      The terrifying thing is that thanks to the electoral college and FPTP, he has as good a chance as Kamala despite being grossly unpopular

      We need reform but as long as we keep pretending that the Republican party is a legitimate political party, that’s not gonna happen

        Part of why I get pissed by people saying they aren’t voting/are voting third party this election. It NEEDS to be overwhelmingly Harris so the Supreme Court gets scared about giving it to the GoP. If Harris loses, there is no future election, and people who were all, “Harris is just as evil I’m not voting/voting 3rd party” will be among the people rounded up and thrown into concentration camps. Morals don’t matter shit when you get forced to work to death

        It’s either make sure it’s overwhelming, or stop aiming to off Trump and instead take out the republicans on the SC - At least 4 of them. And I doubt the latter will happen, so it NEEDS to be an overwhelming Dem victory

        I think there will be multiple lawsuits (Georgia, North and South Carolina, etc.,) and shady election poll shenanigans, and SCOTUS will appoint him King. Like what they did to Gore.

      And then Vance is President? I’m not sure that’s better, all the same horrible views, somewhat more coherent, has no idea how a human behaves, is on the record that if he’d been Pence he’d have helped with the coup

        The only reason Pence grew a backbone is he truly believed he would be murdered if he’d left the Capitol, and replaced with The Speaker of The House. It wasn’t honor, or duty, or courage, it was purely self interest in survival.

      Seriously, if he loses, and can’t escape, he’ll definitely off himself before he goes to prison. Oh no, anyway…
