Which election was that?
I did not say the DNC is the state. I am suggesting that the way the two-party system has developed is an indication of a failed state.
The DNC has rigged three primaries in a row, yet has continued to struggle against the same crook that can’t form a sentence. It doesn’t fit the exact definition of “failed state”, but do we need to split that hair?
So that everyone running for a House seat can get their position on record before the election, I suppose
Oh shit! David Bowie, Prince, and Kenny Rogers are alive!
If I understand the actual text of the law, it only refers to disputes that directly involve the U.S. This dispute does not. (Sure, the U.S. is indirectly involved, but we’re at least indirectly involved with everything.)
Yes, it would be stupid for him to involve himself, but Trump has done enough illegal shit that we don’t need to go looking for more.
I have little doubt that the country will end up as some version of Trump’s authoritarian state. The question is the timing.
I actually think that our best chance of avoiding it (in the long run) is another Trump victory. He will make those changes so abruptly that people will react far more strongly than if we slid into an authoritarian state gradually. I mean…think about the possibility of Trump having won in 2020. The DNC would have to accept that they need to nominate a truly progressive candidate, and people would be demanding change immediately. Instead, we’re justifying Biden/Harris again because they’re not Trump.
I was going to say the “grab them by the pussy” tape was crossing the line, but yeah, treason as well.
