And I think it safe to say a lot of people believe the primary reason Trump is being pursued legally is because he is running. Those people would be wrong.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The points you are raising are absurd. Yes, if I cant see my vote accounted for on a list with the total votes amongst all other voters votes then I would never know. I think a good way for everyone to understand is sit in a room of 20 people. Run a fair and checkable by everyone vote that you think is correct. Then ask everyone if they are happy everyone got their vote counted and its recorded correctly with no doubt or reliance on trust. . You will soon reason through which methods are checkable by all and which are not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You fail to account for the incredibly strong negatives that Trump has in a general election. So you're suggesting infecting DeSantis with that. If Trump is convicted, a strong majority would not want that traitor pardoned. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have anything recent (besides an opinion piece) that supports your "incredibly strong negatives" comment? I doubt very much there is a "strong majority" that thinks him a traitor. I would guess it would be the same strong majority that supports gender-resignment for children. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozimoron Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) The point here is that the Dems will vote for any candidate because they know they won't fill the swamp with sycophants, surrender Ukraine to Putin, treat the job as their own business empire and sell foreign policy to the highest bidder. Not will they employ their own kids in highly paid government jobs where they can use their position to enrich themselves further. The Republicans only have Trump. The party is so gutted that only spineless cowards are left, hoping that Trump goes down but too afraid to say so.

Many were openly supportive of Hitler the same way many of these Magadonian types are supportive of Putin. Thankfully, such anti American, anti democracy traitors aren't the majority. But the tragic part is that Putin or whoever replaces him is set on keeping up their genocidal war until the 2024 U.S. election because they know if Trump or a similar maga type wins, support for Ukraine will dry up.
