One of the biggest problems that Donald Trump is facing in his attempts to thwart democracy and successfully pull off a coup d’état is that the jurisdictions he is accusing of massive voter fraud and failure are under the control of Republican Party officials. These officials have been given nothing even approximating evidence that a single example of voter fraud took place, let alone massive voter fraud.
On Wednesday, Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich went on Fox News with Neil Cavuto to explain that even if the Trump administration could prove that their claims are true—and that is an “if” the size of a planet—it still wouldn’t turn Arizona from blue to red. Cavuto said, “Believe me, Attorney General, I admire your nerves of steel and a backbone to match … because a lot of people are not going to digest this very nice.” He asked Brnovich to be clear about what he was saying. Brnovich tried to be as clear as possible. Spoiler alert: Donald Trump lost big time.
MARK BRNOVICH: Yes. Based on that lawsuit, and the ballots that are being contested, and based on what we know happened in the past, there is no evidence, there are no facts, that would lead anyone to believe that the election results will change.
Brnovich then points out that there were quite a few election results in the state of Arizona that did not go the way that Democratic Party candidates had hoped, and if there was a grand conspiracy to thrust Joe Biden into the White House, it was being done in a very counterproductive fashion. “If indeed there was some great conspiracy, it apparently didn't work.”
Brnovich has had to deal with the conspiracy-minded Trump supporters of his state all year. In June he found himself needing to send a cease and desist letter to Dream City Church, which continued to lie that it had a magic air filtration system that would mitigate the spread of COVID-19 during megachurch functions. One would think that would have been the largest group of poor decision-makers he would have to fight with.
