Remember that pact that states have entered, where their electoral votes go to whoever gets the popular?
Have a few red states manage to leave the Dem candidate off the ballot and that backfires.
For a multitude of reasons, the law among them, this the DeSantis 0lan cannot be allowed to happen.
Is that supposed to go into effect for this election? I believe it'll only happen once enough states have signed on to decide the election result, and AFAIK that hasn't happened yet. Am I wrong?
Correct, but those laws/bills may need a fresh look now that this is on the table.
this is why he's losing outside of florida and why he needed to purge thousands of voters in florida to win in florida
Of course he's looking to make a case. The difference here is that he can't actually make a credible one, all he can do is just say "Because reasons" and hope nobody looks too closely at it.
“you could make a case” = making shit up
Yes please, remove both Trump and Biden. Let the young people come and run the country.
Go on then. This should be good. 🍿
Whatever Biden wasn't going to win Florida anyway this is just political posturing for 2028 he knows he isn't winning this year and he's term limited in Florida so he's got to keep his name in the national news somehow
Not whatever, this is fascism trampling our system
They're all threatening stuff like this to give cover to the Supreme Court when they rule you can't block trump from the ballot. Oh my, look at what they are saying, it would be such a can of worms if we let states block trump for insurrection! Oh no! We can't block trump, so sad. Too bad.
do it then. if you've got some way to do it, do it. otherwise shut up.
Narrator: “He couldn’t.”
Europeans and generally the entire world is looking at the us and rolling their eyes.
We'd be pointing and laughing at you for how petty and pathetic your politicians are, if it wasn't for the fact that the US is still the biggest player, and you know, if these evil sad sacks win, it will be a christo racist state with nukes and an end of the world fantasy...
So seriously, can democrat voters finally do what they always fail to do, and just FUCKING VOTE ALREADY. and yes vote Biden. Yes, Biden sucks, big time, might be the worst democrat president in ages, but he's NOT TRUMP.
You gonna bark all day, little doggy?
Yeah, so two states drop trump for actual credible reasons, wtih which you can agree or disagree, but you can't deny that they're at least credible.
Now Florida (and which other state again?) are doing this for the same reason as a tantrum throwing child "wants the same toy as that other kid".
It just struck me who he reminds me of. Bizarre insecurity about an appendage, oddly repetitive and mundane conversationalist, trouble for kids. DeSantis is uncle jack.
The logic, or lack there of, is astounding in these people.
He just can’t stop fucking up, can he?
