“Elections nationwide should be one day, paper ballots…” Fund it and it can be done. It’s primarily a volunteer thing now. Not enough people can take two days off of work to volunteer to monitor and count ballots.
MTG stole the election from Shawn Harris. So there. Words mean nothing anymore.
Best player on the other team
They stole the house race by having coherent policy and a functional adult leading them but yet still ultimately losing. Thanks MTG, very cool
They stole the house race by having coherent policy
They… Didn’t though. That’s exactly why they lost.
Pro tip: the coherent policy does still exist even if you don’t bother to look it up. It’s not like trees falling in the forest or something.
When you keep walking back on your promises two months before the election that’s called not having coherent policy. Running on saving democracy is not having coherent policy. “There’s not a thing that comes to mind” is not coherent policy. The only policies she stuck to until election day were the insane border wall and watered down Biden campaign promises.
Did you need someone to google that policy for you?
Do you need to look at the election results that say they failed miserably at vocalizing that supposedly coherent policy?
How cute. You think people on the whole care about policies and are very studious in examining them when considering candidates?
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Compared to Trump they certainly did. I would be the first to tell you they fucked up, but I mean, Trump still doesn’t seem to understand tariffs.
He understands just fine. He wants to replace the taxes that he doesn’t pay with tariffs. A tax on poor people.
The tariffs will also crash the economy, letting Trump and Musk buy up large parts of the country for pennies on the dollar.
Maybe he does! But has he ever acknowledged the fact that consumers pay the cost publicly? He always acts like he’s making other countries pay.
Of course he could just be lying for manipulative purposes, it would be very on brand. But what makes you think so in this case specifically?
He’s tried tariffs before, and had the entire Republican party tell him how shit an idea they are.
But he might not believe them. He is pretty stupid and stubborn.
But I’m thinking he wants to crash the economy to buy everything at pennies on the dollar.
I think your plan is smarter than whatever he could come up with. Although apparently he has complained about the dollar being “overvalued” so maybe you’re right!
I mean why are you comparing with Trump? Anyone who cares about that comparison was going to vote for her anyway.
Because we’re talking about the election? What a weird question
It’s a silly thing to focus on to a lot of people though, because the vast majority of people who the Democrats were supposed to be talking to weren’t ever considering voting for Trump. Of course I say supposed to because in actuality you’re right they were trying to appeal to Trump voters, and they failed again spectacularly as they usually do when they try to appeal to Republicans. However for the rest of us it’s a moot point. They don’t want to be told it’s good compared to trump, because that was never an option. So saying their plan was better than Trump is like saying shooting yourself in the foot is better than shooting yourself in the head. That’s not going to motivate people who would just prefer not to be shot at all.
I have been making the same argument you are for months. Absolutely no idea what you think you’re arguing with but it isn’t me. I agree with you.
Like I said, anyone who cares about that was going to vote Harris either way. The people who didn’t show up are the people who didn’t care about that comparison, or at least didn’t care enough to go vote. Harris failed to appeal to these people in part because independently of Trump she didn’t have coherent policy leading up to the election.
Honestly it wasn’t that deep. Just an off the cuff joke about MTG saying they stole the house. You’re right overall. I don’t think it was a coherence issue but maybe
During the election I found myself rooting for Trump once it became ~15% for Harris. The collective brain rot on the right has an extreme aversion to understanding statistics. They literally would not be able to comprehend that it’s possible for a coin to land on heads 3 times in a row.
Yeah, Democrats stole house race, just not enough to win it and let trump win.
I fucking hate this victim playing shit they do: “We either win, or you cheated”
For real, if they are so good at cheating and stealing elections why did they fumble the ball so hard this time? They stole just one very close House race and not, like, the entire thing? Pathetic. I’m disappointed Democrats.
“Congressman John Duarte was winning but after 22 days of counting ballots he is now losing by 105 votes,” Greene wrote on X Wednesday.
She’s so dumb it honestly hurts my brain just to contemplate her existence.
According to this infosec professional, they may very well have stolen the election
I’ve been making fun of Trump supporters for the last 4 years for this shit.
I never started screaming there was a stolen election. But after having read the piece, I see a reason for concern.
I don’t. And you shouldn’t either after you read the snopes article about it.
And now that someone showed me that, I withdraw what I said. I’d never seen anyone write about it or talk about it. And just figured someone should look into it (they did)
This is very interesting and deserves a post of its own. Those bullet ballot inconsistencies should demand scrutiny.
Hadn’t seen this! Thanks! No one said anything about it for days afterwards and I never saw anything come of it.
This is all I wanted unless there was more concrete proof of tampering. Just seemed like someone, somewhere with some credentials should have looked into it. And now I know they did!
It’s brilliant frankly, you’ve rigged the system but you don’t want Republicans to know, so you just give them the House, the Senate, and the White House to lure them into a false sense of security. A flawless plan, they’ll never see the next step coming: being helpless to stop the unfolding erosion of civil liberties and public health and safety.
"The horse I bet 500$ on was winning but at the last minute some pile of glue came from behind and edged out a win. This is obvious cheating. "
She’s one of those people who claim the refs are biased when their team loses a football game.
they “won”, and given how much projection there was about election and voter fraud for years… i’m guessing there was, just not from the side they were implying was doing it.
“Don’t worry about voting. The voting — we got plenty of votes.”
For a moment I wondered why the fuck Magic The Gathering had anything to say about democrats and politics…
In this case MTG stands for “Margarine Trailer Queen.”
I thought T stood for Terrorist?
That’s qreat.
