A potential plan by Republican leaders to steal the 2024 presidential election. The plan involves delaying the certification of election results in key battleground states, potentially decreasing the overall number of electors appointed and allowing Donald Trump to win the presidency through a contingent election, whereby the House of Representatives, not the Electoral College, determines the president.

    You’re right, he didn’t outright say it was a coup, he said it was the second revolution.

    Everything you said after that is complete bullshit though

      In refence to how they were going to reshape the executive after they win the election. Calling it a coup is just outright lying about what was said, as what they claim they are going to do will be perfectly legal. It’s scary enough on it’s own. Trying to paint it as if they are openly claiming they are going to steal the government is just dishonest. Why defend this, I have no idea.

          to steal the executive branch of the government by illegally (at the state level, in defiance of state constitutions and statutes) disenfranchising entire states that vote the way Republicans don’t want

          [https://www.politifact.com/article/2024/sep/19/fact-checking-kamala-harris-ad-about-black-america/](Project 2025, the guidebook of presidential policy recommendations written by conservative activists, provides few details about its voting recommendations, making it hard to say how voting rights could be affected if the proposals were to be enacted.)

          I hate defending the heritage foundation, but my love for reality exceeds that hate.

          And they have openly claimed on numerous occasions that they intend to take the executive regardless of what the vote reflects

          Of course you don’t link to any of that. But, either way, I’m responding to the blatant lying about what they said right here.

          I have no idea what you’re on about, but I’ve got you tagged at some prior point as “blathering idiot,” so I assume you’re just doing what you usually do. Blather on.

          If this is any indication of the way you “debate,” I wear that tag as a badge of honor. Thank you.
