    Are you just going to skip over the main part of what I said there?

    this is going to backfire when republicans start going after the democratic nominee for anything they imagine and they control the Secretary of State and state Supreme Court.

    This is the important part but you’re just going to not address it?

    Is it too hard?

      I genuinely cannot tell if you’re this obtuse or just trolling for attention so I’ll give this one last shot and then I am done with you and your ridiculous statements.

      this is going to backfire when republicans start going after the democratic nominee for anything they imagine and they control the Secretary of State and state Supreme Court.

      This argument is “don’t uphold the laws and rules of the US government because some group might retaliate”. Do you honestly not understand how absolutely bonkers that is? Not to mention that it doesn’t matter if these individual states uphold the 14th amendment on this issue because as your own question earlier pointed out, they are already engaging in retaliatory behavior with the impeachment against Biden, which is going nowhere.

      What you either don’t or are choosing not to understand is that these Republicans who are playing at these games right now are stuck. They cannot attack the Biden presidency and the Democratic Party within the same system of laws and rules of government because of existing checks and balances. They cannot completely subvert it because then it removes any legitimacy of the laws and system of government which is the one thing they deprive power from.

      You also skipped over the part about States rights and elections being run by the individual states, not the federal government. This is the important part but you’re just going to not address it? Is it too hard? Or is it because those questions about States rights from my last comment were lifted word for word from one of your comments elsewhere on Lemmy and you got yourself stuck with contradictions?
