This isn't what I was asking. You're changing the argument now to try and claim that Trump's tweets would have increased scrutiny on mail-in voting, when in reality most states have had mail-in voting before the Trump presidency and has seen low levels of voter fraud.

You're trying to do a post-hoc justification in attempt to rationalize Trump's tweets rather than answer my argument. I'll ask you again: Where's the voter fraud data showing that vote by mail causes a massive amount of fraud?

How do we know how much fraud there is? How much fraud were we aware of at Enron until they went bust?

Where's the data showing that wearing a red hat causes a lot of abuse to be yelled at you by strangers?

The answer is historically, not much. Well, unless it happens that we're talking about a Trump (MAGA) hat.
