This was the plan from the beginning. Don’t act surprised now or when there are armed men at polling stations on Election Day.

Welp.
We lived long enough to see America become a 3rd world shithole.
Edit: Don't care if I get banned. This traitor's head needs to be on a pike.
Statements like this make me think you haven't been paying attention.
Always was.
🌎🧑🚀🔫👨🚀
Never bought into the whole America #1. Maybe in the Olympics.
Anyway, good luck, 'Murica. Time to fight or die for realsies.
We were never #1 but we weren't a 3rd world shithole like it's rapidly becoming. I get people hate us and want to be edgy but its just not remotely the case

I never thought in my lifetime the United States would need "International Observers".
Yeah that's for countries that don't respect democracy, not.... Oh nevermind.
I'm not sure the last time I saw the phrase international observers offhand (I am sure it's happened but just missed it) but they are definitely needed in that country. They seem to be degrading themselves to third world, in function if not by cold war meaning.
Umm excuse me. Who the hell do you think you are calling us a third world. That label belongs to shit whole countries didn’t you hear our lord and DT say so about another country. How dare you accuse us of being like THEM.
Okay I can only act like that so much before I start to vomit. All jokes aside we are more in line with a 4th world (even if there is no such thing) instead of a 3rd world. I still can believe this motherfucker got elected TWICE.
Can't win because you're shit? Cheat.
- Republican Party Saying
i think it's so funny how americans think they live in a democracy while one guy just fires whomever he wants.
To be fair, a democracy is normally a system where the people elect a smaller group of representives to make decisions for them.
I don't think any country has implemented a full direct democracy where the entire population votes on everything.
But not just anyone.... The court said he couldn't fire that guy from the fed, cause that's clearly the only important thing that the president needs oversight on /s. Despite the fact that he's destroying the economy other ways. It's all fucking ridiculous
Yeah we in the rest of the world call that a "dictatorship" m'dudes.
It was a lot easier to believe the illusion before the Orange Don.

Drump is one of the most hated presidents in US history, seriously none of this will work out in the favor of the Republican party. Fuel shortages start soon, all thanks to Trump's economy.
Really interested to know why nobody near this guy has any spine whatsoever.

he's setting himself up for a coup from a general, at this point it could really happen
As long as he does the coup really fast, he can turn around and claim that it was all executive actions for which he has immunity from any potential crimes.
They're not even going to pretend to count the votes, are they?
Just a reminder billionaires and private equity bought the voting machine companies like Dominion. All of them.

Fired the Democrat, but "allowed the Republican to resign". That is some petty shit. Not that it surprises me coming from Trump and the hairs he has hanging on to his balls like DeWitt.
Can't wait to see how much phantom voter fraud his administration uncovers exclusively in states run by people Trump personally doesn't like. With no mention of how they know there is any fraud to begin with since it seems like they have fired everyone on the Federal side that had any direct insight into elections with this announcement.
I'm sure someone in the media will get right on that line of thought when the time comes. /s

This is it. His big move. It's all out in the open now and the endgame is midterms. C'mon citizens of all stripes, choose neighbourhood reps to watch and video all the polling booths on election day. You'll need that insurance.
Dude is trying to steal the next election and install himself as king, amd we're all just shrugging our shoulders. Let's see how that works out for us.
If anyone has the chance to kill him, they should absolutely kill him.
I know that probably violates some terms of use or whatever, but it is my political opinion and is based on established American political thoery.

Thanks SCOTUS!
This right here is the final straw. Cancelling the independence of federal agencies will turn this nation into a capitalist MAGA shithole faster than anything else he's done.
I used to believe that we needed to add 4 seats to SCOTUS, but I no longer believe that. Now I believe that we need to add at least 20 seats to SCOTUS, with rolling term limits. The count shouldn't be so close that one bad faith president can negatively manipulate policy for the next century. It should include rolling term limits, so every president gets to appoint a few, but not enough to steer the direction of the court.
We have to strengthen the independence of the three branches of government, and this is how we do it for SCOTUS.
