I still find it kind of precious that these people earnestly believe that there will be future fair elections. Martial law will be imposed before these cowardly psychopaths ever have to face voters.

So true. If we can have a free and fair election. Look at how they are doing their best to erode voter’s rights even further than they already have.

Their SOLUTION - Take away VOTING RIGHTS

PT wants to eliminate taxes and replace with TARIFFS! Reason, to take ALL safety nets away, Social Security, Medicare etc…

Taking Americans to a place we don’t UNDERSTAND-Despair

Unless, in their quest for absolute power, they steal the opportunity from us (there are no “norms”)

From your lips to god’s ears.

The question becomes if people can remember just how destructive Republicans are beyond just one presidential voting cycle.

This is an excellent interview. His conclusion is heartening. Thanks for this.

Their plan is to impose voter ID laws, cut out early voting, restrict registration, purge voter rolls, eliminate vote by mail, and anything else to trim and cherry pick an electorate that favors them. This is why they are so cocky and unwavering in their support of Trump’s madman politics.

Trump and Co. aren't planning on going anywhere. If they were concerned about public opinion, they'd reverse course on their dumbfuckery.
They don't care about the Constitution. To think they'll accept the results of the next presidential election THIS TIME, is peak naivety.
IMO, we're fucked.

250 years is a good run for any democracy.

Now it's back to the Dark Ages.

About the same amount of time that it lasted with the ORIGINAL Democracy of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates
