Trump Can't Cancel Elections. But He Can Do This.

“President Trump has dropped unsubtle hints about his desire to cancel the November elections,” writes Sean Morales-Doyle, the director of the Brennan Center’s voting rights and elections program.

While this has caused understandable concern, “it’s election subversion, not cancellation, that is the real authoritarian move. The goal is to keep elections going but without unseating those in power.”

While “the campaign to rig our elections is well underway,” Sean writes, there are ways to fight back. “It will be incumbent on all of us — election officials, advocates, state law enforcement and voters — to see the administration’s efforts for what they are and to fight back.”

DRAFT EXECUTIVE ORDER; TRUMP WILL DIRECT THE MILITARY TO SEIZE VOTING MACHINES AND REWRITE THE RESULTS. INVOLVES TAKING BANK ACCOUNTS OF DEMOCRATIC OPPOSITION. REBLOG AND SAVE THIS. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU WILL EVER SEE.

AUTHENTICATION ON PAGE. THIS WAS TAKEN FROM THE EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT. CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF CONFIRMING THIS TO NEWS OUTLETS.

The thought of Elon musk’s ugly little murine ass just rooting and truffle sniffing through all of our legal documents like a Norway rat burrowing into the fine wood of an old Victorian farmhouse makes me physically Ill btw. Somebody set out the poison already, Jesus Christ.

Trump's trial "is a fulfillment of his rights"

"That Trump will be tried for his coup attempt is not a violation of his rights. It is a fulfillment of his rights. It is the grace of the American republic. In other systems, when your coup attempt fails, what follows is not a trial."

--Timothy Snyder, PhD, Levin Professor of History, Yale University
