      As based as this would be, I know that it won’t be worth it because fascists will have their golden opportunity to ethnically cleanse the south and turn the hyperborean republic of Dixie into a white ethnostate.

        The hope is mostly that if the us collapses it will remove pressure from the rest of the world and the global south will be able to fix at least some of the problems america created. All of us in america will be fucked, but hopefully the rest of the world will be able to take action once the american boot is off their neck.

        Pretty grim regardless.

    The federal government, under the current Democrat-led regime, has utterly failed, and continues to fail, in a suspicious manner, in its absolute duty to adequately protect the Republican nominee for president

    Somehow the Secret Service’s fuckups are Biden’s fault.

      I mean, Biden did install a former PepsiCo security exec to run the SS. But more than that also, admittedly, fuck Genocide Joe, I’m aware and unconcerned that I have a bias but may AmeriKKKa burn to the ground. Nazi infighting is good infighting

        In that case (extremely) critical support to Genocide Joe for weakening the Secret Service and allowing openings for people to take shots at the ghouls.

        I thought so. Though why they are even doing so, i would suspect in the “most democratic country” people at least voted themselves so they know how it looks. In Poland anyone claiming that would be ridiculed because everyone is on the list, you need to show the documents and sign to get the card.

          It’s pretty much the exact same thing in the US. Even if you don’t have to show a state ID/driver’s license, you have to be on the list and usually need to show something. You can only get on the list by registering, which requires US citizenship.

          The apparent source of this propaganda is based around the concept that some areas allow people with only a Permanent Residency but who have not yet gotten citizenship to vote in some local elections, like school board members, mayors, or on local referenda. This still notably doesn’t apply to anyone who isn’t a permanent resident or citizen nor does it allow permanent residents to vote for the president, or even moderately important figures like congresspeople or governors.

          Years of fascist propaganda. Republicans have been explaining away their losses by blaming it on widespread voter fraud for a while now. Typically they claim illegal immigrants are allowed to vote, and that democrats submit fake votes from dead people.

            I wouldn’t be surprised if there was widespread election fraud but I don’t think it’s the local unregistered migrants voting for 99 percent Hitler

              In 2020 there were something like 600 confirmed voter fraud cases in the states that Trump was contesting. There is possibly rigging going on behind the scenes as electronic voting machines have been repeatedly shown to have massive security vulnerabilities, but the fact the republicans aren’t pushing to go back to paper suggests that if there is real voting fraud, they’re fine with it.

    bruh this is stupid by the Republicans and going nowhere. Assassination attempts have never mattered for whether or not the ‘election is valid,’ and usually under a more competent candidate surviving an assassination attempt is an active boon for the campaign (ask Tedward Roosevelt, though he still lost to WIILLSOOOONN).

    They should’ve gone with challenging the Kamala palace coup overriding the primary results for Biden without 25th amendmenting the prez first. There’s surely some fuckery with that which could be exploited by their ghoulish megacorp lawyers (which will be fought by the Democrats’ more different ghoulish megacorp lawyers
