This is retconned BS.

As a for instance, before the election, Trump denigrated mail voting to his supporters, a Trump goon sabotaged the postal service, the PA legislature forbid precanvassing mail ballots (so they wouldn’t appear in election night tabulations of the vote), ...
the PA GOP sued to throw out late-arriving mail ballots, and Trump was reported to be planning to declare victory based on the strength of the same-day vote and then to sue to stop Biden from overtaking him in mail ballots. axios.com/trump-claim-el…
This plan was then put into actual practice. Trump did declare victory in the early morning hours after th election before mail ballots had pushed Biden into a lead in PA, and he did sue to stop counting votes and then, when Biden overtook him, to throw them out.
It’s not a plan that has worked so far, but it was a plan to steal the election that was explained with precision beforehand by the people opposing it. And it’s one whose reality has been corroborated by subsequent events.
Just one thing to add; this is only a for instance. You can tell similarly precise stories about efforts to suppress mail-in ballots in other states—including Lindsey Graham’s still not fully reported activities. You can look hard at the busted plan to use the DOJ to intervene...
There was a concerted, multifaceted, well-documented effort to subvert this election, the president was an organizing force, he and much of his party actively participated, and it has caused real damage. The attempts to write all that off are deeply unworthy.
