MAGA types are already gearing up to lose the 2024 election

And if/when the election doesn't go their preferred way, expect cries of "fraud!" and lots of violence.

Just ask Republican Elise Stefanik.

From NBC News (emphasis added by me)-

GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik won’t commit to certifying the 2024 election results

Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., on Sunday wouldn’t commit to certifying the 2024 election results during an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”

While interviewing Stefanik, who serves in House Republican leadership, host Kristen Welker asked, “Would you vote to certify, and will you vote to certify, the results of the 2024 election no matter what they show?”

Stefanik, who has boosted former President Donald Trump’s baseless claims of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, said that she did not vote to certify the 2020 results in the state of Pennsylvania and several other states because there were “unconstitutional acts circumventing the state legislature and unilaterally changing election law.”

When asked if she stood by the comments that she made on the House floor calling Jan. 6 a “truly tragic day for America,” Stefanik said, “I have concerns about the treatment of Jan. 6 hostages.”

Stefanik argued that Biden and Democrats pose a “threat to democracy.”

Really?  Violent traitors are "hostages" when imprisoned?  And people who have different opinions than are threats "to democracy"?
