For a lot of you thinking that we will remove this clown in the mid-terms or in the next elections - understand there will be no elections. Do you expect a felon to peacefully transfer power? I won’t be surprised if he declares the martial law (which he is already publicly talking about), call the elections fake or a good number of dumb reasons to stay in the office.

Speak now, or forever hold your peace. Flood the streets now or forever remain scared.

    We’ve seen elections fudged with before, so what’s to stop them from doing it better next time?

    Vid I found that looks at data sets from the most recent election and compares to previous races. The last couple months of office for rump and leon alongside some odd patterns in the election data make me agree with op a lot here.

    Oh I think there will be elections. It’s just that the people who “count the votes”, so to speak, have changed. Stalin famously had something to say about that.

      With how decentralized America’s vote counting is, it will be exceedingly hard to do that, and impossible to do it quietly. Don’t take the black pill just yet.

        It would admittedly be harder in blue states, but reds are a shoe-in for these expected shenanigans. there is also mounting evidence that purple states have already been compromised, leading to bogus counts in 2024.

        I’m by no means saying to throw our hands up in despair tho! Just pointing out we need to fight harder than many realize to push for actual fair elections in the future. Resistance is NOT futile!
