Trump has no power to “decree” that voters must present ID or to end mail-in balloting. But that doesn’t mean he can’t at least try both. Under the Insurrection Act or some other dusty statute, he can declare a state of emergency. Then he can decide that said state permits, nay requires, him to take extraordinary measures. On October 5, say, that might mean outlawing early voting. By October 13, it might mean no mail-in voting. By October 29, a reminder that all voters must present ID to vote. And by Sunday, November 1, two days before the election—an announcement that all these “reasonable” measures have alas failed, and he is now forced, against his will, to postpone the election.


Ive noticed that these guys are trying to start the same moral panic shit among Democratic voters to demotivate them this time around. For example, with Talarico - a key senate seat flip.
It’s definitely going to happen again. So-called moderate trump voters and our own LemLeft have learned nothing.
Shove it up your ass. We tried to save the Democrats from themselves in 2024 and people like you ran static interference so that the Dems could run on “more of the same” and ultimately lose the election.
Funny, I don’t remember seeing you promoting any progressive candidate for the the primaries.
Saw you wokescolding Kamala voters a lot though…
Must just be that you do the first part in communities I’m not in.
My entire comment history is right there buddy. Its all in there. Go take a look instead of relying on your clearly faulty memory.
I love that word. I’m going to take that word.
And again, instead of reacting to your impression of what you think I said, go through my comment history and find examples of that. If you need tools to better access them, I can provide that to you. I’ve got my entire comment history also available in JSON format, if that makes it easier for you, and you also have no excuse. In other words, put the fuck up or shut the fuck up, because I know precisely what I’ve said this entire time, and you are responding to your emotional impression of what I’ve said, not actually what I’ve said.
My criticisms have been explicitly focused on the maneuvers of the party, the Biden campaign, the Harris campaign, and those who shield the parties or the campaigns from criticism
All of this is based on the central thesis I offer, which is:
That its functionally and practically impossible to move an electorate over the course of a campaign which only lasts a couple of months. There are no mechanisms or tools available to campaigns to do so. Focusing critiques on individual voters when there is no function mechanism to change the minds of millions of voters is counter productive and loses you voters. The Harris campaign lost 6 million votes while not understanding this.
The only path to winning an election is to move a candidate to a set of popular enough policy positions they win the majority of factions necessary to capture the electoral college.
Any one saying that voters just need to “do better” while defending or apologizing for Candidates or campaigns with unelectable policy positions is a dangerous provocateur who, by shielding campaigns or politicians from criticism is operating on behalf of the opposition.
If a candidate holds a policy position which will prevent them from winning the election, voting for them isn’t “strategic”; its irrelevant. The only options you have is to move politicians to electable positions. There is no other way to win.
Hit me with some keywords I can use to find the candidate who’s campaign you vocally and regularly supported through the DNC primaries in that JSON dump.
Lol says a lot versus a reply like “I supported Smith and/or Johnson”
Yeah you tried real hard, great fucking job
Y’all wanted to lose the election, so thanks for ensuring that outcome.
