Did you practice looking in the mirror trying to say that with a straight face? Leftist America is at a depraved point of no return.The man was not content with trying to overthrow democracy, he wanted the kind of power possessed by two of his political role models: Putin and Kim, the latter of who he said "we fell in love", despite him being the worlds worst dictator.
You think this was just an aberration, and it would go away with his election loss? Hardly. Battleground states will cheat their way to Republican victories in the immediate future.
The potential for far-right Republicans to reshape the election systems of major battleground states is growing much closer to reality.
As the halfway point nears of a midterm year that is vastly friendlier to Republicans, the party’s voters have nominated dozens of candidates for offices with power over the administration and certification of elections who have spread falsehoods about the 2020 presidential contest and sowed distrust in American democracy.
The only way to restore trust, these candidates say, is by electing them.
In Michigan, Pennsylvania and now Nevada, Republican voters have elevated candidates who owe their political rise to their amplification of doubts about Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s victory, and who are now vying in elections for governor, secretary of state and attorney general — offices that will hold significant sway over the administration of the 2024 presidential election in critical swing states.
The rise of election deniers is far from over. Primary contests coming later this month in Colorado and in early August in Arizona and Wisconsin will provide more clarity on the depth of Republican voters’ desire to rally behind candidates devoted to the false idea that the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald J. Trump.
With Republicans widely predicted to make gains in November, it is possible that 2023 will bring newly installed far-right officials willing to wield their influence to affect election outcomes and a possible Supreme Court ruling that could give state legislatures unchecked power over federal elections. Even some Republican candidates and officials who for a time defended the 2020 results as legitimate have begun to question whether Mr. Biden’s victory was on the level.
“We are in a dangerous place at the moment,” said Ben Berwick, the counsel for Protect Democracy, a nonpartisan group dedicated to resisting authoritarianism. “There is a substantial faction in this country that has come to the point where they have rejected the premise that when we have elections, the losers of the elections acknowledge the right of the winner to govern.”

Republicans have long attacked teachers, and worked against them, especially in terms of their pay, making sure that the base remains uneducated. Nothing the GOP fears more than educated voters.
Odd that it's the DNC that considers something as innocuous and mundane as an accurate voter database an "existential threat"The man was not content with trying to overthrow democracy, he wanted the kind of power possessed by two of his political role models: Putin and Kim, the latter of who he said "we fell in love", despite him being the worlds worst dictator.

and just like that you win the biggest projection of the day,,None of you Trumpists bothered to discuss that some key battleground states all have some election deniers, or all election deniers, running for Governor, Attorney General, and Secretary of State. The Republican Party will not rest until they can steal all federal elections.

When a red state house turns blue, you will see the constitution tested. All the incumbent republican has to do is claim voter fraud and they will control the national guard. Whose going to remove them from office? The feds? If we have a GOP president.... probably not.The man was not content with trying to overthrow democracy, he wanted the kind of power possessed by two of his political role models: Putin and Kim, the latter of who he said "we fell in love", despite him being the worlds worst dictator.
