Trump’s move against Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor wasn’t just personal retribution; it was a signal flare in a much darker struggle over who controls the narrative of American democracy. Krebs, once praised for declaring the 2020 election the “most secure in history,” is now painted by critics as a gatekeeper who chose stability over full transparency. Taylor, already infamous for his anonymous resistance from within, finds his past reinterpreted through a harsher lens: not as a whistleblower, but as a potential architect inside a compromised system.
When Tulsi Gabbard invoked claims that U.S. intelligence had quietly cataloged how electronic voting systems could be breached, the debate shifted from partisan theater to existential dread. If vulnerabilities were known yet minimized, the core question is no longer whether machines can be hacked, but whether the public was ever truly trusted with the truth. In that void, every election result becomes a little less unquestionable, and every reassurance sounds a little more like a script.
