Apparently NYT just did an opinion piece called "Elections Are Bad For Democracy" and The Atlantic did a piece called "Americans Vote Too Much".
*edit: NYT changed the title to "The Worst People Run for Office. It’s Time for a Better Way."
If they know they can't win, can't cheat enough and can't stop Trump running, will they sabotage the entire election? If there is no election and Joey Bribes time is up, who steps in? Military?
Corruption seems to be the norm, no matter how big or small the government entity. I was in a Home Owners Association and even with such a small "government" the people in charge abused the money for their own benefit. Minimal power corrupts minimally, absolute power corrupts absolutely :)
Exactly! I am so glad I moved away and live in a regular, non-HOA, neighborhood (now if something can just be done about the guy at the end of the street who burns garbage :) ) I became President of our HOA several years ago; immediately weeded out the waste and started some bylaws to hopefully prevent the abuse of the board. But even with that, a later board managed to spend a ridiculous amount of money on a small project that should have been voted on by the members, according to a new bylaw, but they didn't have the vote and did the project anyway.
Unfortunately it is the norm of mankind since the fall. We are corrupted by sin and that is why we need the Savior. God gave a gift of redemption through faith in Christ
They (Democrats) know that if they lose power, it is over for them.
Just like we suspected it would be if President Trump had lost 2020.
In 2019, my boss and I had a discussion on what it would be like if President Trump was defeated in 2020. I told him it would be all out oppression and retribution by the Democrats, that they would visit unholy terror on the part of the nation that chose President Trump. I knew it was going to be bad, but I was "unawake" at the time. I had no real idea that what I was saying was so prophetic.
Now that I am awake, I see that Democrats have completely abandoned the rule of law, equal justice under the law, and freedom. They are finally showing the proof that the Constitution was pushed aside in 1871 and that we have not been a country "of the people and for the people" for a long time now.
BMSB, you rarely fail to bring the goods. So often when I see a super relevant bit of data, there's your name. Especially this part:
WE CAN'T MOVE FORWARD WITHOUT 2020 BEING RESOLVED.
This "resolve" from Trump is what we patriots have been LOVING each time he shares it, ever since he first started saying "In 2024 we'll take back the White House!"
Every time I hear "2024" I cringe and shudder for about five minutes. After all, he famously said on multiple occasions:
"When you steal the diamonds, you have to give them back."
Not "When you steal the diamonds, you get to keep and enjoy them for four years, maybe SELL some for millions of dollars, and then we'll have a DEBATE about whether you have to give anything back or not."
True. Trump needs to be back in the White House and Kari Lake needs to be AZ Governor. All the swamp creatures need to meet their maker or in a small cell waiting to meet their maker.

Honestly, I could do without yearly elections. What I could do with more of is a way to remove the corrupt that we did not elect.

Our HOA is a microcosm of a fascistic dictatorship. They treat the residents like sheep and themselves like blessed holy shepherds.

https://archive.is/AZ8mp is the link for the elections NYT article, it seems to be the only page with a Chinese translation option attached to it.?
Thanks. It looks like they changed the title to "The Worst People Run for Office. It’s Time for a Better Way."
what's with the Chinese translation??
No idea tbh. Perhaps their shit reads better in their Master's language?
I honest to God can't even tell if you are being sarcastic / satirical or not.... Did these articles actually get published??
We are a constitutional Republic !
I guarantee you they will try. Maybe thats when the military will step in

Came to post "ok, and...?"
