Along the same lines, it will be amusing to see the Garland DOJ take Trump's "automatic ten years for vandalizing federal property" for a walk on the insurrectionists.

Should be interesting what happens with the Arizona audit. The first state to do so.

Trump Diehards Came Up With Their Most Desperate Arizona Conspiracy
Hardcore Donald Trump fans, QAnon supporters, and indeed Trump himself, still hold out hope that November’s election result will be overturned thanks to the ballot audit currently taking place in Arizona.
Those hopes now apparently rest on a 5K camera and bamboo fibers.
That’s right, the auditors in Arizona are looking into the conspiracy theory that a box containing 40,000 ballots was shipped from China and stuffed into the ballot boxes in Maricopa County as part of the efforts to steal the election from the former president.
“There’s accusations that 40,000 ballots were flown in and stuffed into the box and it came from the Southeast part of the world, Asia. And what they’re doing is to find out if there’s bamboo in the paper,” Brakey told CBS5 News.
“They use bamboo in their paper processing, people in south-east Asia” Brakey added, before saying he doesn’t believe the conspiracy theory. “I’m just saying that is part of the mystery we want to un-gaslight people about.”
Brakey added that in order to see if a ballot contains bamboo, the auditors are using a camera with a resolution of 5K to take a picture of the ballot. “They can really look at depth and find out is it a hand-marked paper ballot.”
So where did the conspiracy theory about Asian paper ballots come from? Well, as far back as June 2020, Trump himself was pushing the conspiracy theory.
Then in December, a month after the election, a number of tweets related to Arizona went viral, shared tens of thousands of times, without any evidence to support their claims.
The specific claim about Asian ballots being stuffed into boxes in Arizona appears to have come from conspiracy theorist and amateur treasure hunter Jovan Pulitzer. So where is Pulitzer now? He’s heavily involved in the Arizona audit, of course...

not only is the audit behind schedule and is about to be kicked out of their space, but they’ve yet to find anything
it’s comedic and sad

It may show that there was no fraud, or it might. Either way, we'll know.

more lulz

..Now, more than six months after the election, the circus in Arizona, ordered by the state Senate, has become the last stand of the denialists. The review has attracted the close attention of Trump himself, who has fired off repeated, blustery statements about the count from his Mar-a-Lago exile. But Arizona is committing all the same sins that Trump’s supporters have been denouncing, using a brazenly partisan process run by apparently unqualified parties, with procedures kept secret and subject to change. Observers are being asked to sign nondisclosure agreements, reporters have been kicked out of the site, and the exercise is being largely funded by interested outside parties—even though the Arizona legislature recently passed a law that prevents local boards from accepting outside funding.
If this is what it takes to conduct the count, the cure is worse than the disease—except that there is no disease, because there’s no evidence of widespread fraud in Maricopa County, and this is no cure. The point of election audits is to make voters feel more secure about the state of elections, but this one is certain to leave people feeling less confident about the process...

I guess I'm a bit more certain that you: I am in fact quite confident that a sham "audit" with a preordained outcome will in fact "show" that there was "fraud."

There is "fraud" in every election.
I am confident there was small amounts of "fraud" in this election.
I am also confident there was not large scale "fraud" that changed the outcome of the election in favor of Biden.
Just my opinion though...

Right; all of this will be an exercise in finding and microwaving a few isolated examples, such that the bad-faith actors can "
many people are saying" and "
this is only the tip of the iceberg" their way through.

For the record, the only documented cases of voter fraud are cases of guys voting on behalf of their dead mothers FOR Trump. This is in spite of the $1 million bounty that the AG of Texas has announced (and is now refusing to pay)

Basing what you know off of a sham of an audit is so Trumpian of you. We will know no more after this audit than we did prior to it because it has been done poorly by people who don't know what they are doing. It's like claiming that video shot by a Trumper showing boxes going into and out of a vote counting facility proves that voter fraud happened. It doesn't prove that at all.
