IMO there is no doubt at all that this is where it will lead. OTOH, something similar could happen if the '24 election is perceived to be rigged and the Feds are unwilling to be transparent and allow a serious, impartial investigation PRIOR to inauguration day. That's assuming the Left even refrains from violence until the election occurs. I really believe they will light it off as soon as they grasp that he will win again.

The feds do not run the elections the states do.

The feds do not run the elections the states do.

I was speaking of the Democrat bill HR1. Had it been passed and signed into law, the Feds would have effectively taken away the Constitutional provision of state legislatures being responsible for elections.

The bill still faces a steep climb in the US Senate.
