They have no power to block anything. They can’t just create power they don’t have.
A little off topic, but this is the one caution I have against woke politics. Nothing wrong with being more woke than we were yesterday, but everyone from all factions within the Democratic party need to understand that it’s power that they need first and most.
Trump keeps calling Biden ‘Sleepy Joe’. Why isn’t Biden promoting the video showing Trump falling asleep during the Queen’s speech, and calling Trump ‘Sleepy Don’?
Pretty much everything Trump and his supporters accuse someone of applies to him directly and far more appropriately, from calling Hillary “Crooked” and Ted Cruz “Lyin’” to the recent accusations that Biden is taking Adderall. Trump is far more incoherent and confused than Biden, he has much greater ties to China than Biden, he’s been considerably more creepy to women - especially underaged ones - than Biden and a stronger connection to Epstein than Clinton, he’s “hidden in the basement” (unlike Biden), he’s screwed up national mask policy on CoVID (unlike Biden who isn’t actually president), and he’s completely in bed with Russia (unlike Biden).
Because Biden isn’t a six-year-old. While I definitely think he should take the gloves off, tactics like this aren’t going to flip anyone who’s in Trump’s base.
Individual 1 is reaching out to state legislators in states that have a majority of Republican legislators, talking about having them choose their own slate of electors if Biden wins their state.
In person voting here starts Oct. 6th. The way trump keeps acting (talking), you guys may convince me to vote for Biden yet. Yes, I want to vote Jorgenson, but my state is important this time.
A tweet? Uh, I’ll believe it when it’s actually reported in a legitimate news publication. Until then, it’s just a tweet being reported by a site that has “Oh Myyyyy!” at the top of it.
Like I said, I’m not saying it’s not true. But I’m not believing it is either until something more substantial comes out.
When asked by the Atlantic if the reported plans were true, the Trump campaign Deputy Press Secretary Thea McDonald did not deny them:
“It’s outrageous that President Trump and his team are being villainized for upholding the rule of law and transparently fighting for a free and fair election. The mainstream media are giving the Democrats a free pass for their attempts to completely uproot the system and throw our election into chaos.”
Republican party leaders in the swing state of Pennsylvania cited in the article said they’ve already floated loyal electors to the President’s people.
