  • He has 2 options.

    First is the obvious saying that there’s nothing stopping him from running for a 3rd term, and once again using Jim Crow era vote suppression and other slimy tricks to win again.

    The second option is to just declare that presidency is a for-life position. He can do that, after all.

    And he’s making that last part perfectly clear. He is above the law. There are no consequences for him breaking the law, and nothing stopping him from doing whatever he wants. The people who could are so polite that if words won’t stop him, they say more words at him. That’ll do it!

    From what I’ve learned, there is a difference when used as an actual apology.

    “I’m sorry” (on its own, without being followed by “you feel that way”) is genuine and tells that the speaker is honestly so.

    “I apologize” is formal and kind of fake. They’re likely more sorry they were called out rather than sorry for what they were called out for.


  • For even more fun: agree. Then elaborate. Lean right on into the insult, flip it into a good thing, or a ‘oh thanks for pointing that out, I’ll reflect on that’ depending on the tupe of insult.

    It’s amazing how MAD trolls get when you remain calm and treat ad homenim as either a compliment or means to self-reflect.

    Watching them try more and more insults, getting angrier and angrier, until they just give up. It brings me joy!






  • I seem to have have understated the number of provisional ballots thrown out. Allegedly it was close to 2.7 million.

    This video is how I found out, which led to me sitting down and watching the full story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfs2kC0xOmU

    I am a person who really hates getting into politics. It bores and confuses me.

    That said, I don’t think this is a good time to lie down and give up.

    Every single thing we can do to keep this monster out of control, including a vote recount and finding out if those 2.7 million wrongfully suppressed provisional ballots can be restored. It’s a gross injustice.


  • Fraud may be the incorrect term in a technical sense, but they did engage in mass targeted vote suppression, especially in swing states.

    Take a look at this: https://www.watchvigilantesinc.com/

    Full documentary on YouTube. For free. Intentionally. https://youtu.be/P_XdtAQXnGE

    If we can get word of this EVERYWHERE asap, I really really really hope we can get those suppressed votes counted. If the right people who know what to do see it soon enough

    Edit for a Tl;dr of the documentary: Highly influential people used an old Jim Crow law to question the legal right to vote of tens of thousands (I misremembered. It’s allegedly around 2.7 million) of voters. These people were NOT notified, and their votes NOT counted because of this.

    This is MAJOR intentional election interference.
