I don't think we have to get too fanciful with Trump. Maybe ask the AG to tell the country there was widespread fraud in an election when there isn't. Then let that AG resign and ask the replacement acting AG to do the same thing.

That ask is inconsistent with the AG's oath. It would not be supporting and defending the Constitution to lie to the general public about election fraud in an attempt to change the result of an election. The Constitution lays out the framework for elections, but the foundation of that framework is that the elections need to be free, fair, and followed. Saying an election was not fair, when it is in fact fair, is a dereliction of your oath of office. It goes against the foundational principles of the Constitution itself.

Or simply use innuendo to smear an opposing political figure (be it individual or organization) with statements like, "we have an ongoing investigation of which may or may not include graft, corruption, prostitution, bribery, and child molestation."

And I wouldn't put it past any "election denier" to do just that.
