It was Johnson who destroyed black families with his Not-so-Great Society.
Bumpt
But Johnson was JFK’S Vice president, and he lured JFK into the kill zone in Dallas.
If this bogus “election” stands and Harris becomes president, our first commie President will tear the country apart.
I’d much rather see it torn apart keeping Trump in office and keeping the commies out than let it be torn apart by a commie POTUS.
I think this is true.
I have always suspected Lyndon Johnson of being the dark force behind the assassination.
Historically, the way that civil wars happen, we’re looking at about 9% of the men in that figure you mentioned in comment #42. That’s a very large number men, who could do complete damage.
There’s also been much talk about disarming the populace due to fears of attacks or some kind of uprising. It wouldn’t make any difference towards decreased damage. It would be more likely to the effect of prolonging the problem with violence ramping up much more.
I’ve read quite a bit about what has called “fourth generation warfare” and by other names. That general problem (civil war within the same country as homeland military forces) hasn’t been solved to this day.
Given enough increasing concern among the rebels (including increasing casualties, imprisonments, etc.), such conflict would be unwinnable for the side most desiring to keep the economy and infrastructure from collapsing. Also, foreign participation would only heat such conflict up much more.
It could be far uglier for everyone involved than most people would imagine at this point in time.
This IS the SCOTUS this is OUR election system the MOST SACRED thing we have in this republic NO WAY they don’t see the seriousness of this NO WAY!!!
This. Thanks to the behavior of The Left during the past four years. This country is irreparably ruptured, and this election is the Last Straw.
Whoever is declared the winner, the other side will never ever accept it.
On the bright side, The Left has proven during this past week that while they were horrible losers, they’re even worse winners. So no one should have any reason whatsoever to try to appease them by crowning illegitimate Joe the legitimate winner.
It would probably be over and done within a surprisingly short amount of time, by the way, in about the time that it would take someone to starve to death without contemporary conveniences like energy, communications, etc.
Awake in 2000 for sure. The SCOTUS then had a ruling basis because the Fl. Supreme court overstepped it’s boundaries in law . There is no such allegation this time except Pa. Trump wins his point and MAY win the vote when the count is done according to Pa. law, but he still loses.
What other law is being misapplied? Strange anomolies don’t count.
The election of 1876 is the path to victory.
In 1876 the state legislatures chose the electors they wanted (more complicated but this is the simplified version).
The Republicans control both houses of the state legislature in every contested state except Nevada.
They just need to support the Republican electors and then the Republican majority in Congress (one vote per state under Article 2 Section 1 of the Constitution) and the President is re-elected.
No complex legal decisions required.

They’ve already marched with a banner saying “We don’t want Biden. We want revenge.” (Might have been Seattle)
They tagged the Dem HQ in Portland with “F*** Biden* *No Presidents*
They’ve told the Dems they want everything for themselves and nothing for anyone white (I forget the rhetoric, so that’s a paraphrase)
Black men in general did not attend the Biden celebrations in NYC.
The media is simply taking the initiative to make Trump look like the sore loser. They emphasize *no evidence/little evidence*. The attorneys know how to address this: it is an equal protection case: 14th Amendment and Civil Rights Act violations.
They did this in the Civil War. They did this in the cities in the 1920s. They did this in the 60s and in the 90s. They did this in 2000. There is precedent.
They are all about messaging, but this time, the people are not listening....or not enough of them.
What other law...
__________________________
14th Amendment
The Fourteenth Amendment addresses many aspects of citizenship and the rights of citizens. The most commonly used — and frequently litigated — phrase in the amendment is “equal protection of the laws”, which figures prominently in a wide variety of landmark cases, including Brown v. Board of Education (racial discrimination), Roe v. Wade (reproductive rights), Bush v. Gore (election recounts), Reed v. Reed (gender discrimination), and University of California v. Bakke (racial quotas in education). See more...

Amendment XIV
Section 1.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Section 2.
Representatives shall be apportioned among the several states according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the executive and judicial officers of a state, or the members of the legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such state, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such state.
Section 3.
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
Section 4.
The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any state shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
Section 5.
The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
