Default Voter Fraud Investigation?

A very well written opinion piece.

https://thehill.com/opinion/white-ho...of-voter-fraud

"Too often, Trump’s words were offensive, crude and irresponsible, and for that
he has no one to blame but himself. Whether his allegations of voter fraud have
merit or not, he constructed a tinderbox and instead of, say, forming a
bipartisan commission to investigate his concerns, he lit the box at a massive
rally and encouraged a march on another branch of government — with disastrous
results.

The words used by Trump’s opponents are no better. We’re witnessing calculated
performance anger that wants to quash not just Trump’s future political
viability but, by twisted projection, his voters and supporters as well, who are
being vigorously painted as advocates of violence, as white supremacists, as
people needing reeducation and unworthy of any public voice. This comes across
as a cynical ploy to cement greater political power by marginalizing and
suppressing a major segment of the country. "
