Kendzior writes of “Trump’s lie that millions of citizens voted illegally”, in similar terms to Rachel Maddow and other professional Trump haters. The imprecision of their denial is deliberate.

Most people would consider such a large number of illegal voters an outrage, and would more than justify some of the kinds of protections that Kendzior dismisses as “voter suppression”. Elections expert Alan Richman estimated that 1.3 million non-citizens voted illegally in the 2016 election:

Richman extrapolated the same 6.4 percentage of non-citizens voting illegally in 2012, when inoffensive Romney was the Republican candidate, and in 2016, when immigrants were told that Trump was for them what Hitler was for the Jews
