American politics really has entered the “everything is a plot” era

MAGA thinks it’s fine to rig the election, just totally normal for cult like MAGA.

Definitely the usual slop propaganda headline you’d expect from commondreams

Step one has always been to falsely accuse the Democrats of cheating, without a shred of evidence, by non-citizen voting, vote machine tampering, fake ballots, etc, over and over and over.

This is a wonderful article, especially detailing the harsh reality that faces us on January 3rd. To think the Dems have thought that far ahead (aside from Marc Elias) to ensure it happens as planned would be comical. They have contingency plans in place for everything. If your imagination can come up with a way they’ll try to retain power, there better be a plan for it. There should be zero faith in anything. Absolutely fucking zero faith in any of this to happen as normal.

Democracy is already dead in the US. If there’s a fight underway it is to get it back.

Requiring voters to have ID is not rigging elections.

Saying this since day 1 of this dictatorship… there will be NO midterms,

Already destroyed.

My biggest worry isn’t that they rig the results it is that they just ignore them completely with SCOTUS’ help.

Your vote matters, why else would they be going to all this trouble. Look up progressive candidates that fit your values and vote for them!

The plan I believe is to have DNI Tulsi Gabbard and FBI Director Kash Patel “find” evidence of foreign interference and declare a national security situationship so he can justify a national security emergency.

‘MAGA’ is just the new name for the old segregationist Dixiecrats that are the GOP base and “Cristian nationalism” is just rebranded white supremacy, they do not believe in multi-racial democracy where every persons votes count the same.

The emergency to conservatives who follow fascist ideology is that democracy may continue. They’ll do everything to rig it. And what if the president attempts to halt elections, a thing he cannot do, and the “red” states, states that I’ve already given up their voter roles etc, go along with it and the rest vote?

Oh Smithy, they’ve long since destroyed democracy.

This intro banner is lacking some pertinent information.
Maga vote republican, and it’s the entire GOP that wants to destroy democracy.
In rebuttal, the entire GOP should be reduced to dust, and swept onto the dustheap of history.
EndtheGOP

I literally hate everyone who voted for Trump (or hell, everyone who voted third party). Hope they lose their jerbs, hope their wives leave them, hope they find out that their kids aren’t theirs, and that they end up sleeping in a cardboard box and getting hammered on vanilla extract. No fate could be too horrible for them.

Even though weve been talking about this since like 2016, dems will not understand until its too late… again

Democrats not taking responsibility for not having a primary for the last presidential election.

Imagine thinking democracy in this country hasn’t already been destroyed. Even if we vote in representatives successfully, the GOP has destroyed all checks and balances on power and we basically have a dictatorial executive with complete authority to do whatever he wants.

Corporate America wants stability, gridlock in congress provides that, and therefore it will not allow its puppets in either party to kill the filibuster.
I think they’re going to try to rig things and fail again just like they did in 2020. Trump will be a lame duck and the party will eat itself over the 2028 nomination.

What have the “Good Guys with Guns” indicated they will be willing to do to prevent the destruction of democracy?
