He asked state legislatures to take away the votes from the people and appoint electors for him.

That’s a fact that his supporters don’t want to admit to.

Trump calls on GOP state legislatures to overturn election results

The president’s comment comes after a series of legal defeats, and with his options dwindling.

He asked the state legislatures to appoint new electors.

No recounting ballots. No ballots at all.

Just throw them all away. They don’t count. None of them.

When was the last time the state legislatures replaced electors chosen by the voters?

He asked to disenfranchise millions of voters. That’s a fact.

I assumed you would know since you claimed it’s happened before.

Kennedy won some votes in Hawaii after a recount was completed, so it has nothing to do with this situation since there was no recount and Trump was just asking for the votes anyway.

Trump asked to disenfranchise millions. That’s simply a fact.

I read the details. The recount was ordered by the court and was in process when the electors were meeting. The state legislature had nothing to do with it and the result reflected the final official count of the vote.

The only reason people weren’t disenfranchised is because Trump didn’t get what he wanted.

To me, that’s what getting rid of democracy means. Disenfranchisement.

Conservative activist Jack Posobiec joyfully hailed the “end of democracy” at the Conservative Political Action Conference, further emphasizing Republicans’ apparent desire to completely overthrow America as we know it.

MAGA Republican Pledges “End of Democracy” to Rabid Cheers at CPAC

Republicans at CPAC 2024 are openly vowing to take down democracy.

newrepublic.com

Now MAGA are not even hiding their contempt for our democratic institutions.

As Maya Angelou said, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them.”

Note: I know one of the first posts from a MAGA will be we are not a democracy. Yes, that is the exact sentiment I would expect from someone who doesn't care if our democratic institutions are eliminated.

This is a very sad commentary on the complete ruination of conservative thought.

There’s nothing free or fair about an election whose results are thrown out.

And that’s what Trump wanted.

There’s nothing illegal about the court finding a candidate is ineligible for office and therefore cannot appear on the ballot.

And it doesn’t disenfranchise anyone.

Trump asked to disenfranchise millions of people. That’s a fact you have yet to admit to.
