Truly, you can hear it. We’re 6~9 months away from it. The Democratic party will be outlawed and the courts disbanded. The supreme court is already completely compromised.

It will look like lunacy and many won’t believe it, but the guys with the guns will uphold it as law. Then they’ll purge the capitol police, regular police and permanently federalise the national guard.

It’ll go quick. I’m not sure if Trump will be around for it, but this is the exact same playbook. The fascist takeover has begun and is accelerating.

The next step is invading greenland and cuba and annexing Canada.

Ridiculous, but they are getting away with all of it.

The sooner the American people realise they are no longer living in a democracy, the sooner all of this will be over.

My people were forced from their land and marched in the dead of winter from what is today Georgia to what is today Oklahoma in an event that we now call The Trail of Tears…

This has never been a democracy.

The republicans will suggest the democrats should be disbanded because they are soft on "terrorism" and the democrats will disband themselves to prove the republicans are wrong about how hardcore they are.

"any objection"

As if the Dems would actually object. They'll concede the obviously rigged election with a smile and a handshake, just like they always do.

Pretty difficult to drop accusation bombs when you spend 4 years arguing elections are infailable.

Exactly, Jefferies will blabber along for a few hours, Schumer will be so concerned, and then they will vote for it lmao

Yeah McConnell is one of them. There's a reason they ragged so hard on Dominion voting systems, it was whatever one Kentucky used that the Republicans had compromised.

Republicans are the dumbest kunts.

A possible example of hypocrisy is feeding the nazi site

There's a power struggle over the narrative when it comes to cheating in elections. Gerrymandering, voter ID, vote harvesting, automatic voting machines, mail in ballots. They either benefit one party slightly more than the other inherently or because there is greater opportunity for fraud, simply because of voter demographics and mobilization. This turns into pearl clutching over saving democracy and so on. There is some truth to ask of it, but mostly it's the power struggle over the narrative.
