Yea, I was just trying to see if I was missing something as it feels like the author of that twitter thread has more of an ax to grind specifically with Bloomberg. He attempts to paint it as "stealing the election" but that seems like propaganda as much as anything since a lot of the things there are nothing new. Paying people to come to rallies is a real thing, stealing people from others campaigns isn't new, etc. but the way this guy paints it he is acting like he alone if a threat to democracy when the reality is it has been under siege for a while.
