“More importantly, if politicians no longer fear being voted out of office for their heinous actions, true monsters are born.”
You’ll have to be crooked to get elected.
No one will believe the vote. But, as long as the media keeps pumping out articles telling us there is no fraud...except for just a tiny amount...everything is ok.
I agree. If the deep state gets away with this, our elections will look like Venezuela and shortly after that our economy will look like Venezuela.
"Anyone up for battle to free our country?"
47% are absolutely not.
Of the other 53%, maybe one in ten would be willing to risk all for it. Mostly just true patriot Boomers.
History loves to repeat itself...
We ARE in big trouble.
>Anyone up for battle to free our country?
Sure
100% agree.
The Republicans I’ve talked to since the election are angry and awoke. It’s depressing to think that we will never win another Presidential election again. The American Republic is dead. Everything we learned in school about Grorge Washington and the Founding Fathers, dead. They stole it from us. If we can’t protect our Republic for our kids, they’re going to say, we better register Democratic, it’s the only way to fit in with the new technological economic oligarch overlords, otherwise you’ll be blacklisted.
More importantly, if politicians no longer fear being voted out of office for their heinous actions, true monsters are born.
Some of these governors are evidence of that.
If Americans Can No Longer Trust Our Elections, We’re In Big Trouble
Both sides guaranteed that trust in the 2020 election results would be impossible. Regardless of who won half the country would never accept the results as legitimate. Had Trump won then the Democrats would be claiming that he won through voter suppression. A Biden win means the Republicans claim he won through voter fraud. It was inevitable and the loss of faith in the election process is probably permanent.
“More importantly, if politicians no longer fear being voted out of office for their heinous actions, true monsters are born.”
“Some of these governors are evidence of that.”
Mine is Gestapo Gretchen Whitmer.
Now, for Thanksgiving, she ‘ordered’ that no more than two different households gather together. A Republican state rep is now beginning the impeachment process.
We’re there, we’re in trouble.
Wonder if the SCOTUS know about that nugget of news and what will they do about it?.
“If”, Kemosabe?
Get voters up to speed with the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers, particularly it’s limited power to appropriate taxes.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Misguided, low-information voters have abused their 17A power by unthinkingly using it to elect corrupt lawmakers who then politically bypass the Constitution’s Article V amendment process by stealing state powers to make unconstitutional domestic policy imo.
Get rid of the 16th Amendment too.
Trust has been gone for some time. 2020 was a chance to begin rebuilding trust.
Nope.
It’s gone.
To get it back, we ALL need to show ID at the polls and vote on paper ... with both/all parties participating and observing the counting.
Isn’t it preposterous that some places wouldn’t allow observers? And they wonder why we don’t trust elections....
Many establishment Republicans and party insiders are happy to move on from Trump and have touted the good night other Republican candidates had.
Susan Collins holding her seat but President Trump losing doesn't do much for me, as Mark Steyn said.
If the Dems have destroyed faith in the electoral system, which will be the case if Biden is certified, there is going to be hell to pay.
