The left and its mocking bird media are fond of asking whether the GOP and MAGA movement will “accept the results of the election.” Their question’s assumptions are two-fold: one, there will be no voter “irregularities” in the election; and, two, the Democrat candidate will win the presidency.
Their first assumption would constitute a historical first. America has a long history of such electoral irregularities by both parties. In addition to the Jim Crow civil rights violations against African-Americans starting during Reconstruction, various “bosses” from both parties orchestrated patronage systems designed to facilitate electoral wins by any means fair or foul to keep the graft gravy train running: phantom voters, ballot box stuffing, multiple voting by individual voters in the same election, etc.
In the 18th Century, New York was a hotbed of “bossism.” One of the earliest and most successful was former Whig and later GOP boss, Senator Thurlow Weed. Later, and ironically, the chief executive who signed the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act was a product of New York Senator and state GOP boss Roscoe Conkling’s machine, namely President Chester A. Arthur, who was known as “the Gentleman Boss.” Meanwhile, in New York City, William M. “Boss” Tweed helmed the Democrats’ legendary Tammany Hall.
Yet, while the above instances were predicated on greed, today ideology and fear can spark the baser instincts of many politically driven individuals to “win” elections by any means necessary. Thus, in our politically divisive time, wherein many on both sides of the aisle believe the defeat of their party will result in the death of democracy and/or the republic, it is naïve to believe not one solitary individual, be they left or right, would endeavor to engage in voter irregularities to win.

The question is monumentally stupid .
They didn’t last time.
They won’t this time.
They hate democracy. So do I. But they hate a Republican form of government too. Of course they won’t respect it.
No, Kamala will accept the alternate elector slates of the States Biden loses.
I bet RFK gets more votes than Biden. Biden might be third.
I bet RFK gets more votes than Biden. Biden might be third.
They won’t this time.
This. I agree completely.
This year’s holiday season is going to be spent watching massive chaos unfold on television.
The Pussy Hat brigades of 2016 and the BLM riots of 2020 were nothing compared to what’s coming this year.
It’s quite possible that Trump’s first official act will be to declare Martial Law to restore order.
Anybody remember the LA Riots in the spring of ‘92?
Imagine that on a national scale in multiple cities, combined with simultaneous attacks on infrastructure, threats from hostile foreign powers and the never-ending scare mongering from the talking heads on tv, and I think we have an idea of what’s coming.
This must be a rhetorical question because the “left” are an implacable, evil entity, against whom we must persevere. It’s a matter of survival. We can’t ignore them. we’ve got to battle and beat them. That’s all!
Screw the left. They arte fascists accordingto the historical definition. Thats is to say that they are monority and ethnic natioalist socialist who want to transform America, through illegal alien based demographic warfare,Obamas field of expertise ( Arab Spring etc.), and destroy our energy based economy while simultabeously destroyiong the middle class.
America does not want to become the ;efts vision of their Utopia: “ The UNited Socialist Islamic States of Zimbabwe.”
America rejects that Utopia.
As far as they left respecting ‘Democracy.” they will not because they would sooner use fascist technique buoyed by the principles of Saul ALinsky, weaponized federal agencies against the People.
Why should we care of the peft respects democracy. We do not. The oeft in America requires total destruction of its unAmerican, violent, unConstitutional policies.And the left of America needs to disappear into the dust bin of history, ridiculed and forgotten.
They don’t now. Why would they start?
NO. When have they ever?
No. They did not respect it when Trump won in 2016. Officially they mounted the phony “Russian collusion” agenda, in Congress, and the related “Trump impeachment” schemes, while outside on the streets of Washington D.C. they held constant protests that often turned to riots.
They are going to burn anything they can down France style.
No.
The media is run by the government state. The media will claim that the left is just "protecting democracy " in destroying a Trump administration.
Every Docket in every federal and state court will be cleared for "Defendant #1" to fill every courtroom.
The Democrat/Communist Party Left respects democracy ... but only as long as the people vote the “right way”.
Well yes actually. A lynch mob is a democracy and so is a gang rape.
They never have.
Why would they? They never have.
