      He should be impeached for just calling for federalization of elections.

      >The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof

      Big deal. You can say whatever you like, but none of the Repub leadership will actually do anything to stop him.

      trump is shitting out „yeah dems won race (x) but they cheated“ more and more, and no journalist challenges him, because the journalists are shit

      When a top GOP senator says „no“ to nationalizing elections, it shows even Republican laders know that elections aren’t a power play button, they’re in the Constitution.

      For now. Wait til he starts getting threatened by Trump’s goons. He’ll do a 180, like they always do.

      State run elections are one of the last bastions of protection against a fascist takeover. When that is eroded we are done.

      I can guarantee you that if Trump decided to use ICE to try to forcibly seize control of elections from Blue states, Thune would do absolutely nothing about it.

      Good luck getting a constitutional amendment to make that change. Congress step up and do your job! Tell the executive branch NO!

      “I’m a big believer in decentralized and distributed power. And I think it’s harder to hack 50 election systems than it is to hack one.“

      That’s rather telling, given the person who is suggesting there be only one.

      It’s unconstitutional and downright an indication that your party is lame when you openly declare affecting process because you know you have to rig the process to win. GOP should be ashamed.

      Once again, we’re seeing the party fracture over him.

      They can see his power and influence declining.

      It’s not the prosecution and jailing of him that it needs to be, but I’ll take division as a factor to stop his influence bit by bit.

      If Trump hadn’t shown that they planned to cheat, nationalized elections would actually be pretty logical. As an outsider it’s weird that some states have wildly different ways of representing their voters. The idea of the party with 51% of the votes getting 100% of the representatives is ridiculous.

      Never allow sane washing.

      “Oh it’s just Trump being Trump he’s not serious… derp derp derp…”

      Reminder: there is no bottom for the GOP.

      They are ALL complicit each and every day Trump remains in power. The danger he poses for our national security, economy, and population is alarming and has been since day 1 of his first term. 

      It is a testament to the alarming brainwashing of MAGA that this shit continues despite the entire world wondering wtf we’re doing.

      He’s already laying the groundwork with the seizure of the 2020 ballots. He’ll „find“ the votes, declare himself vindicated, then push again for federal control of elections.

      woah is that…. Some sort of spine like object? In an invertebrate? this is staggering.

      Republicans better wake the fuck up. Because at this rate your either against theNazi dicks or your with them, and the US citizens are voting them out, and after treason charges.

    30. ReactionAsleep on

      If a passport and birth certificate don’t save you from ICE arrest, why would they prove your citizenship for voting?

      JFC, we warned people Trump would do this.

      They all said we were being dramatic. Everyday he out-dictators himself. It’s not even subtle. Anyone with half a brain knows what he’s doing. This is how democracy dies
