They know they can't realistically "win" anything without it looking obviously suspicious, so what's the next best thing? Let the Republicans take a simple majority while also cheating the people in you want to retain and control.
But why? Why concede the midterms and make it harder for your agenda? So your steal doesn't get brought to light.
Think about it for a second. They can control the narrative and when Republicans that got cheated are "whining" they can try and make us look like the bad guys for demanding audits. "Oh... it's not enough you got a majority? You guys are sore losers!!!" Then for the next two years it's all about the ungrateful Republicans and painting them as the bad guys while they shut down the government and let all the economic problems happen while they have a simple, do nothing majority...
I said before... I will say it again... anything less than a MAGA landslide is UNACCEPTABLE. Fuck their narratives. Fuck optics. Demand audits on ALL of these elections ESPECIALLY the ones where MAGA won. DO NOT SETTLE FOR THIS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE.
I had been thinking the same thing.
I wanted to add that we should consider the perverse incentives as well. We know the GOP cheats too. The RINOs happily rig primaries through various means. Mitch McConnell has been pulling funding from MAGA Republicans this election season for example. Why weaken his own party's chances? Because Mitch McConnell has more power personally if there's a slim Republican majority. If there's a slim majority in the Senate, every vote counts. If you want to get anything done, you have to go through him to get it done so that you have the team working together- no strays voting their conscience. But if you have a large majority, people know there's a bigger margin for dissent. Mitch doesn't have the same level of control. So, Republicans actually shoot themselves in the foot to maintain personal positions of advantage.
Let's also remember that Congressmen take a salary of $174K/yr but most are worth many millions. How does that work? Well, the lobbyists also knows who holds the decision-making power in DC and the money and favors flow to them. Mitch McConnell benefits personally and financially from being able to exercise the kind of control he's used to as Senate Majority Leader.
When it comes down to fixing this garbage, this is why sometimes we run into headwinds because the people we are counting on to clean up the mess are personally benefiting from it.
I'm of the opinion that every election should be audited. Not recounted. Audited. Ensure transparency from top to bottom every single time. Assure the voters that things were done right, regardless of who wins.
Yeah but at this point, military is the only way...
It had better happen soon. I think many of us have reached the precipice and anything less would just be a giant, shit-flavored black pill...
It's not about us who are already awake reaching the precipice. It's about the average NPC walking down the street who still doesn't have a clue about the satanic cabal. Once those people wake up and are actually angered enough to demand change, then it's showtime.
Then we would never need the military, the people would overthrow tyranny. So is military the only way?
