Not that even solid proof and a conviction would move a lot of die-hard Trumpers, who would not believe it, not care, or manage both of those at the same time.

What I hope this news will do, however, is shake up some of the corrupt but more intelligent Trump supporters, people who've always known what a fraud he was anyway, but didn't care as long as they could ride that gravy train. This might be a strong signal to get out while the getting is good. That will mean less support for any crazy attempts Trump might make at stealing this election.
