Trump has already signs of onset of dementia.
If Dems put up a pretty good replacement for Biden in the next presidential debate, Trump is going to duck it.

If Dems put up a pretty good replacement for Biden in the next presidential debate, Trump is going to duck it.
Given the number of armed nutters in the USA, point number one is unpredictable.
Point number 2 really isn't in question. The system is robust and fair, albeit that individual election crimes do occur on a tiny scale. That happens everywhere - especially where postal vote fraud is not taken seriously, but even then it is small scale and makes no difference to the result.
Of course many Trump supporters are heavily invested in the idea that the elections are unfair. They do this so just like last time, when he loses, they can cry foul and demand that he win even though he lost.
When horrible Hilary lost, she REALLY did lose because of dirty tricks, much of it from Russia because they hacked her email and publicised her misuse of her own email server which heavily went against her in the eyes of the electorate. Even though she lost because of foul play, there was very little fuss, because she at least had the grace not to challenge the election like Trump did. She REALLY had cause to do so. Trump did not.
It was interesting I thought that the head of the FBI, Comey, was a great patriot in Trump's eyes when he announced a week before the election that he was investigating Clinton's email debacle. Trump could not praise him enough. Then, when Comey announced after the election that he was investigating Russian meddling in the election, Trump dismissed him and lied about how the process had been carried out, claiming that he did so on advice, when he can be proved to have written his own draft of the dismissal earlier. Trump has I think some concern about what Putin might reveal about him. This is not a conspiracy theory like some I have read here. There is evidence that he is very concerned to butter up Putin and there are credible accusations that he has been compromised by sexual scandal which occurred in Russia.
I am not sure that it was just a mistake.
The fault was traced to a crowdstrike sys file in system32\drivers. I can't see why a driver file should be updated in the first place. It should simply provide a kernel level hook to the rest of the code because it has elevated priviledge of kernel code.
Or he just turned by chance and the bullet missed.
He moves. There is a period of time between a shooter deciding to fire, moving his finger to execute the shot, the hammer falling onto the base of the cartridge, the explosion developing in the breach of the rifle, and the bullet transiting the distance between the muzzle and the target. Anyone who shoots regularly (I do) knows this.
Shooting at a live target is also affected by emotion. The hopeless loser would-be assassin, who was not a good shot anyway - he is reputed to have been pretty hopeless when he tried out for a shooting club team, was very likely in a high state of emotion when he attempted that shot. Good match class shooting requires that the shooter has total control of his emotions. If you are not calm, the micro movements of the body will cause significant errors in the placement of a shot.
Trump is lucky. That's all. It happens all the time that people who are shooting miss by a few inches at 130 yards.
Just an addition to the last point. I have shot thousands of rifle rounds in my time. If I am going for a very small group at a hundred meters, I really try to completely control breathing and heart beat. I can slow my heart rate just by thinking about it. When all is perfect, you very very slowly gradually squeeze the trigger while staying completely still, so that when the rifle fires, you are a little surprised. You NEVER just pull on the trigger because that will cause micro movements to the muzzle of the rifle and you will pull the shot off where you intended. The same is true of your breathing. You slow down your breathing rate really calmly, so that at the instant you choose to fire, you are not breathing at all. Breathing when you fire a shot will cause a miss, or a wide group.
Crooks was not a good shot. he would have been likely crap ping himself and it is no surprise he could not hit Trump. I am in fact surprised that he got anywhere near him at that range.
Snipers train at great length and invest a lot of time at the range, and psychological preparation is essential. Crooks had none of this preparation. He was a dumb, misfit rat. I dislike Trump intensely, but I abhor this attempt on his life.

If he was such a useless aimer, maybe it was another one on the "grassy knoll"?When he shot at Trump, he was dead on target from 150m or whatever it was. The hand of God intervened and caused Trump to move his head just as the bullets whizzed by:

You've been reading too much left wing press again. I keep warning you, but you don't learn. Don't forget, they made him do a test, and he passed!
Forbes hate him, so they tried to put their spin on it. It's a standard cognitive test that any cognitive person can pass. Each question starts off easy and gets more difficult. It's how far you get with each one that counts.
Trump Boasts About Acing ‘Hard’ Cognitive Test: Here’s What’s On Those Tests
This is the most recent time the former president has claimed to have passed a cognitive test, which experts say are simple exams meant to test for brain function problems.

The problem with Trump isn't that he is senile like Biden. I don't think he is. The problem with Trump is that he and his people tell lies just about every time they open their mouths. Add to that, his narcissistic, unpredictable, vindictive nature, and his willingness to subvert the constitutional processes of the United States regarding the peaceful handover of power, and he is to many people a dangerous megalomaniac.
He is however a lot better bet than Sleepy Joe, who is pretty much a dribbling idiot. The Democrats ought not to to be forgiven for pretending that he was capable of making decisions and being President. He doesn't even know who his Vice President is. He said she was Trump last week.

This is quite interesting. This woman's strange behaviour was noted by many. They said she appeared to signal to someone, then immediately after the shots, she was filming as if nothing happened instead of ducking or panicking. She's now been identified:
