It’s another example of how Trump and MAGA are attempting to undermine faith in the coming election. Trump lost the popular vote in both 2016 and 2020, so he might be making a preemptive strike at the legitimacy of the results should he lose the popular vote a third time. Still, it’s not clear why he’s telling his supporters not to vote at all. Perhaps it’s another example of the former president and convicted felon’s cognitive decline.

    My guess? A spark:

    If Trump wins the election, his people have won and can become complacent. If you tell them to start a civil war, they’ll ask why and push back.

    If they lose the election, when Trump says fight, they just might be angry enough to do it. It might be just enough of a spark to ignite the war.
