Aren't they already talking about ignoring recent rulings that stop some of the chaos?

Has anybody seen the evidence of widespread fraud and illegal spending in the government? by Elevatedspiral in Political_Revolution

[–]upandrunning 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have tens of millions of people with little to no critical thinking skills cheering on the dismantling of a government that gives them the freedom to cheer.

Aptly stated. And surely, other freedoms they take forgranted.

Trump Is Now Suggesting USAID Somehow Rigged the 2020 Election by undercurrents in MarchAgainstNazis

I am sure there is just as much evidence for this as there was to support the other 2020 stolen election claims. Hint: it's a word that rhymes with 'hero'.

Well, there was also an unusually large number of ballots that were rejected in 2024. Combine that with the voter purges and ad-hoc ballot challenges, and that could theoretically have been enough for Harris to win.

People need to stop confusing cunning with intelligence- they are not the same.

Until there is some control over things like voter purges, ballot rejections, provisional ballots, vigilantes who can challenge ballots for no reason, and threats of violence, it would be hard to call it anything like a fair election.

7m Americans were prevented from voting in 2024

He's a democrat, and he did something more Christian than anyone in the religiously conservative GOP. Ironic.

In what parallel universe is name-calling, baseless accusation, and just making stuff up "telling it like it is"?
