In other words, Trump knows he’s really unpopular so he’s trying to overthrow our democracy…again.

those article II emergency powers are certainly looking to be a constitution weak point when you throw bad actors into the works

Considering how long it took SCOTUS to rule on the tariffs, this is a rather alarming development.

people against voting are activists. People who want to protect their rights are terrorists.

“Anti-voting activists” aka traitors to the American people and democracy. When can we start handling this the way the French would?

The French would’ve started a revolution about 7 constitutional crises ago.

The real question is if they’ll try this early in an attempt or normalize it, or wait until say, Election Day itself so they can declare “there’s just too much chaos, who knows who really won?”

Fascist governments almost never give up power willingly and as far as I can find throughout history never by fair elections.
This is exactly why him and his accomplices should have already been in prison for their crimes, But No! We had to do it the hard way.

Imagine having a chance to give a SOTU address to quell any possible concerns an American could have about your Presidency. This would prevent you from losing the mid-terms. Yet instead, you go through the effort of creating an artificial crisis to rig them instead.
Sick of this.

Trump has claimed every election was rigged, even the elections he won. He also claimed the Republican primary that he lost to Ted Cruz was rigged. The “patriot” party will happily let this country burn and never say a word. While some might be banking bigly, the payoff can’t be high enough for every single GOP politician to sell out their country so completely.

So now we can see where Trump got the idea to accuse members of the Supreme Court of being influenced/controlled by foreign powers when he lost the tariff case. Foreign interference is to be the rationale for declaring an emergency and taking over elections, and accusing our Supreme Court of also being influenced or controlled by foreign entities sets the stage for ignoring their future findings regarding his election takeover plans.

Wouldn’t blue states just ignore his blatant violation of the Constitution and carry on as always? I can see red states bending the knee, but I don’t see blue states changing anything.

Goddamnit, no one has the right to seize our democracy for themselves.
No one.
This is the reddest of red lines. If they fuck with the next election to take the country for themselves, there will be no laws left for us to obey.

Honestly I think they are looking for any excuse to somehow keep the current congress in power past their terms. Like if the elections are “contested” do you think Mike Johnson just gonna hand over the keys once this congressional term is up lol

I guess it’s a good thing the federal government doesn’t have much jurisdiction over elections.

They’re going to do everything they can. They have to, knowing the only thing they’ll have if they lose the midterms is jail.

I saw a comic in the Baltimore Sun, that was democrats harassing Republicans about them being anti-democracy, while the democrats had signs like 60% support socialist policies, and X% support Mamdani…and I so wish I could slap the comic artist in the face for not getting that socialist policies, and having a muslim slightly left of center mayor aren’t “anti-democratic” infact they are very much ideals that support and are supported by democracy. Meanwhile they push voter suppression, redistricting, etc…I’m angry at the cartoonist for being so ignorant and angry at the paper for even running the bad faith political cartoon.
