    80’s Republicans were already evil and stupid, but at least they would absolutely lynch 20’s Republicans for treason

    I would do the same, and the first thing I would do is declare the GOP a terrorist organization and start mowing down their leaders and media figures.

    So fuck off, Senator.

    Someone representing Ohio saying they don’t support democracy in swing states? Shocking. Anyways I hope he gets cholera and dies of it. The sooner the better.

          Which he did. You’re just too dense to understand transitive properties of words. Like how him saying the slate electors and you not understanding that actually would end up being a coup. That’s straight up an anti democracy system nobody voted for. What he’s advocating for is a coup of the current form of government. That’s what that fucking word means you trolling little dipshit.

            You mean state’s choosing an alternate form of election which is within their right? The constitution does not mandate how state elections work.

              There’s nothing in the constitution about how child pornography is illegal, but it is. You understand how laws work, right?

              This is my last response to feeding the troll.

      Whatever that means

      It means forget the votes, and forget democracy. In other words, do a coup. The thing you are adamantly arguing against.

      I hope someone’s paying you to spread disinformation, and you’re not simply a blithering imbecile.

        A coup would be a violent and unlawful seizure of power. My reading of slate electors is that they wanted to change the state election processes which is within their rights as state government. The constitution does not mandate how state’s conduct things.

          Holy shit, that’s what you are. You’re one of the Alex Jones idiots. Now it makes sense.

          Yeah, good luck with any of your nonsense holding up in court. You’re worse than the sovereign citizen people. At least they mostly keep to themselves with all their made up nonsense.

          Not like you. You’re here just showing your ass in public.

          A coup doesn’t have to be violent. It can utilize existing rules if it breaks their spirit or the ability to change them.

          A coup is a forceful seizure of governmental power that subverts the existing system of power. That includes shit like this.

          A coup can be military but also from other bodies.

          In this case it would be a self-coup since a lawfully elected power would be attempting to maintain power by illegal means.

      He said IF he was Vice President in 2020 he would have told contested states to do slates of electors.

      how do you not realize this is a coup? dear god man, how does discarding voted electors for a new slate based on party lines not equal a coup?
