  Trump has said that Elon “knows those computers better than anybody … And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide”.

  First of all, we know that to be false because we know Elon doesn’t know shit about computers. But, aside from that, there are multiple possible interpretations of what he meant, anything from “Elon rigged the election” to “Elon ensured the integrity of the election”.

  My policy is “Don’t believe anything Trump says about anything”. I don’t change that policy when he says something that I want to believe is true.

    Wanna see a letter from several computer science PhDs to Kamala Harris presenting plausible evidence that MAGA hacked the voting machines?

      That’s not what that letter says. It says that operatives may have gained access to the software used to count votes, and if that happened they may have been able to probe that software for weaknesses.

      What it doesn’t say is that there was a subsequent, second breach of the voting machines in which doctored software was then installed.

      It’s like someone gaining access to blueprints for a bank vault. Yes, that theoretically lowers the security of the vault, but it doesn’t prove that a bank heist has taken place, just that a heist is more likely to be possible now.

        Okay so what do you do when the mob gets the blueprints for the bank vault, and then a few weeks later the Don brags about all the money he stole?

      This is insane… But also his discourse is so incoherent that one could argue he was being sarcastic or something.

        Don’t join the felon’s defenders. We’re in this deep in part because people dismiss what they don’t want to believe from him as jokes.

        The insurrectionist is telling us his crimes. Bragging about them even. He’s proud of them.
