This comment reads like a bot pushing for people to wait hopeful for midterms.
We need to ditch this idea, we're dead by midterms, so take aggressive action today.
Lemmy is full of trolls pushing for violence. That's a weapon that may need to be deployed on the future, but we still have some legal steps to take, including the Midterm Elections I'm November.
If they allow them to happen, then we vote, and take it from there. It is likely to be a bloodbath win for the Dems, and then MAGA will have to turn over power, something they don't do so well, historically, so that will be an important moment.
I'm fact, the Midterm is looking so bad for MAGA, that they've had a record number of MAGA Congressional Reps retire because they are reading the writing on the wall, and don't want to be around when deserved justice starts.
They've also had a number of resignations, like MTG, one guy suddenly croaked, and another geezer got in a bad car accident, so the MAGA vote lead in the House is only a couple of seats. If they lose any more, the House majority may flip BEFORE we get to the Midterms, and it won't matter if Trump suspends the election.
But if he does suspend elections, THEN it's on. America has never suspended an election, not even during the Civil War or WW2. That is a BRIGHT RED LINE that must not be crossed. If he does that, it is the OFFICIAL end of American Democracy, and we owe no loyalty or obedience to the abomination that is MAGA America.
But until then, we do it legally, until all those options have been exhausted.
Sadly, just a frustrated individual trying to see which way the ralad will go. Hopefully, I'm wrong. That said, we must remember Renee and all others
