      Where are all the people in 2016 who were saying „he can’t do that much damage!“

      > “Mail-in ballots are crooked as hell. We’re the only country in the world that use this type of mail-in ballot, the only country in the world,” Trump said at a rally in Rome, Georgia, on Thursday. “I’ll tell you what, Republicans have to win this one. We’ll never lose a race for fifty years, we won’t lose a race.”

      We all know they’re going to try and cheat, steal and subvert the will of the people in the upcoming midterms. They’ve been broadcasting that for a year. We also have to be thankful that the entire administration is full of incompetent buffoons who couldn’t find their way out of a paper bag. And that the states control their elections.

    3. I turn on the news every morning with a whispered prayer, “ Please let today be the day…:

    4. Get rid of him. Get rid of him right fucking now, Congress. Enough is enough.

      Yet I remain undeterred. These tactics may work on the feeble minded, it isn’t gonna work for me. I’m hopefully not even close to alone in that. We need to overwhelm the midterms to show we are not who these crazy assholes are painting our country as. I’m fucking tired of defending decency as if it’s a damn weird option. It should be first. Let’s neuter this orange turd bucket in November.

    6. You can’t hack mail-in ballots, not even Elon Musk. Of course they don’t want them

      Every country int eh world uses mail in ballots safely.
      Hell, just look at in the USA and you can see, plainly, that there is so little fraud it is a non-event.

      His constant lies and dog whistles NEED to be called out.

    8. Mail in ballots are as secure as any mail. Glad to know I’m not supposed to trust the US Postal Service.

      I“m Canadian and while I lived abroad I voted for years by mail in ballot.

      What a lying sack of shit.

      Boomers always be fuckin‘ those that come after. Guess we’re going to have to deregulate nursing homes to fix this.

    11. If America survives this as a democracy, they need to dismantle the Republican party, it has shown that it is a threat to democracy and the American people.

    12. RosieBaby75 on

      Why would y’all vote in a president who already tried to steal an election. This was entirely foreseeable by anyone with eyes and/or ears 😭 Mike Pence sacrificed his career for nothing.

    13. People, please take this seriously. When a political party is taking measures to consolidate power and manipulate elections to retain it indefinitely, it’s extremely difficult to get them out of power.

      The Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) in Mexico held power for ***71 years***, and its iron grip over Mexico began similarly with a populist leader like Donald Trump. Unlike the Republican party, the PRI adopted different ideologies over the years to retain power, but there are many parallels to our current situation in the U.S., especially as Republicans are showing no intent of ever ceding power again.

      >The PNR was founded in 1929 by [Plutarco Elías Calles](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plutarco_El%C3%ADas_Calles), Mexico’s paramount leader and self-proclaimed *Jefe Máximo* (Supreme Chief) of the [Mexican Revolution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Revolution). The party was created with the intent of providing a political space in which all the surviving leaders and combatants of the Mexican Revolution could participate to solve the severe political crisis caused by the assassination of president-elect [Álvaro Obregón](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%81lvaro_Obreg%C3%B3n) in 1928. Although Calles himself fell into political disgrace and was exiled in 1936, the party continued ruling Mexico until 2000, changing names twice until it became the PRI.

      >The PRI governed Mexico as a *de-facto* [one-party state](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-party_state) for the majority of the twentieth century. Not only were all Presidents of the Republic members of the PRI, all members of the [Senate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senate_of_Mexico) belonged to the PRI until 1976, and all state governors were also from the PRI until 1989. Throughout the seven decades that the PRI governed Mexico, the party used [corporatism](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporatism), [co-option](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Co-option), [electoral fraud](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electoral_fraud), and political repression to maintain political power. While Mexico benefited from an [economic boom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_miracle) which improved the quality of life of most people and created political stability during the early decades of the party’s rule, issues such as inequality, corruption, and a lack of political freedoms gave rise to growing opposition against the PRI. Amid the [global climate of social unrest in 1968](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protests_of_1968) dissidents, primarily students, protested during the [Olympic games held in Mexico City.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1968_Summer_Olympics) Tensions escalated, culminating in the [Tlatelolco massacre](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tlatelolco_massacre), in which the [Mexican Army](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Army) killed hundreds of unarmed demonstrators in Mexico City. Subsequently, a series of economic crises beginning in the 1970s affected the living standards of much of the population.

