The dominion voting machine company was bought by a Republican business man. It's now called "Liberty Vote". Those machines are used in more than half the states, and their counting function which is used to count votes gets "calibrated" before the count. That calibration (eg. What sample cards return votes for what parties) determines who wins.

At the same time, security researchers, federal advisories and election experts have documented software vulnerabilities and real-world procedural failures that could be exploited if safeguards and chain-of-custody practices break down

Most election‑security experts highlighted to journalists and in formal letters that the riskiest failures are procedural: poor chain-of-custody, lax physical security, careless software updates and insider actions

Anyways I'm sure Trump isn't capable of breaking down safeguards \s

I'm confused what conspiracy you're trying to sell here. From your AI source:

no credible evidence, however, has been produced showing large‑scale, remote or systemic vote‑flipping by Dominion machines in national elections, and routine audits and paper trails are the practical defense that has verified results in contested contests

Security experts say something could happen in very specific scenarios if safeguards broke down. That sounds just like any other high profile company, so not sure what makes them different. From what I've read since they were bought, there haven't been any actual instances of tampering and they've had clean audits.
