serial villains.

Here’s a procession of warhorses from the Democrats’ fading old guard sternly warning that Trump may not accept the results of the election.

Which attentive observers will correctly take to mean that the Democrats have no intention of accepting the election results.

How will the Left pull off what will essentially amount to a coup? They’ve helpfully explained that, as well.

In preparation for delayed results on Election Day due to millions of mail-in ballots, Twitter said Thursday that it will delete or label posts that claim victory too early, according to a report.

The social network, which already prohibits or flags tweets that sow confusion about voting, will institute new guidelines to take effect next Thursday about posts “claiming victory before election results have been certified” or aiming to “prevent a peaceful transfer of power,” Politico reported.

It will also take similar action against “disputed claims” about the voting process, including “unverified information about election rigging, ballot tampering, vote tallying, or certification of election results.”

“We will not permit our service to be abused around civic processes, most importantly elections,” Twitter said. “Any attempt to do so – both foreign and domestic – will be met with strict enforcement of our rules, which are applied equally and judiciously for everyone.”

Twitter spokesman Trenton Kennedy said the company is being transparent about the efforts it will take to prevent confusion as voters are expected to shun voting in person in favor of mail-in ballots amid coronavirus fears.

And Twitter isn’t alone.

Facebook also announced that it will flag any candidates declaring victory early and will ban political ads in the week before the Nov. 3 election.

Those mail-in ballots are the key. Far more Democrats than Republicans–a majority, in fact–plan to vote by mail. Most of those ballots will not be counted until after election night, thus inviting two likely scenarios:

Trump appears to win on election night, since he’ll get most of his votes at the ballot box. But mail-in ballots counted over the following days flip the race to Biden.
Trump does in fact win on election night, but Democrat apparatchiks conveniently keep finding mail-in ballots until Biden snatches away the victory. As AE points out in the article linked above, the fact that most Republicans will vote on election day will tell the Democrats exactly how many votes they need to fake to beat Trump.

In either event, the Party have their Big Tech hatchet men prepping the public for a contested election and the massive, nationwide unrest that’s likely to result. Zuckerberg and Dorsey’s job will be to silence Trump and his supporters, ensuring that the MSM’s narrative dominates.