      >Throughout its nine-decade existence, the party has represented a [very wide array of ideologies](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_tent), typically following from the policies of the [President of the Republic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_Mexico). Starting as a center-left party during the [Maximato](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximato), it moved leftward in the 1930s during the presidency of [Lázaro Cárdenas](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A1zaro_C%C3%A1rdenas), and gradually shifted to the right starting from 1940 after Cárdenas left office and [Manuel Ávila Camacho](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manuel_%C3%81vila_Camacho) became president. PRI administrations controversially adopted [neoliberal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoliberalism) economic policies during the 1980s and 90s, as well as during [Enrique Peña Nieto](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enrique_Pe%C3%B1a_Nieto)’s presidency (2012–2018). In 2024, the party formally renounced neoliberalism and rebranded itself as a „center-left“ party.[^([17])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institutional_Revolutionary_Party#cite_note-17)

      >In 1990, Peruvian writer [Mario Vargas Llosa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Vargas_Llosa) famously described Mexico under the PRI as being „the perfect dictatorship“, stating: „I don’t believe that there has been in Latin America any case of a system of dictatorship which has so efficiently recruited the [intellectual milieu](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligentsia), bribing it with great subtlety. The perfect dictatorship is not communism, nor the [USSR](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USSR), nor [Fidel Castro](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fidel_Castro); the perfect dictatorship is Mexico. Because it is a camouflaged dictatorship.“[^([18])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institutional_Revolutionary_Party#cite_note-terra-18)[^([19])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institutional_Revolutionary_Party#cite_note-19) The phrase became popular in Mexico and around the world until the PRI fell from power in 2000.

      Evil incarnate and a felon and Sexual assaulter.

      Those that praise will fall.

    15. They hate the fact that it’s pretty easy to vote with mail and ballots. They can’t create as many obstructions for people to cast their votes. Plus it’s harder for them to rig the machines that people cast their votes on. Plus mail in votes guarantee that there is a paper trail because people are literally using paper for their votes. If you don’t trust the machine you can simply run the paper through another machine. This is why they hate mail in ballots. And when they talk about voter ID that’s already taken care of. People who register to vote are already challenged and verified if they are a US citizen when they are registered into the system and their signature is recorded. It passes all of the qualifications and doesn’t have any of the bullshit that Trump says. He’s a fucking liar and he knows it.

      It is of utmost importance that, if the save act passes that we all as progressives, centrist-moderate and independents are showing up to vote in person and shove it down their throats

      Here are some facts about voter fraud. In the 25 to 40 year history that the Heritage Foundation has been studying voter fraud in the most hotly contested states, there are less than 200 total examples. There is no evidence voter fraud has had an impact on any election. Instances of voter fraud measure up to less than .0001% of total ballots cast.

      Here are some facts about voter participation. We have yet to have a Presidential election where 66% of eligible voters vote. With exception for the last two cycles, there were no elections where over 60% of eligible voters voted. Midterm elections are even more stark, we have yet to have 50% turnout in those.

      The voter fraud issue is a canard. The real issue with voting is apathy and suppression. And this insistence on pretending the former is real is a means to an end of enacting the latter for a party that has no real ideas.

    18. For Trump, anytime he or his minions lose, it’s because something was rigged.

      If Trump played 1v1 against prime Jordan and lost, it’d be because the game was rigged too.

    19. GreyBeardEng on

      If they are going to cheat at every election for the next 50 years then it’s time to tear it all down.

    20. AThousandBloodhounds on

      It’s why Trump’s a big fan of Orban. There’s an authoritarian playbook for democratic institutions, including a free press, and Orban has successfully pulled it off.

      I just can’t believe he was the guy that did it. Soft pudding made into an orange mold 5″9 tall. No service, no hard work, handed a million dollars, epitome of the opposite of American dream and supported by buffoons selling their souls. The fall of America, never thought I’d see it.

    22. CzarTwilight on

      Good thing he’s going to show all the evidence of fraud that totally happened when it was apparently stolen from him now that he’s back in power, right? Same with those files he had no part in since he was completely exonerated according to himself right? And we’ll see some accountability and prosecutions right?

    23. This is serious and egregious, so I don’t mean to make light of it. BUT, this is typical bluster and hyperbole from him. He knows he won’t be on this earth much longer, and he seriously doesn’t care about anything but himself(and maybe his family). He doesn’t have a 50 year plan. But he can seriously wreck things for the rest of us for a long time. Something must be done.
