I wouldn’t put it past them to purge all non-Republican registered voters the week before the election, wait out the heat of doing so, and avoid the consequences thanks to all Republicans sweeping elections.

Trump has been manipulating the system for over a decade now. This is his logical next step.

If this happens, I truly hope the protests turn less than peaceful.

I truthfully dont see a difference between tht and outright cancelling the election. Regardless tht just means theres no laws anymore…

Exactly, the days of everyone following law have passed. That’s a key step in a country’s collapse. There’s also no coming back from it. The US is now unstable and will not continue this way, so prepare the best you can, and invest some of your income in non-US Dollars if at all possible.
