There's no such thing as bipartisanship in the Cult of Trump.

Anyone caught trying to interfere in the midterm elections should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Of course, that supposes that will be any laws left by the time we get to November.

Well, there you go. Trump wants his own people to "certify" election equipment and to remove anyone already familiar with that process.

Could this imply Trump has specific machines in mind?

This speaks to a man attempting to steal an election.

If this happened anywhere else in the world there would be international election inspectors at the next elections.

I'm old enough to remember when a federal takeover of elections would have been met with calls for 2A solutions to overcome the "tyranny."

Now, those same people will probably volunteer to use their 2A rights to help "secure" the elections.

MAGA idiots have always been the biggest source of danger for tyranny and loss of our Constitutional rights. They're showing it here.

Oh, hell. We knew at the time that these people were loud-mouthed cowards.

When a fully fascist government finally comes for their guns, I imagine we would get a few Alamo-like situations in which the government burns down the resisting residences and allows the defenders to simply roast alive without scoring a shot.

The rest of these peckerwooods are just going to give up their guns.
