The courts will not save us from Trump. If he is defeated, it will happen at the ballot box. Full stop.
Avatar
no, not full stop, because he won't accept a ballot box defeat and we already know that.
Avatar
and sadly somewhere between 40 and 45 percent of voters still support him. As long as that doesn't change and the GOP stays in line behind him he will be a threat.
Avatar
my only point is that defeating him at the ballot box is necessary but not sufficient if there is any other lesson from 2020.

This. We have to beat him at the ballot box, but then be prepared for his second insurrection when we do

They are in a cult. It’s impossible to reason with his supporters, they do not respond to facts. I’ve been trying to jostle the ones I know loose for almost a decade now. Was hoping that the courts would follow the laws on the books but they aren’t going to. Unfortunate but predictable.

And even sadder, that base is not going to change their minds at this late date. In hindsight, the time to have called him out on demagoguery was when he kept having all those rallies even after winning—I mean, who does that?—still not sure why this did not get better analysis/more scrutiny. Sadly.

It’s very telling though that billionaires are not lining up to refill the RNC’s coffers.

He won’t, but Jan 6 Redux will go nowhere.
Avatar
in all honesty it'll probably look a lot different than Jan 6 did with a lot more of the violence occurring on local and state levels

Well, the only "6" that will matter at that point are clearly in Trump's pocket, so...

Except it won't be at the ballot box. He's already been defeated there twice.

The only thing that can stop him isn’t a ballot, but it is a word with all the same consonants.

Like I’m seriously shocked that his arteries have not given out. He’s in terrible shape to begin with plus the stress of all these court cases and losing his fortune. It’s a miracle he hasn’t had an aneurysm.

Everyone just says to vote and doesn't say anything about what happens after the election when Trump attempts insurrection #2 instead of conceding If Trump respected elections, so much of this wouldn't be a problem right now
Avatar
Which is very funny because he was defeated at the ballot box and committed a bunch of crimes in the process once already.
Avatar
Exactly. We already fired him and he’s stalking the nation like a serial killer with a case of gonorrhea. But we’ve learned that America has only been protected from being conquered by its geography, not its institutions because they are selling us out hard and for a washed up game show host

What will save us from Biden?

Weird, I sorta remember that already happening. 🧐

Crazy that the democrat solution for beating the Cheeto at the ballot box is to hold everyone hostage under the barrel of Joe Biden AGAIN

"there's been a great fraud, I won, they cheated, whaa"

And the sooner voters who say they care about a future democratic America understand this, the better.

Why the fuck do you think this is worth saying??
Avatar
And we can't fully count on that either, even if the vote goes that way.
Avatar
Please begin preparing for the "secret third option", just in case
Avatar
The ballot box won't help us either because the electoral college still exists. If Trump manages to lose the popular vote, but win the electoral college, I think there has to be a wave of civil disobedience that will show the tepid Democrats that this cannot stand. We have to shut this fucker down

Can't say they didn't have plenty of chances. Same with Congress.

Turn out for Super Tuesday not looking great.

The only question is, if Trump is defeated at the ballot box, will it matter in the face of an illegitimate court moving heaven and earth to elevate him?
Avatar
We need to give Biden and the Dems control of the WH, senate and house. Then Biden needs to stack the courts and we need to get rid of the electoral count and send the rescumlicans to go hang out with the Whigs
Avatar
And is there any honest person left to certify the ballot?
Avatar
Pretty sure a brick would be more effective than either of those options.

Do you honestly believe this lol

Given what the SC just did...

I might have been skeptical that voting might be enough until I saw Ohio voters enshrine abortion rights into their state constitution in one of the reddest, most corrupt states in the US.

May I introduce you to the electoral college
