Telegraphing the civil unrest

This comment coming from one of the men who led the Brooks Brothers' riot in Florida 2000 to stop the vote in Palm Beach County cannot be discounted:
ROGER STONE: We are going to be laying out a very specific plan in the next couple weeks to combat what I believe will be an egregious and outrageous effort to steal the next election if the polls show as I think they will, that Trump is in a dogfight for the presidency of the United States.
[…]
ALEX JONES (HOST): I think the fact that Trump came out this week and said I am going to fight election fraud, I think that helped send them into this panic.
STONE: Well you have to let them know in advance that you’re not going to stand for it. That if there’s any solid evidence of election irregularities you’re prepared to challenge her swearing in and create a constitutional crisis.
It's hard to make the case that a decisive victory was stolen but they will certainly try. And considering the excitement of the right wing "Hang the bitch!" contingent, who knows how they'll react.
