I don’t even know what else to add to this headline. This is so fucked up and tragic scary and infuriating and it will in no way slow the resistance.

    Did you just wake up, Rip Van Winkle? These people don’t care about “mechanisms.” WTF? If he wants to suspend elections, he’ll do it, make up some cockamamie excuse, and every MAGA will buy it.

    All he has to do is declare Martial Law, and he can do anything he wants, or at least he will feel that he can, and he will exploit that illegitimate power mercilessly. When we’re under Martial Law, suspending elections will be the least of our problems.

    I was also predicting that he would definitely attack Venezuela for their oil, and plenty of people disparaged me for that, too, and here we are. I’ve taken a lot of heat for many of my predictions that have come true over the last decade. It seems that many people still don’t believe that Donald Trump is far worse than we even know, and that however bad we think he might behave, he will always surprise us, and be worse than we expected.

    He’s already been “joking,” multiple times, that he thinks they should suspend the Midterm. We have already seen many, many times, that’s how he floats an idea in advance, getting people ready for it. He’s going to try to suspend the Midterm Election. He has to. His life and freedom literally depends on it.
