Shit, pretty sure he's on tape telling Netentyahu, that starting a war to cancel elections is a great idea that he wants to do.
He wants a regime change eventually, and so does the money behind him.
But what trump wants more, is anything that will cancel midterms and last long enough to cancel the next presidential too.
That's why he's doing this, holding onto political power is the golden goose. Not even trump is dumb enough to kill and eat the goose. As we get closer to elections, we'll see him pass on money if it means holding onto power longer. But if midterms happen and he loses the House, that's a lot of lost power, which means less money from bribes/grifts.
The craziest and saddiest part of this theory most people were alive when the US invaded Iraq and Afghanistan. Those elections were never cancelled.
If the US does proceed with a full on invastion of Venezuela. Trumpie tells everyone that the elections has to be cancelled. There is a going to be sizeable part of the population that is going "Yeah, cancelling the elections during a war makes sense". Even though most of them were alive during the Iraq and Afghanistan invasions.
Eh.
Cancelling elections would be the precipitator to get a 1/6 type of thing, except this time against trump. Not to mention the few high ranking military who didn't resign, have already shown their not cowards.
trump assumes everyone against him left, but the only people who left were cowards who didn't deserve to put a uniform on
Anyone that's not with trump and stayed, will likely see cancelled elections as the last opportunity to act. It won't be fun, but that's less a line in sand, and more the foundation this country was built on.
I really don't see even his biggest supporters defending cancelled elections. Especially with how much worse things are gonna be by even midterms
The mythical good soldier, never seen before but will appear at exactly the right moment.
I mean historically revolutions commonly involve military defectors/coups. No garuntee that will happen though
No guarantee it won't involve another person stepping up against trump, seizing power and then holding onto it. Usually that's how that happens
He's not going to cancel elections. He doesn't need to do it. He can delay results claiming fraud or not even that, just ignore the Congress.
And maybe he won't even need to do that. Just purge voters, strict voting laws enforcement, gerrymandering, just plain voter fraud.
And maybe he won't even need to do that, because republicans may still keep both houses without any fraudulent activity. Yes. There is a good chance that happens. You maybe read of a few disappointed voters, but most people are still 100% maga.
Weird to remind people of this, but real life still exists bro...
And wherever you're reading about what they think, I bet a billionaire owns it.
Why do you only find out about them thru billionaires?
You do realize the billionaires don't give a fuck about either group, and have been putting us against each other for generations and doing everything possible to segregate us?
Like, these all feel like very basic questions, and I'm probably coming off condescendingly, but there's some very important things we need to clear up here, and it seems like we need to start at a basic level.
The real world is influenced with what billionaires project. It's not separated.
Magats are composed of 2 groups of people. Morons and scumbags. That's it. Nothing else. And they're are all over social media praising their orange shitler.
They won't catch on till they end up like the VnJ in Nazi Germany in the 30s.
And the other half will stand with a placard on the street thinking that will solve it.
Don’t forget changing their socials pfp to the Venezuelan flag.
There's no provision in US law for suspension of elections. No matter what we hold elections. Now they'll certainly be ratfucked to hell and back but any suspension of elections will be totally illegal.
Problem is, it wouldn't be the first thing that it totally and obviously illegal, that still gets done with 0 conequenses for the fascist.
I know, but they'd literally have to cite a foreign country's laws as the justification like scrotus did pulling from english common law to nix Dobbs.
I don’t think even MAGA lets him get away with that. This is America and we have elections! We fuckin don’t vote in them but we have em, god dammit
They'll let him get away with it, because they're all going to lose their seats. The US has been taken over by a dictator. Our only hope is invasion.
