What in the skibidi rizzless ohio did y'all do to my upvotes?

Depends if you are 19 or 119?

(119 is technically a "teen" ager? no?)

I understand the sentinment but understand that a majority of voters voted for them.

Americans have decided they'd be willing to risk fascism for a chance of the gas prices drop by 5 cents.

They die then Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is president. He will baselessly claim the democrats shot down the plane.

There will be a nationwide purge of any non-maga-republicans.

I disagree with violence until the elections are no longer free and fair.

Well its not exactly fair since the corporate media is siding with trump and sane-washing him, but elections are still, for the most part, legitimate.

Meaning, a majority of people actually support trump.

If you want to violently rebel, know that the people who didnt vote are mot gonna join your violent revolt.

If every Harris voter fight every Trump voter, they have a bigger number.

Besides, they have control of the military soon.

Dont destroy the system that still allows for elections until those elections have proven to be illegitimate.

Nobody knows who will rise out of the ashes of a revolt. You might end up with something worse.

Dude, if you quit, a Maga is taking your place. The last thing we need is more extremist infiltration of the government.

Stay, we need you. Your country needs you.

If there is any shady things happenning, we need you to be a whisleblower.

My opinion is:

Somewhere beween 2016 Trump and Erdogan-era Turkey. But if democrats dont win midterms and 2028 election (if there even is a 2028 election), then we go beyond Erodogan's Turkey into Russia territory.

Very bad, but the US has Federalism, we might be able to survive if state governments resist. There would be so much damage to US institutions, but if democrats win future elections, we can still save this.

I'm gonna mostly copy paste my answer from another question I answered:

What will happen is the judge would give a slap on the wrist sentence like a fine and call it a day.

Because the alternative is the judge giving a prison sentence and then the president goes “The NY Courts have made their decision, now let them enforce it” essentially creating a State vs Federal government political crisis.

Spoilers, the Federal government wins.

What if NY gonna do, send agents to somehow get past the SS to arrest the president?

If that was even attempted, the president would invoke insurrection act and arrest the governor/judge/ whoever gave the order for the arrest and flip the narrative, claiming the state officials are attempting a coup.


Edit: Also, giving him a prison sentence before he takes office wouldn't do anything either. Even if the Biden-led SS cooperates, on Jan 20 at noon he is president and the military is getting him out, he'd the order the arrest of NY state officials.

We're about to see how strong federalism really is. Federalism would either be the last defence against a autocracizing Federal government, or prove to be another joke.

(idk if I even spelled autocracizing correctly, too tired of this bullshit to spell)

I dont think he needs to pardon himself.

He cannot pardon himself anyways for state crimes.
