Translation: Republicans don't believe in democracy. Shocking!

A party which appeals to fascists under the delusion they're not.

Still not keen on a twice impeached, elderly and convicted felon.

Does MAGA think everyone is just going to go along with it and not say or do anything? It will be pandemonium if they try and pull something like this.

What Raskin said was

“In February, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) told a group at the Politics and Prose bookstore in D.C. that if former President Donald Trump wins, Congress must disqualify him on January 6, 2025.

The comment happened before SCOTUS ruled on Trump’s eligibility for the ballot due to his supposed participation in an “insurrection.” Raskin knew the court wouldn’t disqualify Trump.

Raskin insisted that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment should keep Trump off the ballot. Section 3 was meant to prevent Confederates from holding federal office after the Civil War.”

This is why MAGA are the most anti American people ever even with all their American flags. You don’t give a crap about this country and democracy is you are ok with a candidate doing whatever it takes to get elected.

It is insane! Terrible!

What can we do to prevent Trump stealing the election now that we know he is preparing to try this?

+1

This is scary shit. Trump 100% will try to steal this election unfairly. We need to stop him and not let him.

Tell everyone you know to check their voter registration on Vote.org (make sure it’s .ORG). Apparently people are being removed from voter logs (or whatever they’re called).

DOJ!

Seriously scary.

The Dems should seriously consider investing in Texas or Florida, whichever is polling better, to try to get to 270 without some of the swing states.

Talk to people IRL. Make them aware of this. Remember when the media was falling to cover Project 2025 and then people grassroots’ed that conversation and tied that millstone of a policy around the GOP’s neck where it belongs? Same thing. The media obviously isn’t going to cover the gravity of this situation because that would mean explaining how far gone the Republican Party is.
