Michael Steele Warning: Election Chaos Coming!

- How 70+ government officials are preparing for Trump and his followers to derail the 2020 election

Sound the alarm and take heed, America. A stern Michael Steele warning is predicting a calamitous election nightmare at the hands of Donald Trump and his MAGA machine!

Politics
Former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, who became the first African-American to lead the RNC in 2009, has joined an assembly of anti-Trump Republicans who are hell-bent on sending ‘The Donald’ back to private life (or jail) in 2021. However, the former RNC honcho is also alerting Democrats that the 2020 presidential election will be unlike any other in modern political history.

Michael Steele Warning

According to Steele, not only is Donald Trump preparing to pull out every trick in the book to cheat his way into a 2nd term, but his fanatical MAGA followers are plotting to go to even greater and more dangerous lengths to assure a Trump victory.

The Michael Steele warning came last week during an appearance on MSNBC when Steele told Democrats to prepare for an all-out assault on the voting process and democracy. Although Democrats have spent months preparing for foreign, domestic, and/or ‘Trumpian’ interference, Steele’s thinking is that the coming antics will be unlike anything this nation has ever experienced.

“Buckle up, America,” Steele said. “I’ve been screaming for the past few weeks ‘Y’all better wake up and get your act together. What’s about to come is real,'” he added.

The Michael Steele warning suggests that the concern should not be limited to “how Trump will behave, but how all the other elements and components of our democracy may or may not function based on what this man decides to do.”

What the unscrupulous Trump might do appears to have already begun to take place.

Michael Steele Warning Months ago, Donald Trump began planting seeds of doubt that the 2020 election will be rife with irregularities and recently tweeted that it “will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history.”

In June, Donald Trump appointed Louis DeJoy as the new Postmaster General.  DeJoy is a top Trump donor who has since started closing post offices across the country and (purposely) slowing down mail delivery in multiple states — just in time for an influx of mail-in voting ballots.

A few weeks ago, Donald Trump began a practice run for the potential enactment of martial law by sending unidentified federal officers into Portland, while threatening to do the same in Detroit, Philadelphia, Chicago, and other Democratic cities.

Last week, Donald Trump floated the idea of postponing the 2020 election “until people can properly, securely, and safely vote.”  He also suggested that the election will be such a mess, we may “be waiting around for weeks and months and literally, potentially, if you really did it right, years [for the results], because you’ll never know.”

Although Trump’s tactics appear clear, his radical MAGA followers could actually present the most danger.

A huge contingent of Trump sycophants is expected to attempt to disrupt the election in multiple states. Voter intimidation, violence, even acts of domestic terrorism such as a shooting or bombing could be staged to cancel the “fraudulent” election Trump claims it will be — or at least postpone it to a later date as Trump has demanded.

“You cannot approach this election from a conventional perspective,” Steele said.

In war games to prepare for almost anything on election day, more than 70 former government officials, military personnel, scholars, and political operatives gathered to strategize over how to prevent and/or respond to acts by Donald Trump and his supporters against the voting process. The officials included Steele, former White House chief of staff John Podesta, former Colin Powell chief of staff Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Republican members of Congress, and a bipartisan list of former elected officials, government staffers, consultants, and journalists.  As a result of that 4-session gathering, the Democratic Party has since hired voter protection directors in 19 key states. Party officials in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania have designed a precision poll-watching plan. Additionally, thousands of election monitors and lawyers will be mobilized across the country on Election Day to assure a fair and democratic voting process.

Michael Steele Warning Trump is “laying the groundwork to say: ‘The election was stolen, there was fraud, we’re going to go to court, we’re going to call out people on the streets,’” said Mark Brewer, an elections lawyer who is helping train Democratic legal volunteers in Michigan. “The guy is capable of anything, so we have to plan for everything.”

“We’ve designed an expansive voter protection program with the best lawyers in the country working to address every possible contingency and ensure that November’s elections go smoothly,” said Rachana Desai Martin, national director of voter protection for the Biden campaign.

As for how they will take heed to the Michael Steele warning and handle disruption or potential violence from lone actors in the MAGA movement, the Democrats did not wish to play their hand. However, they expect the 2020 election to make the Bush v. Gore contest of 2000 look like child’s play.

