    So far this year, authorities have seized or demanded ballots from elections in four states. Experts fear the trend could throw the midterms into chaos unless courts draw a line.

    Same thing will happen that’s been happening: Authoritarianism. 

    I can’t see there being a way to vote your way out of this.

    Why do you think Trump keeps saying he’s “not worried about the midterms”? The fix is in. I foresee an intentional shit show in November that throws the results entirely into question, as designed by Trump team of traitorous scum. Then when it gets to SCOTUS, they will do what they always do, side with Republicans.

    It’s going to be hard to find any Trump worshipers who don’t support the idea of Trump personally deciding the outcome of all state and national elections. Some may not agree yet. But the programming hasn’t been installed yet. Soon, you will hear all of them chanting the same nonsense slogan when asked this about this topic.

    It’s going to be something like “The Democrats have proven they can’t be trusted with Democracy. So only Trump can decide what is best for America.” or “The People of America spoke when they voted almost unanimously for Trump to return and save America. So Trump’s decisions are the will of all Americans.”

    But dumber and with smaller words. Maybe just a little nub like “Patriots are in control now”.

    Propagandists foreign and domestic will be testing this messaging on the base using social media before deciding on the most effective programming. We’ll be seeing it dropped here in posts that start with one line of in-group signalling, posted by accounts with hidden histories.

  6. Naziism, that’s what happens next. We’re watching a full-mask-off fascist takeover and most of the country is sitting idly because they aren’t personally affected yet, and a minority of the population is cheering it on because they’re monsters. I don’t care how any current MAGA supporter became one, being able to continue supporting it at this point makes each and every one of them a monster. People are already dying and disappearing, but since it’s mostly “the right people” being hurt, these callous cretins are happy.

    He will use the midterms to declare martial law then things will get worse. I don’t see Republicans growing a spine to stop, they’re making too much money staying quiet

  8. Voter suppression. Right there in the open. Really goes to show you that a conspiracy isn’t scandalous when it’s done in the light of day.

    “Just one more, and you’ll never have to vote again.”

    They weren’t warned. Fuckin’ idiots.

  10. No one knows? Plenty of people have been saying that the republicans will steal the midterms, and they have that well underway.

    Really? No one knows what will happen next? Weird. I think they should know. Fatso explained it, clear as day, almost two years ago. america is finished.

    [**Trump tells Christians they won’t have to vote again**](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-tells-christians-they-wont-have-vote-after-this-election-2024-07-27/)
    WASHINGTON, July 27, 2024 (Reuters) – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump told Christians on Friday that if they vote for him this November, “in four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.”

    Religious conservatives love stealing elections and cheating to win.

    Their ideology is so defunct they cannot be expected to win on the merits of their own morality.

  13. TorontoMapleSheeps on

    Elections are rigged across the US. No one knows that will happen next.

    Trump is now running for a third term. No one knows what will happen next.

    Liberals are being sent to camps around the US. No one knows what will happen next.

    Trump has declared an occupation in blue cities across the US. No one knows what will happen next.

  14. What are they doing with them? What is the point- just to look at the boxes of ballots and claim success?

    2027 will see a wave of people fleeing the post-democracy US. A lot of them will be the US’s former intelligentsia. Scientists. Scholars. Medical researchers. Historians. Top engineers. Essayists. Investigative journalists. Anyone whose life’s work is about improving our understanding of reality. This has already started but will massively accelerate. For the puppet masters seeking to destroy the US, everything is going according to plan.

  16. Do what they have been doing, claim they have prof of fraud during the 2020 election and then refuse to present anything. Meanwhile getting a list of who voted for who.

  17. I_love_Hobbes on

    Arizona went through an audit by Nazis and they found MORE votes for Biden.

    All people who are R are apparently idiots and will believe anything.

    I shouldn’t be, but I am completely surprised how many stupid people there are in the US.

  18. I won’t accept the results if Republicans “win” the midterms. It’s rigged.

  19. > Experts fear the trend could throw the midterms into chaos unless courts draw a line.

    Who wants to bet that courts will get around to drawing the line after the midterms?

    Every US election headline now reads like it was generated by an AI trained exclusively on conspiracy thrillers

  21. LilyPogger69 on

    “no one knows” the guy’s had trump 2028 hays for ages. Wake up, democracy died last year.

  22. Signal_Minimum8509 on

    Nothing is going to happen next. The seizure was the point, it’s object was to scare people into not voting.

    Trump’s team has had a look at my ballot a dozen times in six years I’m sure. Fuck you I’m coming back again in November asshole, take another look.

  23. iprefervaping on

    Americans have had 10 years to protest this properly and have missed every step – after Trump’s first impeachment, after COVID and the millions of deaths, when Trump was allowed to go back to Mar a lago, when he was back on the republican ballet, before ICE was formed etc. MAGA now has all its ducks in a row and Americans still think midterms will fix it.

  24. 🍿 🤏😀 no idea what’s going to happen but the next few months are going to be a hell of a shit show

  25. TheDarkHelmet1985 on

    They want to destroy the evidence of their cheating in the last election while trying to blame others for it. Its so foreseeable.

  26. chowderbags on

    “Ballots have been seized”?

    By fucking who, Wired? Do you think maybe that might be some information that’s relevant enough to put in your headline?

    Yeah, yeah, “It’s in the story”. Doesn’t mean you can’t put the relevant info front and center, rather than this mealy mouth shit. And it’s definitely not about “word economy” when you’re including the entirely superfluous “No One Knows What Will Happen Next”. A) I don’t expect anyone to have perfect predictions of the future. B) Clearly Trump’s justice department has some kind of fucking plan, so they at least know what they want to do for the future.

  27. NeatlyCritical on

    I know exactly what will happen, they will send army/police to seize and destroy ballots and intimidate, they will declare a national emergency before the 2028 and say they are canceling elections going forward.

  28. Skullduggery is definitely afoot. I live in CA and our system for mail in ballots usually gets me a text within 2 days that my ballot was received and a few days later that it has been counted. This primary I got no such texts. It’s a mystery where and what has happened to my ballot. And my wife never got hers, despite having called and requested second mailing. Nada. I wont be surprised if the MAGA candidate for governor has a miraculous victory iin a state the Dems usually win by 70% to 30%.

    This is bad. But, we may also want to consider whether *we* actually elected trump ever? We have many good reasons to question whether he won legitimately in both instances. It’s entirely possible that he cheated his way into the presidency as he’s done with most other things in his life. For instance, here’s a discussion of the situation overall that needs to be investigated. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtNyo_bUBpY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtNyo_bUBpY)
