    The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election



    For more than a year, a loosely organized coalition of operatives scrambled to shore up America’s institutions as they came under simultaneous attack from a remorseless pandemic and an autocratically inclined President. Though much of this activity took place on the left, it was separate from the Biden campaign and crossed ideological lines, with crucial contributions by nonpartisan and conservative actors. The scenario the shadow campaigners were desperate to stop was not a Trump victory. It was an election so calamitous that no result could be discerned at all, a failure of the central act of democratic self-governance that has been a hallmark of America since its founding.

    Their work touched every aspect of the election. They got states to change voting systems and laws and helped secure hundreds of millions in public and private funding. They fended off voter-suppression lawsuits, recruited armies of poll workers and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time. They successfully pressured social media companies to take a harder line against disinformation and used data-driven strategies to fight viral smears. They executed national public-awareness campaigns that helped Americans understand how the vote count would unfold over days or weeks, preventing Trump’s conspiracy theories and false claims of victory from getting more traction.”

    Democracy won in the end. The will of the people prevailed. But it’s crazy, in retrospect, that this is what it took to put on an election in the United States of America.”


    They don’t even try to hide it folks. They are trying to get out ahead of anything else, and say that it was done to “protect democracy.”

    Saw this posted in another thread, and this was my response to their claim that they manipulated it to "fortify it".

    So long story short, it wasnt a conspiracy but reality. And some here will be ok with that. Its beyond sad.

    They ( the communist/democrats/swamp) will continue to kick the dog until he bites.
    It’s sad that I had the thought while I was reading it that that may be one of the intended purposes of the article.

    1: Steer the narrative to the “protection” angle;

    2: Incite MORE action from fed-up Americans to continue to drive the wedge between left and right - most likely resulting in violent action and ultimately resulting in further legislation.
