The proof of that is easy. They admitted it.

Rahm Emanuel, in a WaPo opinion piece, made it clear: "Let's Make Sure This Crisis Doesn't Go to Waste" (March 25, 2020). A Democrat party leader makes it clear the race to corrupt the process is on.

Wisconsin (and Dewine's cancellation in Ohio) provided the basic realization that Covid would be the way forward for stealing (or "rigging" if you like that better) the election.

Wisconsin's Evers said, "Having as many absentee ballots as possible is absolutely top priority" (which Jimmy Carter himself declared the greatest threat to our election integrity only about four or five presidential elections ago); nothing had changed. This took a pretty unimportant election in Wisconsin and made it the model that established the outer limits for what they could get away with during COVID. And demonstrated the intent to steal the elections.

From there the entire election process snowballed. An academic organization that tracked the litigation found more than FIVE HUNDRED cases over the ensuing months. You had the teachers unions and AFL-CIO, the SEIU, everybody who was anybody getting in the act to demand expansion of high-risk mail-in balloting and to permit vote counting to extend well past Election Day.

They lied. They claimed Wisconsin was going to become a "super spreader" with absolutely no evidence to that effect. Carville said [Republicans] would kill people to stay in power. Of course, there was no such superspreader event, but I don't think the media ever reported on those numbers. Did you hear it?

It is pretty hard to make a cogent argument that COVID wasn't used to rig the election. It was the predicate for essentially all of the manipulations to established procedures, for Zuckerberg's private funding of election operations with string attached, for the move to mail-in and absentee balances inappropriately, the lies to voters about claiming they were confined to be able to vote absentee, all of it.

What there wasn't is a document that said, "We're going to break the law to steal this election" -- which apparently is the only evidence you'll accept on which to base an accusation against Democrats.

Meanwhile, you require the weakest cases of hearsay to claim Trump is evil, even if the hearsay has long been disproved.
Honesty, from Democrats, is gone. Very disappointing to see it happen in you, but it is a sort of disease. AFAIK there is no cure, no treatment.
