The mere fact that you can’t come up with any other possible schemes doesn’t mean that nobody else can.
Or that they aren’t trying. Or that they haven’t marshaled a big posse of people and think tanks, working behind the scenes and who are both competent and well-compensated.
Tedious. Achingly tedious.
Personnel changes, accompanied by radically different screening and hiring practices?
Yes, your constant insistence that Trump has some Big Secret Genius Plan that none of us can even imagine, let alone comprehend, and that at some point which keeps getting pushed farther and farther into the future, he’s going to unveil it and it will be absolutely unstoppable and expose us all for the fools we are, IS rather tedious.
Putting words in the mouths of others is but one glaring example of how desperation [ETA: and projection] has taken the place of logic, for you, on this one.
Who you mean “we”, Kemosabe?
Marketing suggests getting the message before your potential customers where you can reasonably expect that they’ll be. In that spirit …
Accusing me of being illogical is pretty rich coming from someone whose argument is “they’ll just do it somehow”.
No. It really isn’t.
I’m unaware of plots to rob banks in this country, or terrorist plots that may be executed on our soil.
My lack of awareness doesn’t mean they aren’t taking place.
Please stop putting words in my mouth. Though you may not be able to differentiate between the truth of my posts and the fiction of your take on my posts, I believe others can.
“Personnel changes” where? The governorship of Georgia? The Colorado secretary of state’s office? Trump doesn’t hire those people. The Supreme Court is the same makeup now as it was in 2020 and all three of his appointees ruled against him then as well.
And yet, if I asked you to articulate how someone might go about robbing a bank, I bet you could do better than “They’ll do something nobody, including myself, has ever thought of before”.
Claiming to be logical is pretty rich for a guy that just finished a multi month “demon summoning ritual”.
Which I explicitly stated that I was not doing because I literally expected to summon demons, but go on with your Reddit atheist ad hom totally unrelated to the topic at hand.
Trump, himself, doesn’t need to be involved in the planning. In addition to the incompetent yes-folks, there are the Project 2025 folks, whom I dismissed two years ago—foolishly.
I don’t see any need to cancel elections when they are getting better and better about sowing doubt about the results. If elections happen and there is genuine disagreement about the results, who wins?
I’m saying we should focus on the things that have already happening in the present rather than focusing on things that might hypothetically happen at some point in the future.
To use your analogy, it’s 1941. Some people are saying that Hitler is conquering Europe and we should be sending troops and supplies to Europe to fight Hitler. And other people are saying that Hitler is going to invade South America and that’s closer than Europe, so we should be sending troops and supplies to South America so we’ll be ready when Hitler invades there.
My personal opinion is that Trump won’t cancel the elections. He and the Republicans will allow elections to occur but they will attempt to control the results.
This crazy president is posting that they now have proof that Obama is guilty of something and should be arrested. It’s probably just talk.
We certainly can’t worry about anything until we are actually in an extermination camp.
May we be hysterical about that, or is it just something else we shouldn’t focus on because it might hypothetically happen at some point in the future?
This is the key point. What’s the line from Game of Thrones? Power resides where people believe it to reside, or something along those lines.
The problem with electoral loopholes and schemes like the alternate slate of electors is that even if they work, as in even if you get the Mike Pences of the world to go along with it and rubber stamp your bullshit, this isn’t base tag. You don’t get to say “I made it, I’m safe, you can’t tag me!”.
What you’ve done at that point is not secure the presidency, you’ve destroyed it. You’ll have made the presidency so obviously illegitimate that you’ll have forfeited all its power.
Minneapolis schools betray kids to feed ICE hysteria
The NY Post editorial board argues that remote schooling is a hysterical overreaction to ICE. In the meantime, this is happening.
And so is this.
And yet it comes up time and time again that because such and such didn’t happen in the past, it couldn’t possibly be happening now. Sound familiar?
