Who are the main relevant democrats right now? It should be handled by other people with resources to not let him get away with it. Otherwise yeah probably he will. 

[Joshe]

I'm sure there's going to be a massive response to this. It'll be interesting how it plays out. Basically, this is a huge pressure campaign to change voting laws before the midterms.

Im torn with this issue. They have proof of citizenship in Canada and nobody says the elections are rigged there or that they are right wing fascists or whatever they call Trump (he is an right wing fascists idiot) . So what's the big deal with proof of citizenship? It's seems like common sense. 

 

But yes Trump is such a mistake on so many levels. We reap what we sow.

Of course hes trying to rig the midterms cause the republicans are gonna lose by a huge amount. Hes also trying to make sure Gavin Newsom doesn't run in 2028. Trump is going to do whatever it take to stay a 3rd term

I think it's possible Trump and the Project 2025 people are planning an actual hostile takeover and won't even try to cheat in 2028. If you know what the Heritage Foundation is and how it operates, and how deeply embedded in our political system it is, when you hear it's leader say "The revolution will be bloodless if the left allows it to be.", and when you realize that dude is serious as fuck and has serious plans in the works, backed by billions of dollars, that statement reads to me like a direct confrontation. Not some slow soft coup. Just a theory, but it seems possible they just outright say "we're taking over, no more democracy". I know it sounds crazy and hard to imagine how they'd pull it off, but these people have the deepest pockets and influence and a vast network of operatives (tens of thousands), and they're building underground bunkers with mini cities inside them.

Maybe not likely but I'm keeping it on the table.

Republicans have gone full criminal this term, this isn't about power its about staying out of prison, it's probably going to get wild. It's not just trump facing prison this time it's a ton of them, and they know it. 

Definitely be careful what you say online, they're going to arrest everyone they can. They're using palantir for this.

Oh I'm aware of this. At least 75% of Project 2025 is already implemented. This is country is fucked regardless because of the voters are fucking dumb; hence JVL is always right. It not only Trump we have to worry about, there is no doubt in my mind in the near future we worry about Barron Trump in 2044 & Kai Trump whenever she's old enough to run for president which is at least the late 2040's to early 2050's. Also Stephen Miller & his kids as well

If you guys feel hopeless, it really is just a culture war, there's no reasoning with them but there is a way to win. This is the reason for the manosphere and maga, despite the claim for "rugged independence" conservatives just want to fit in somewhere, not that it's about anti-white male sentiment, it's because their 'community' is more visible, they wear the same hat lol. All we have to do is 'make more friends' essentially, not with maga but with independents, bring them into the cult. You don't actually have to even talk politics, we have our own culture, it might be hard for you to see but you can see conservative culture! Independents can see the two different cultures. Even just online, or just going out works, you don't have to make actual friends. People are just voting their tribe.

None of those people have much power 

[Lyubov]

He will try but do not go doomer. In the USA we have a ton of power to fight back with protesting and there is a long history of agency amongst people to resist. We will not turn into China or even Hungary. 

[thepixelmonk]

lmao "rigging the midterms" 😂 you will never convince the majority of Americans that something as simple as voter ID, supported by like 85%+ of the population, is "suppression". you just won't be able to do it. the save act is going to be passed and it is going to have devastating effects on the democrat party because everyone knows exactly what is actually going on and we are putting a stop to it.

Most people aren't opposed to it because yea, it's probably a good idea to be relatively secure with voting in the long run. SAVE act is probably too extreme, though.

In person voter fraud is basically non-existent as a form of election fraud, it's almost entirely inconsequential. It just doesn't scale well because it's incredibly hard for somebody to coordinate millions of people to commit in-person fraud on a large scale.

So if it isn't really an issue, ask yourself why is it that republicans want it so badly right now? The reason is because it will disproportionately impact the democrats by reducing the number of minorities and young people who can vote, not because it will prevent the democrats from orchestrating a nation-wide voter conspiracy.

What do you think is going on?

There are two types of voting fraud the SAVE act will reduce:

• In-person voter fraud e.g. lying about who you are (estimated to happen 1 time out of every 20-40 million votes)
• Non-citizens voting (estimated to affect 1 vote out of every 1 to 2 million votes)

Both are incredibly rare. To the point where it's basically a non-issue. So I have no idea what you think is going on here to be honest. The stats suggest absolutely nothing.

I hope they Hungarify the USA very soon and vote MAGA out, like they did to Orban recently.

yes it will prevent the democrats from orchestrating a nation-wide voter conspiracy. you can't say it's incredibly rare because blue states refuse to validate their voter information. everybody knows it. you can't hide the truth from what everyone can see in front of our eyes. if it's not happening then why do you care at all? reducing minorities and young people? like "minorities and young people" can't pick up an ID? like huge numbers of minorities and young people didn't vote for Trump? gen z men are one of the most conservative generations in our history right now. again, you will never convince America this is suppression. it will not happen and SAVE will be passed. cope as hard as you want.

The burden of proof is on you. You are claiming there is a massive nation-wide conspiracy. This is something you need to prove.

“Everybody knows it” is not remotely enough evidence to support that claim.
