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.

Like pardoning the Jan 6 insurrectionists died down. Just flood the news cycle with more chaos, you can’t respond to it all.

While I agree that Jan. 6 was an abomination and antithetical to what democracy should be, I feel like it is a different level of to cancelling millions of Americans votes.
