12. He knows the principled Republicans will be important for upholding the rule of law after the election

Nov 1

It's when they stand up and say "Kamala Harris won the Electoral College, and there was none of this claimed 'fraud'" that his attempts to steal it will become impossible - if it's a bipartisan defence of the law, then officials, police and national guard members, even if they're personally usually Republican voters, get the clear message of where America stands.

So threats that could incite MAGA loons to attack principled Republicans seem worth it to him.
