Wait till Trump puts RFK Jr in charge to gut the FDA, CDC & HHS…
Ugh. 4 years to fix this with basic structural changes.
Declare the only valid mechanisms for challenging elctoral results are the courts.
Create dedicated judicial panels for handling electoral result challenges. Give them tight rules of evidence.
Abolish individual electors and declare ecah state simply send a certified electoral vote count to Congress.
SLAPP style escrow punishments for frivolous challenges.
So many things we could do to force all complaints through channels of our choosing.
Instead this is just ripe for backroom shenanigans and political demagoguery free of actual substance and merit.
There’s only one way to end this shit and prevent a shooting war.
Life in prison for election crimes. The MAGA asswipes are all talk. Just watch them cry like bitches when they’re sentenced to a couple of decades. Then imagine them shitting themselves knowing they’ll spend the rest of their lives behind bars, their bodies buried in a fucking prison yard, forgotten by everyone they know. Enough of this bullshit already.
Once treated as a mere formality, Trump’s attempt to stay in power after losing the 2020 election turned electors like Wetzel into a potential hinge point for the outcome of the election.
Oh, look. An unhinged hinge point.
Between that and the clownshoe who bragged on Reddit about intercepting tenants’ ballots to vote for TFG, we’re setting new records in Teh Stoopid almost every day.
From abc news…
Fact check: Trump, allies push allegations of election ‘cheating’ and misconduct in Pennsylvania
It was MAGA that burned ballot drop boxes and that MAGA kid threatening elderly voters with his machete
Donnie, its not the democrats threatening voters with violence. Its not democrats burning ballots. Even the Supreme court took away the vote from thousands of citizens in Virginia. So donnie, you have no right to whine and complain. So grow the fuck up and act like an adult
I’ll take the other side of that bet at just about any odds you care to name.
“I am shocked, shocked to find that there is gambling market manipulation going on here.”
“Your ill-gotten gains, sir.”
“Oh, thank you very much. Clear the room at once!”
As naïve as this sounds, I often believe that one’s own sense of honor and basic conscience would prevent people from doing shit like that.
And then I already see where I went wrong.
It’s remarkable, isn’t it? This is some basic “everyone should have learned this in kindergarten at the latest” kind of stuff.
In fact, if you assembled a random group of kindergartners, and put them in charge, they would govern with greater wisdom and compassion and fairness than that former guy.
Except for nap times, when even the libertarians (“that government governs best which governs least”) ought to be happy, or as close to it as it is in their natures to be.
ETA: It might be a little strange to have Blippi and Thomas the Tank Engine be featured guests of honor at the SOTU, but compared to some recent performances, I could get used to it pretty quickly.
Hope springs … … … … sometimes

Very sad to say but honor and conscience have been killed by ETTD. There are a few of us left who have not been warped by that goddamned felon. It is too bad his crimes cannot be traced to warfare. If it could he would be named a traitor
Remarkable (though not the least surprising) that there isn’t a single sentence in Trump’s statement that is even remotely true.
Not just untruth, but antitruth. The opposite of truth. The antithesis of truth. Everything he ascribes to his opponents, he does himself. Every virtue he claims for himself, he openly despises.
If only his gaslighting could be used as fuel we could send his ass to mars with musk with it only.
