My what a clever response

The hostage letter formatting is quite charming too

Now you hit the nail on the head. The Democrats, imo, really would like to see the Constitution burned and start over with their rules and their rules only.

If that happens, the Republic is indeed dead and we will never get it back.

Hopefully before that would happen a number of the Red States would form a new and separate Republic. That would end up with war in the streets.

whats amazing to me is how many fail to see and acknowledge the UniParty (D) and UniParty (R) right under their noses.

They “get away with it” by pretending a Red-Blue game while they are really united in an ologarchic dictatorship

A number of states have signed onto a pact that guarantees their Electoral College votes to the winner of the popular vote, no matter the outcome in their individual states.

then why have a vote? wait, that’s the plan, one more and done...

the electoral college is an element of American cultural heritage.

Lets say manage to do that WITHOUT an amendment per the constitution. Lets say they pack the court, which they intend to do.

All that happens, right?

Therefore, the states that want to can simply say since there is no longer a constitution and the contract has been broken, we no longer abide by any laws or rules issued by Washington DC.

It would take a Constitutional amendment if we still had a Constitution.

Too bad both parties abrogated it when they swore in the ineligible Kenyan from Indonesia.

They need 2/3 of each house of Congress, then 3/4 of the states.

You mean re-electing Assistant Democrats is not the path to success that we keep being told it is?

We are rapidly reaching a point where the Democrats will attempt to arrogate to themselves the power to amend the Constitution by Decree.

They have taken control of the voting procedure nationally and can produce whatever totals they want now but they still worry that that all might be circumvented in 2022 somehow so they will try to establish unassailable power in every way they can think of before that election..

**************

Pretty much standard in the world today. Those that got
control make the rules. But history shows past history
to be much the same.

My message to the Dems: If you abolish the Electoral College then you might as well abolish the Senate and get rid of Statehood as State Sovereignty and the 10th Amendment becomes meaningless.

They'd probably love to...except the Senate they would change to nationwide Senate "districts."

Let them do it.

It’ll just bring us closer to civil war and the resulting break up that will divide decent people from the tyrants and sycophants.

As long as Arkansas makes the right decision... and I think they will, I’ll be ok.

The rest of the country - if they are very lucky - will join back when they see the results.

Like north and south Korea.

Why is this BREAKING news?

We knew this all was going to roll out, fast, the day after they stole the election.

Old news....or, at least Expected news.
