The GA-SoS said we'd have an audit, recount, and canvas "all rolled into one". EVERYTHING he did after that betrayed that lie. Brad Raffensperger is an Enemy of the State of Georgia.

Loeffler never faced a primary. It was a special election conducted on a "jungle ballot" in the general election. There were 17 candidates on the same slate. Warnock is entirely Trump's fault. He failed to endorse either Loeffler or Collins unambiguously. He let the vote be split.

What about the next one? The 6th was the beginning of a new era of political resistance. MAGA motherfuckers!!

Great, but we're still just tinkering around the edges. "failed to represent average conservative Utah Republican voter." Our republic can't be fixed until we repeal the 17th amendment and restore the State Gov entity as a constituency at the FedGov bargaining table. Senators were never meant to "represent the average" anything. They were never meant to represent "The People". That's a different constituency already represented in the House. State Gov representation was taken from StateGov's and handed to the People of the State and no other adjustments were ever made to offset that structural change to our Constitutional framework. Our system will remain hopelessly out of balance and dysfunctional as long as this state remains.

Trump '24!?

Trump will be 80. Can't we find a new champion before then? Why not DeSantis '24, or Hawley '24? I'm very uncomfortable with the idea that Trump, as a candidate, is the FUTURE of the GoP.

Not even close to the same thing, partner. There was no primary held for this ballot. Your stated concern/defense is completely invalid.

"Primary fight"?? There was no primary in the Loeffler/Collins/Warnock race. It was a "jungle" ballot.

Aside from the bureaucratic fast-track, it's my understanding that this "vaccine" works on a different principle than any before it.

I'm alright with the idea of "leaders". What makes me cringe is when winning an election is characterized as "coming to power". That phrase need never be used in a representative democracy.

They are entering into a crisis of legitimacy and credibility. The more people see this kind of behavior by stalwart right-siders, the more confident they will be to express their own incredulity. Never stop mocking, subverting, and sabotaging them. Politically. In Minecraft.

Spez: ...even if this IS fake news, as it seems to be.
