Dumb and desperate enough to believe the lies, meek enough to go with the flow, or corrupt enough to perpetuate the lies in hopes of wealth and power - 2024's Republican Party. The conservatives who don't fit one of those three templates either left long ago or are in the process of leaving following the primaries.
Americans: We need the second amendment to defend ourselves from a tyrannical government!
Tyrannical government arrives.
Americans: VOTE FOR THE TYRANNICAL GOVERNMENT OR ELSE!11!1!!!!!

Sometimes you just have to let things fail.
They may not fail on their own; polling shows Trump as having a decent chance of winning in the general election this fall. It takes actively working to stop the Republicans from holding power. That means checking to make sure your voter registration hasn't been purged, volunteering, andif you can afford it, providing financial support to the Biden campaign and Democrats in close house and close senate campaigns.

This might be why Amendment 14 Section 3 was supposed to be self-executing. But I'm not American so what do I know?
Terrifying, but I also know the election deniers have been tanking elections that the GOP should’ve easily won.
That's why they're also trying to manipulate the voting. E.g. making it really difficult to vote, or suddenly removing loads of people.
