According to Reuters, U.S. voting authorities are now warning that while the Russians may not actually hack the Presidential election, they may fake hacking the Presidential election.
What they’re saying without actually saying it is that if Hillary Clinton wins the election and Trump supporters show proof of any fraudulent activity, the “proof” will have been fabricated by… The Russians.
U.S. intelligence and law enforcement officials are warning that hackers with ties to Russia’s intelligence services could try to undermine the credibility of the presidential election by posting documents online purporting to show evidence of voter fraud.
The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said however, that the U.S. election system is so large, diffuse and antiquated that hackers would not be able to change the outcome of the Nov. 8 election.
But hackers could post documents, some of which might be falsified, that are designed to create public perceptions of widespread voter fraud, the officials said.
They said that they did not have specific evidence of such a plan, but state and local election authorities had been warned to be vigilant for hacking attempts.
...the Russians are either going to compromise the Presidential election by outright hacking it, or they will simply pretend that they compromised the elections by posting fake documents purporting to show voter fraud.

The narrative is now official and the media is ready to repeat the lie. I'm not sure if I'm beating a dead horse at this point and I apologize if the original Reuters article has been already posted. I couldn't find it. While the mainstream media continues to collude with and shelter the Democratic nominee, articles like this are worth repeating.
Almost 7 in 10 voters nationwide say they think Hillary Clinton will win the presidency next month, but most say that if that happens, Donald Trump will not accept the results and concede, according to a new CNN/ORC poll.
Americans overall are more confident that the nation's votes for president will be cast and counted accurately this year than they were in 2008. Whatever the outcome, however, nearly 8 in 10 say that once all the states have certified their vote counts, the losing candidate has an obligation to accept the results and concede to the winner.
Expectations that the Democratic Party's presidential nominee will win are widespread and growing. The 68% who say they expect a Clinton win now is up from 59% around Labor Day and 55% back in June just after the primaries ended. Republicans and Trump supporters are the sole groups, among which less than half think Clinton will ultimately win.

Looks like they have all the bases covered: foreign bogey-man, foreign bogey-man rigging elections, foreign bogey-man faking rigging elections, all while evidence showing rigged elections goes nearly unreported and is dismissed.

Trump may be polling terribly. Trump may well lose. He may well lose by a lot.
But you've got to admit that this reeks of exactly what the NerdGoddess posted - a desperate teenager trying to convince their boyfriend of three months that no matter what they hear, they like so totally did not cheat on summer break zomg!
The bases are now covered nice and neat. Even if genuine fraud were to happen, it's already been addressed and dismissed before the election even happened. Nice and tidy.

No. It doesn't. Only someone who WANTS to see election fraud will think this. Remember that this entire farce started when Trump said he wouldn't honor the elections BEFORE any votes were cast. The desperation is from the Trump camp not the media showing that Trump is a moron. Again.
