Need to get ahold of the steering wheel to drive the car. Back seat drivers have little influence.

How does one get rid of any type of voting, without controlling the legislature, or the ability to get public voters to agree per vote count?

It’s a game the GOP can’t win because of the bogus voter registration rolls.

We have to simultaneously fight it and use it, yes.

Such is the position we allowed ourselves to be out in.

Stupid.

The right needs to do whatever the left is doing, and do it better. The time to play nice is long, long over.

Why don’t we become masters of changing state laws to outlaw vote by mail and require voting only on election day and only after presentation of valid id?

And perhaps in ten years or so, that may come to fruition. However, what is more likely to happen is that, while we twiddle our thumbs over stuff that isn't going to do a damn thing for 2024, the left is going to sweep elections by all means necessary. Eventually, the talk of outlawing vote by mail will simply go away.

The way to success is to hold state legislatures and local authorities at election time accountable for not or selectively enforcing election laws.

In a Democrat-controlled state there is no way to "hold state legislatures accountable" by voting. That is the entire point of Democrat vote fraud.

Other methods are required.

The fact that the GOP (Trump) is actually advocating this is the best evidence yet that we have lost this country.

Yes I know that. I was talking about states\jurisdictions with gop majorities or at least competitive. There’s been too many examples of complacent gop majorities doing nothing. They can be replaced.

The RATS get down and dirty, we should fight them in the muddy trenches.

Yeah, sure, and let’s start bribing minorities with promises of entitlements, and hey, while we’re at it, let’s open the border and just give amnesty to anyone who wants to come here, because we can probably buy a few votes that way too.

“If the GOP fails to use every available tactic to win elections, it is destined to lose.”

Cheating is an available tactic. How about we use that one?

“It’s not a defense to say - You didn’t do it to that guy!”

Actually it is. It’s called the “selective prosecution” defense.

Your proposal is acceptable.

Really?

So, if I am caught speeding and another car speeds by not apprehended. Assuming I have it documented I can use that to get out of the ticket?

Can’t the prosecutor say “Prosecutorial discretion”?

Whatever works.

The Democrats have shown us the way.

We can promise all kinds of goodies. We don't actually need to deliver them. See the current proposals for "Reparations" in California. Five million bucks a head. No, that money will never be paid, but the show will bring in the voters. And the grifters on the committee will make bank.

Your postings are an absolute gold mine of practical suggestions and "modest proposals". I appreciate the irony in which they are written.

I've got nothing. Maybe we will see the whole system collapse. Politics follows the culture. MOAR voting is certainly not going to fix it.
