A thought I had re: new Terralerts, sowing fear of attacks aimed at
the electoral process... (conventions, election itself)

Aside from fears that some attack created by shrubco itself could be in the works, it occurred to me that maybe they are just trying to drive down voter turnout in NOV? Given that they see an energized Dem party (their own damn fault), maybe they feel that their chances are better with a low turnout due to people fearful of being blown up at the polls or what not?

1. Worse.
I think they're planting the seeds of expectation (and eventual resignation and acceptance) of possible postponement or even cancellation of the election based on fear of a terrorist attack.

The sheeple are being not-so-subtly prepped and manipulated to accept it.
