This is exactly how Communist China deals with dissadents. Canada is not a free country now. And, the US does not have free and fair elections.
The election system is so fraught with manipulation that it’s a joke.
Billions, even hundreds of billions of dollars are at stake. The political future of men with a huge ego and all their entourage that lives off them are at stake.
Folks consider it conspiratorial, the MSM makes it sound ridiculous, government tries to pretend there is some system and over sight making sure things are fair, but the truth is with stakes so high, it’s actually those that think folks aren’t trying to game the system that are out of their mind.
The manipulation of elections goes back to soon after this nation was founded: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrymandering (1812 when is was already in the news)
Today, there are 1,000 ways they can manipulate elections and you see it happening right now in plain sight as they attempt to remove Trump from the ballot. And yet some people want to believe that folks aren’t trying to “rig the system.”
