Don’t forget about rigging the voting machines!!

They'll also start a war to remain in power. Fun.

Why do all that when you can just have ICE arrest voters in the queue?

Republicans will burn the country to the ground to remain in power.

Why would they want to do this when each election they have a 50% fair chance of winning? The current system is as perfect for them as it could be, they cycle in power periodically through legal means

He's back in the fold, AFAIK.

At risk of sounding like I'm dick riding, Vance has all the cunning and charisma to fill the power vacuum. He's just lacking that "too stupid to talk to" quality that most Maga voters find relatable, but given the spotlight he could probably hit those notes they like.

It kind of is good Kirk got slimed because he's the only other I could think of that did all the poses they like and was also too stupid to be told anything.

I think the Democrats should fight fire with fire.

Push for Dwayne Johnson or Taylor Swift as the Democratic nominee.

Or better yet listen to your fucking voters for a change.

Sometimes they can't even win when Trump is on the ballot. Seems more accurate to say that they can't win unless a woman is on the democratic ticket.

Donald course-corrects daily. Today he’s the peace president, tomorrow we invade Aberbaijan and Albania.

Figure out how to lie more effectively

The fact that they have a golden opportunity right now convinces me of the fact that they will fumble the absolute fuck out of it. They already went to war against mamdani. Any progress will be in spite of the D party.

Dems can make some huge gains if they have a working class message. Plan on holding Trump/ICE accountable for their actions and not be Israel simps. It isn’t hard.

you are assuming they are good people and not a bunch of fascists like their peers

I mean, yes...but I also see this as "The vampire party could be so much more popular if they came out in favor of a bloodsucking ban."

They likely have their own objectives beyond getting elected. They might even prefer being in the losing position if "they are our only hope and we all gotta donate real hard".

Yeah, I looked into it, they are saying these two specific seats were held by Republicans for decades. I've seen reports of 30 and 40 years.

Maybe doing stuff like stealing away things such as direct file for taxes, convenient and/or early voting, not to mention causing kids and the elderly to STARVE, and fucking up airplane travel will make them all the more delighted with the conservative "movement" (as in bowel) and the Confederate Party...

I mean, other than racism, or being completely checked out, or being in the centimillionaire+ tax bracket and in it just to lower your taxes....just why in the fuck would you ever vote for this shitty party? They always make everything much worse.

I will be ecstatic the day he dies but the traitorous orange paedo being locked up in prison while seeing his cohorts and family going through the ringer is even more delicious...then him dying of an excruciatingly painful incurable cancer would be the cherry on top.

I say let 'em keep thinking that.

Right, but they're in power and power having that thought pattern is scary if you're a targeted member of a minority group (Ask the LGBT population about the similarities between 1930s Germany's stance on the LGBT and today's America's stance on the same).

No. A presidential election has never been postponed ... EVER. There were elections even during the Civil War.

Trump can try this route to stay in office... but he will not be president and his wartime rule will only be as strong as the guards around him. He will become a domestic threat to the Constitution if he tries to stay in office unelected.

He keeps trying to start a war. Other countries see it for what it is and mostly ignore it. Iran, Venezuela, and now Nigeria.

My money was on Trump to start a war with Iran in March or April 2026, so things were ramped up before the elections. If the expected wartime popularity bump happens then just win the election, otherwise cancel then due to war reasons.

But I guess it's looking more like wat against Venezuela or possibly Nigeria? 🙈

I really hope we’re even allowed to have an election in 2026.

As long as the choice is a binary option between red and blue i wouldn't be much concerned about the government taking away elections

Same.

Any race where the parties were listed? Double digits in favor of the D. The only close race was the school board where party affiliations were specifically not listed for Reasons and you had to check the local party website to see who believed in democracy. And even that had the lone chud lose by about 5%.

My locals aren't the most representative since we are pretty solidly blue, but the large numbers of libertarians in town tend to keep it a close race. Not so much this year.

As much as I want to believe that, there’s 36% of the country that would suck off trump and another 15% that are brain dead and couldn’t decide between Kamala and Hitler 2.0.

The mouth breathers are used to that type of shit.

It's the same hell and brimstone they've been fed from a young age so as stupid as it sounds to you, they are steeped in it.

Since the 2024 election I’ve been constantly wondering what the event would be that should trigger all out riot to restore democracy. The answer I always come up with is cancelled/sham election.

But why would they do the thing they've already been doing? There's no precedent!