Michael Steele is right to sound the alarm but frankly if the Dems really needed this warning from Steele to take the threat of Trump and his MAGA minions seriously then, IMO, the war is already lost.  I’m not saying the Dems weren’t on top of things BEFORE he sounded the alarm. I’m saying IF the Dems waitied until NOW to prepare for the elections then they just might lose this thing and they will deserve it. This isn’t 2000 when the Dems didn’t figure out until it was much too late that the neoCons were running a stealth assault against Gore to steal the election. The Dems never saw it coming.     But Trump has given EVERYBODY ample warning. In fact, from Day One of his sorry-azz presidency he’s provided his blueprint. And the country will pay an even bigger price if he’s re-elected. But that’s what can happen if Dems get over confident,… Read more »

Hey Truth the Dems do not seem like they have been waiting. They have their own people plus all the anti Trump Repubs helping behind the scene. The way I read it was Steel is on that panel and he was trying to tell Dem voters what is going on behind the scene and to get ready for what they could see at the polls.

Truthiz1

I pray you’re right BD. I pray the Dems actually are (and have been) preparing for whatever Trump and his followers will try to throw at Us.

And with all due respect to Michael Steele I still don’t get being a Black Republican!?! If you disagree with the Dems and choose not to vote for Dems then okay. But seriously…how does any Black man (or Black woman) in America vote Republican?

It’s not like the Republican party just became blatantly racist since Trump took over the party. H*ll it’s been a blatantly racist party since the Civil Rights Act was signed into law by Pres. Lyndon Baines Johnson in 1964. Southern white Dems, in particular (aka “Dixiecrats”) went running into the welcoming arms of the Republican party.

Mr.BD

Wow I expected some cheating but I never thought about it like this. Shooting and bombing? The fact they had to bring together people from the military and prepare for an election with a war room is just crazy. How did we get to a place in America to where we have to create a war plan to stop the president from cheating a election and get him out the White House? We are seeing a lot of crazy BS in our life time.

How did we get to a place in America to where we have to create a war plan to stop the president from cheating a election and get him out the White House? […] “You get the government you deserve.” WE, The People, have allowed BOTH parties to get away with all manner of isht for far too long BD. WE kept voting the same craven, corrupt and depraved politicians into office, election after election after election. The majority of them have been in D.C. for 20, 30, 40 years while neither party has really given a d*mn about Us. And I’m as much to blame for this nightmare as anybody. I’ve only truly been engaged the past 20 years, even though I was eligible to vote well before then. Trump’s presidency has exposed how easy it would be for true strong-man to take over this country, using the Constitution… Read more »

The Daily Beast: As news has dribbled out recently that a coronavirus vaccine might hit the market as early as October, lots of Democrats and liberals have reacted with some combination of suspicion and panic that Donald Trump is somehow rigging the trial process to rush out a vaccine to help him win the election. The White House has dubbed the vaccine effort Operation Warp Speed, after all. Democratic Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois told The Daily Beast’s Sam Brodey: “I would not put it past this administration and this president to advance his personal political agenda ahead of our national interest.” Panic is an understandable reaction. If a U.S. company like Moderna does develop a vaccine before Election Day, Trump will preen around as if he developed it himself, and Fox will all but call him Jonas Salk. That’s obvious, right? Actually, I say it’s not so obvious at… Read more »

No doubt about it. The whole process is rigged and I wouldn’t trust any vaccine they claim is ready anytime this year even if they paid me to try it.

Yeah…”Operation Warp Speed” to try to finish killing Us (Black people) off.

(CNN) Behind President Donald Trump’s rhetoric railing against the expansion of vote-by-mail efforts ahead of the fall, his team is fighting to preserve the aspects of mail-in voting that they hope will offer Trump a strategic advantage. That has included a push in various states for policies such as enhanced signature matching, requirements for people to file an application before they receive a ballot and limits to when and where mail-in ballots will be counted — things election experts have said could lead to fewer votes being counted from groups that skew Democratic.Meanwhile, the President has begun laying the groundwork for the doubt and suspicion he could cast on election results if counting mail-in ballots ultimately delays the declaration of a winner.”I want to have the election. But I also don’t want to have to wait for three months and then find out that the ballots are all missing and the election… Read more »

This is both sad and pathetic. Mr. BD is correct. The fact we have to strategize war games against a sitting President to prevent him from interfering with the democratic process is mind blowing. Yet this is where we are as a nation thanks to those who couldn’t get past Hillary’s emails.

Saleem

Another thought: I’m glad we have assembled some great minds to play out every scenario in advance of what could happen. An act of terror at a polling place by some 45 maniac is not out of the question. Voters need to be alert and told to prepare for just about anything.
