If you find yourself dooming, it's worth recalling that Trump has neither the legal nor (more importantly) the practical ability to effectively federalize & rig the midterms. But if you find yourself complacent, it's important to note he can cause a whole lot of chaos by illegally trying & failing.

I'd actually say here a variant on what I used to say about election cybersecurity: It is not plausible that a cyberattacker could alter the outcome of a national or even statewide election undetected. It IS plausible they could interfere enough to undermine the public legitimacy of the results.
