Trump with the help of autocrats atound the world can take the presidency even if he loses the popular votes. The state legislatures and Supreme Court he controls can award him the election unless it is a landslide rejection - which at this time does not seem likely.
By ruling only congress can enforce the 14th amendment SCOTUS just made Trump president and positioned him to pardon himself once elected. American democracy died today unless Trump is defeated by a landslide and loses his expected challenge of the loss.
It may be over. The freedom caucus has positioned Putin for an unstoppable invasion of Europe. Putin, Trump and their allies are united in their determination to end democracy in favor of rule by rich people who they believe are inherently superior to others.
SCOTUS will rule that Trump cannot be excluded from a ballot under the Constituion unless and until he is covicted and loses all possible appeals related to the insurrection clause. Trump stalls every case with appeals and counter suits. Trump's delay strategy will work.
@JoeBiden If SCOTUS declares Trump the winner, prepare for Russia overunning NATO members, Isreal destroyed by Iran and terrorist allies, annexation of Taiwan by China, nuclear destruction of South Korea, & suspension of the right to protest in a U.S. under marshall law.
Russia and Iran have a coordinated strategy to change the current world order. Iran and Putin are stoking Hamas hoping for for a regional war to divert suport for Ukraine. With support from the Freedom Caucus their straregy is working. China will be the only winner of a WW3.
Putin predicts a Trump presidency, the fall of Ukraine and the weakening of NATO. The 2nd next invasion will be a NATO affiliated country. If Trump wins WW3 appears to be inevitable.
If Jordan is elected speaker Trump, Putin, and Hamas will control what bills come the House for consideration. Prepare for a government shutdown, loss of support for Ukraine, and capitulation to Hamas terrorists.
@AssociationsNow The nonprofit grapevine is beginning to suggest that many of the folks complaining about toxic workplaces are a prime source of the toxicity.
Trump relected. Pardons himself & others. Prosecutors fired on trumped up charges. Trump withdraws $ from NATO. Putin takes Ukraine & continues thru Balkans to Europe. Trump say not our problem. Protests prompt marshall law. Trump does private trade deal with Russia & China.
Trump will continue to ignore orders restricting attempts to intimidate witneses and will continue to disrespect judges and prosecutors all the way to contempt of court charges as a way to get his predicament before SCOTUS as a first amendment dispute.
Florida, Texas, Alabama, and other states trying to whitewash history books and courses, reverse civil rights gains, and suppress non-white voting ironically demonstrate the validity of academic "critical race theory" they so fear. Their behavior proves the truths they deny.
Does Alabama's refusal to follow a SCOTUS order now allow all states to ignore any Federal court ruling they do not like? Will the executive branch enforce the judicial branch's order as the Constitution contemplates. Probably depends on who is President.
Adolf Hitler regained power after a first loss, purged himself of all charges, replaced government officals at all levels with his fascist sycophants & killed or jailed all opponents. What happened next is undeniable history. " It cant happen here" is an assumption.
@CNN@ErinBurnett Unless Harris earns a perception of being presidential among independents - if Trump's nominated he could win.
If he wins Atlanta's indictment will be his big worry since he will pardon himself of all federal charges. That's the reason for his court stalling and focus on GA.
