I think he has some points there and really makes me think... if any of those 7 states that were breached (DHS acknowledges this and informed the states, suspiciously i may add, MONTHS after they were breached) actually had votes altered, wouldn't the government want to cover that up in order to save face/keep americans' fath in the democratic process?
I know a little tin-foil hatty, even for me, but makes you think...
did DHS ever do an audit to see if votes were altered?

Despite assurances from the U.S. intelligence community that Russian hacking only influenced the 2016 U.S. election—and didn’t change vote tallies—there was never actually a formal federal audit of those systems, the Department of Homeland Security said.
And while DHS offered free security scans to any state that wanted them, many states—even ones that took up the DHS offer, like Michigan and Maine—either use audit procedures that are considered inadequate or don’t audit their election results at all.

“I think there’s a presumption amongst both the general public and lawmakers that DHS did some sort of investigation,” said Susan Greenhalgh, who serves as Elections Specialist at Verified Voting, a nonprofit devoted to U.S. election integrity.
“It didn’t happen. That doesn’t mean that something happened, but it also means it wasn’t investigated.”
