NOT THIS TIME... THE NATION WILL LYNCH DEMOCRATS IF "RAZOR-THIN VICTORIES" & RECOUNTS "NOT ALLOWED" "Biden has been worried that Trump is going to try to steal another very close election. We are building infrastructure to ensure that doesn't happen - again - if President Biden wins and Trump and MAGA Republicans try to confuse [everyone] and sow chaos", said a senior Biden administration official. "Over past year, Team Biden conducted war games, crafted complex legal strategies, devoting extensive resources to prepare for, "all-hell-breaks-loose" scenarios, preparations in which Biden's margin of victory is so razor-thin that Trump and the GOP launch a tidal wave of legal challenges and political maneuvers to rerun his 2020 election strategy: declare victory anyways, and try to will it into existence." Team Biden’s in-house counsels and network of outside lawyers are currently preparing legal strategies for scenarios involving recounts that would make, in the words of one Biden official, “make Florida in 2000 look like child’s play.” Sources in and around the president’s legal and political operations say the Biden campaign’s current wargaming is informed by questions aides asked themselves in the wake of the 2020 election: What if there’s a rematch in four years with Donald Trump? What do we do if Joe Biden wins and Trump tries to steal the election again? Bidenworld spent a lot of time pondering such a scenario even before the 2020 election. Still, Team Biden has been planning for years sketching out what Trump could do as the leader of the GOP, and has partnered with the Democratic National Committee and a vast network of liberal attorneys and legal groups to conduct similar doomsday-style wargaming. One swing-state Democratic election official involved with these efforts refers to it as a "superstructure" of various legal teams and liberal operatives who "are going to fight [Team Trump and election deniers] on all fronts and let them have it from all sides, if MAGA wants to tear down our democracy." According to two Biden campaign officials and two other sources with knowledge of the operation, draft pleadings and legal motions, for all kinds of possible Trump-related emergencies, are already written and at the ready. In critical swing states such as Georgia, Arizona, and Pennsylvania, Team Biden is regularly in contact with an array of outside counsels and local law firms that have been retained to actively monitor what is happening on the ground, including with regards to the activism of election-denying Trump allies.  A spokesperson for the Democratic National Committee tells Rolling Stone that the national party is also setting aside "tens of millions of dollars in a robust voter protection program to safeguard the rights of voters to make their voices heard against relentless attacks from Donald Trump and the GOP."
