Show me where I've ever indicated I'm in favour of any electoral fraud?

Put up or shut up.

As for people who undermine confidence in the electoral system, Trump has more form on that score than anyone.
He doesn't like voting by mail...or even in person

Trump Believes Giving Black Voters Access to Voting Is Stealing the Election
The president believes that California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, is trying to steal the election by opening a new polling site in Lancaster.

“So in California, the Democrats, who fought like crazy to get all mail-in only ballots, and succeeded, have just opened a voting booth in the most Democrat area in the State,” Trump tweeted, Salon reports. “They are trying to steal another election. It’s all rigged out there. These votes must not count. SCAM!”
Salon notes Lancaster is not the “most Democrat area” in California. “The city’s mayor, Rex Parris, is a Republican. Lancaster is also represented by two Republicans in the state legislature,

While Trump believes that opening a polling place in a black neighborhood is a direct attack on his administration, it turns out that the move was really just to allow black folks who didn’t have a polling place in their district the right to vote easily.

And, Parris, the Republican mayor, who quite possibly believes that black people are his constituents as well, supported the move.

Ahh I see, Trump mentioned both unsolicited mail-in forms AND a new voting booth in the one sentence. He then ended the tweet with "these votes must not count". In keeping with many previous statements and announcements, he was obviously once again referring to unsolicited mail-in forms but he left the door open for deliberate misinterpretation.

Right on queue the confected outrage started. Salon pretending to think that he was referring to the new voting booth when they know full well what he was referring to.

The left, if nothing else, are relentlessly dishonest. From tiny insignificant "misinterpretations" to massive outright lies, they just keep the conveyor belt moving 24/7. It hasn't worked so far but maybe, if they don't let up, maybe something will break. Another possibility is that not enough people are listening any more, it's possible that people are only hearing "blah, blah, blah" now because it was just too much noise. Maybe that's why nothing is sticking, maybe that's why the Fake News just doesn't score any points any more, doesn't land any punches any more.
