President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order to create a nationwide list of verified eligible voters, a move that is sure to draw legal challenges as the president continues to demand further restrictions on voting ahead of this year's midterm elections.
If the US has free and fair and honest elections, the Republicans will lose their majorities, therefore Trump (with the brazenly dishonest support of the corrupt and compromised conservatives of the Supreme Court) will see to it that the US does not have free and fair and honest elections.
Pretty much, but as others have pointed out elsewhere, it’s difficult for him to rig the midterms for a number of reasons. It is entirely possible that both the House and the Senate will lose their majorities, even with all these obvious efforts to rig and cheat.
How is this not election interference? I mean even proposing a law to interfere is interfering. I know that existing laws have very specific wording, so my question is, why the fuck did this not cover it. It’s insane how obviously unconstitutional this is to a degree that these fuckers should be imprisoned for even the intent to make this an EO.
You’re making the incorrect assumption that Trump is beholden to the law.
Laws only matter if someone enforces them.
He may be immune to laws, but he throws people under the bus left and right. I’ll take those small Ws when they come
Im not convinced. It was shown fairly conclusively that there was no significant voter fraud in the most recent election, and trump still won. Yes, there was some, namely the whole musk thing, but it wasnt that impactful. The issue is that there is nothing to vote for. Democrats are controlled opposition, simple as. A vote for democrats is a vote for delaying fascism, not a vote against fascism. So many people sat out the last election because democrats refuse to budge on the genocidal tendancies, and theres no reason to believe that they will attempt to do any better this time around because thats not how controlled opposition works. If we had even one serious candiate, they would easily dominate both sides of the political spectrum. But that would directly hurt the interests of the powers that be.
At the end of the day, it all boils down to whether youre willing to die on the hill of capitalism. Its a failed system, and unless the US decides to get with the times and become the ungovernable intollerant left, then the US as a country will burn within the next 30 years.
