As a cohort, the American gerontocracy is uniquely shitty. You almost have to admire the boomers’ tenacity to destroy everything before they die.

Biden already made an admission that he knows these issues are going to occur.

Acknowledgement and action are different though. I assume that we're going to fuck around and find out because no one wants to get confrontational with the Republicans over it.

Dems don't even need to come up with a plan - the Venezuelan opposition just showed them what to do.

Unfortunately, Venezuela also provided a roadmap to the Repubs. In the end, it may come down to exactly what you said: combat.

Georgia helped Biden win in 2020. Trump specifically asked Georgian officials to break the law to help him win in one of his many "perfect phone calls." They refused and the citizens rebuked Trump's attempt. That state is very much in play for Democrats (at least for POTUS EC votes) if they can control some of the meddling.

Even if they did give him Georgia he still would've lost.

I'm not advocating against taking this very seriously, I just think that's a funny fact.

Every single vote is important. Do not let Nazis gaslight you into thinking otherwise

TFG realistically can't win without Georgia. Almost all of his paths to victory center around the state.

Election deniers is a bullshit term for people that are already preparing for the loss. Traitors is more fitting. Terrorists works too.

The word you're looking for is "euphemism". The media always does this garbage to make the party of traitors seen like they have a point

Most notably, the law removed Raffensperger, who resisted Trump’s demands to “find 11,780 votes” to overturn Biden’s victory, as chair and voting member of the state board, which oversees voting rules and election certification. Instead, it gave Republicans in the heavily gerrymandered legislature more power to choose the board’s members, which allowed election deniers to gain a controlling majority of the body this year

Man, Georgia is going to be a cluster fuck this year!

Well, Biden said publicly that he didn't expect a peaceful transfer of power if Trump loses. One would hope that means that contingency plans are being drawn up for every possible legal challenge or disruption, all the way up to putting down a violent coup attempt and apprehending conspirators at the highest levels of government. Given the insanity we've already seen, and the unmistakable warning signs that keep popping upl around us today, to do anything less would be pure negligence.

Unfortunately, plans like that aren't something that can really be talked about publicly. We just have to wait and see and hope that Biden isn't going to fiddle while Rome burns.

I would expect Georgia is one of the states where it's illegal to give water to people in line to vote.

Are there others? Right after democrats picked up 2 senate seats in 2020 the republicans created a bunch of election laws, this being one of them.

I don't know how many states did that bullshit. I just know terrible right-wing ideas usually spread, so I assume if there's one there's probably more.
