2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.


Recommended Posts

They successfully rebutted the challenges to the 2020 election. I have no reason to think they won't do the same thing in 2024.

But you need to consider 2000. I’m not talking hanging chads, recounts, and Supreme Court challenges. All of that is related to whether we count votes that were cast. Same with the lawsuits the Republicans lost consistently in 2020/21.

What I am talking is what Florida’s AG did months leading up to election: disqualification of legal voters, skewed towards those with Hispanic names. You can’t count votes that weren’t cast. There is nothing the awesome lawyers can do after Election Day. By DQ’ing names the registration rolls, they can keep people from casting votes. Some will argue about it and go through the hassle of filling in provisional ballots, but many will not. It was enough to get Bush the presidency in 2000.

Yeah, well......the court has changed over the past 4 years.  Nothing would surprise me now.

 

 

And the GQP will use better attorneys than Rudy and Sidney

The solution is easy.  When any of those fuckers exceed their authority and actually interfere in a duly called and held election....you arrest them.  It doesn't matter whether it's the Hamburglar or MAGA County Election Official #3, if they run off with a ballot box or some shit, you arrest their ass, slap them in irons, and toss them in a cell.  And if they refuse to process ballots....you do the same.

An illegal attack on our elections is just that, and should be treated as the criminal act that it is.  See, these fuckers whined for years about IMAGINARY election crimes, and now they intend to commit ACTUAL election crimes (every accusation is a confession, exhibit 30 jillion).  FAFO.


There’s a very well established reason you hang all traitors.

lol.  DQing folks with Hispanic last names in FL might not have quite the weight it does elsewhere.

If they call the same plays they will have a similar result.

Meanwhile Trump.   Can't find a controversial Radical Pastor I've visited since I never even attended church.

Does Franklin Graham qualify as a "radical pastor"? How about Robert Jeffress?

good, turn it into a town hall if he doesn't show up

Yep, just give her 2 hours of answering the moderator's questions without Diaper Don there to stink up the joint.  He can rage away on Truth Social.  Keep referring to "my opponent who was too scared to show up and debate me"

"This person Kamala Harris knows said things 23 years ago that I don't like."

"Said things? Someone who isn't running for office?"

"Yeah. It's terrible. Disqualifying, imo."

"Do you know who your candidate for president is?"

"Oh well everything he has said in his life doesn't matter at all. He just says things. So it doesn't matter."

"......."

I'd be curious to see the roster of attorneys looking to follow their lead and pursue disbarrment and utter humiliation like these two clowns.

Hang.  Line up against the wall and shoot in real-time.  Mow down as they assault the Capitol.  Potato, potahto.

All the more reason to make sure the election isn't close. "Oh, you're not certifying the election Harris won by 100 EVs and 10 million votes? Because reasons?"

I mean, we could write some pieces like that on Trump's pastor.  He's the most Christian president we've ever had, a darling of the evangelical Christians who want to bring White Jesus's dominion to these United States.  So, let's see what Devout Christian Donald Trump's long-time pastor has to say....

We could always invite Trump's faith advisor back in - I'm sure she's still got his back ...

 

Nod to Buck for beating me to the punch - still prefer it with the metal accompaniment.

Man, who knows what Trump's pastor has said. If he had one. 

Close associates of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump respectively.

  • He'll show up. Old men get lost sometimes. Bless his heart.
  • I hope Donald's bone spurs haven't flared up again. It can happen late in life.
  • I hope he shows up, I want to hear about the sharks and batteries and whatever Hannibal Lector is up to.
  • I'm sure he's not scared of me. I wonder why he isn't here.

Unusable:

  • He's a caring man. He probably stopped to visit Ivanna's grave at the golf course where he buried her.
  • Did you check the bathroom? He might be reorganizing all those boxes.

2016: Hillary to Trump voters - you're a basket of deplorables
Voters: Deplora-what? huh? 
Trump supporters: respond by being more deplorable

2024: Dems to Trump voters - you're fucking weird
Voters: oh, weird.  That's bad and off-putting
Trump supporters: respond by being even more fucking weird

The difference is this time it's aimed at the candidates and not the voters

It's aimed at the candidates and the hardcore MAGAts.  Imma got it right that the best thing is there is no stepping back and apologizing this time.  K-Hive is beating the living shit out of them with it.

Those of you who don't think there's any serious danger posed by the GOP's plans to contest the election because they failed last time don't actually remember what happened last time. Last time, Trump simply assumed that because Republican officials were involved in administering elections in swing states, they would rig the election for him. They had no legal strategy to speak of and had to scramble with Rudy and Sidney Powell and Lin Wood to try to come up with some shit they could throw at the wall after-the-fact. That is not what will happen this time

This time, they're much better prepared and have quite literally replaced all of those people who didn't rig the election for Trump last time with people they trust to do so this time. That doesn't mean they can definitely rig it (see Js1's post noting the differences between 2020 and 2024), but the legal arguments they will make will have a much greater appearance of legitimacy and may give Trump judges enough pretext to fuck with the election and try to prevent the timely certification of the correct electors and throw it to the House. It's very much within the realm of possibility that they could fabricate enough smoke for this SCOTUS to issue an order enjoining the governors of say, Arizona and Pennsylvania from submitting electors.  Just because SCOTUS refused to accept the harebrained insanity that was filed late and often in the wrong fucking courts by Trump's dipshit crew last time doesn't mean they won't try to steal the election when they think they have a more acceptable pretext for doing so. And their recent behavior makes it clear that they're more desperate to instill a permanent Republican dictator now than they were in 2020, so if anything their bar for what is an acceptable pretext is likely lower this year than it was in 2020.

Dems need to not just sit around and wait for this to happen. They need to go on the offensive, both in terms of a public PR campaign making clear what the GOP intends to do and in terms of FBI investigations. Because an election official refusing to certify an election without a valid basis for doing so is almost certainly a federal crime and it needs to be made very fucking clear that anyone who does not faithfully carry out their duties will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.  And Democratic elected officials at the state and federal level need to speak out in a unified voice that SCOTUS doesn't have the last or only say on this.

If SCOTUS does that, I wonder if the next President is going to have at least 5 openings to fill on day one.

So Xhitter has an account that reposts dumbasses posts on truth? I though Elon allowed him back? Are these responses on truth or on the twitter account reposting truth screenshots?

they need a delay / refusal to certify results. Long game
