the emails also made claims about America's "entire voting infrastructure"
Complete quote from the article:
[ ... ] the emails also made claims about America's "entire voting infrastructure" being compromised, though that's an obvious lie to sow doubt in people's minds.
To a rational American[1], yes, that might register as an obvious lie.
To a person who believes in QAnon conspiracy theories - such as Hillary Clinton controls the 5G towers causing COVID-19, and she is also in cahoots with Bill Gates who's waiting in the wings to sell COVID vaccines, which is why we're not wearing masks - it's not an obvious lie. Quite the opposite. It's a conspiracy theory that's ripe for adoption.
Mission Accomplished. The QAnon crowd - overwhelmingly Trump supporters - will accept only one of the two possible outcomes in the upcoming election.
