Man, for a party that is so power hungry they sure do know how to insure they're going to lose. I mean they already accomplished that by pissing off all the women not wanting babies by taking away abortion rights. That wasn't enough though, now they're pissing off all the women who do want babies but have a hard time having them the normal way, by ruling that if any frozen empryos are harmed it's the same as murder causing IVF Clinics to shut down. Since they routinely create more then need since it's not an exact science. Meaning there are always going to be some excess frozen embryos needing to be destroyed at some point.

As if that's not enough there is talk about also outlawing contraception, interracial marriage or the right to marry who you want and the right to drcide who an individual can have sex with. Of course all that's on top of openly working with Russia and promoting a candidate that wants to destroy democracy in favor of Authoritarianism.

I'm thinking they won't be satisfied until they've pissed off everyone and Democrats have a 100% Majority in Congress and controls the White House at least long enough to have a 100% Liberal Supreme Court.

You knoww, there are some hopeful signs of some people coming to their senses and finally having second thoughts on re-electing Trump, although not enough for my liking. It's got me to thinking though, are we as a country too focused on Trump and not seeing him re-elected that we're ignoring a danger as big if not bigger then Trump?

What I'm talking about is all the other people running for office on the republican ticket and most especially any of them who either participated in the big lie (election theft 2020) and/or who were all in on promoting the big lie (with maybe the exception of those who were just to afraid to go against Trump but otherwise knew the big lie was false.) The reason I mention this is there is still a viable way that the 2024 election can be stolen (much in the same way as Trump tried to do with the 2020 election). Without outlining how it's still possible let me just say that the only way it can happen is while the Republicans still control the House of Representatives. There are enough people that have worked their way into positions in key states, that have to do with running elections in those states. They could potentially cause enough doubt that the electors of those states get thrown out where it becomes impossible for either candidate to get enough electoral votes to claim the office of President. If that happens then it falls on Congress to decide who wins and they wouldn't have to go by the popular vote. Since the Republicans are still in the majority and will be at least until some time in January 2025 they could theoretically give the election to Trump even if he lost the popular vote.

The worst part about it is those people are already in the right positions to pull that off. Now mind you it's not a guarenteed thing. There are a number of things that would have to happen just right but it is something that could potentially happen. Despite that though, when election time rolls around this year I hope that everyone as they vote, not only makes sure that Trump doesn't get re-elected but also insures that any Congressperson or Senator or State office candidates do not win in 2024. We have to make sure that the political apparatus to make such things happen fails, in order to have confidence thatthis perversion that has taken over the Republican party is removed from office.

I know it might sound far fetched and like I'm just being overly paranoid but all one needs to do is look at how things are going in the Republican party in the state of Michigan. There is a woman who was the chairperson of the Republican party. She was voted out of that position last year. However instead of accepting that she was defeated she is refusing to accept defeat and is pulling a Trump by claiming it was all fraud. To that extent she has refused to vacate her position and somehow the State has been unable to solve the problem in court. This has created a situation where there are now two people claiming to be the official and legitimate chairperson of the Republican party in Michigan. Amazingly the woman who was voted out still has control of the Republican Party's bank accounts (although they're near bankrupt so her having that control doesn't mean all that much). Still this has created a situation where there are two different Chairperson's operating out of two different offices, and in trying to out maneuver each other this year they are not having one primary but two and if that wasn't enough confusion they're also going to be having two caucuses. So obviously there is a good chance there will be a lot of controversy over what the official results will be for Michigan elections and for the plan I'm eluding to above all it would take is for a similar level of confusion and dysfunction to occur in a handful of other key states.

So hopefully all democracy loving people that wish to see the system of government continue in the way our founding fathers intended rather then our country become an authoritarian system like in Russia, will all go out and thru the power of their votes make sure that these people are either removed from office of never make it in to office in the first place.

I'm not really sure my guess would be Republican's that have now been labelled as RINO's because their views aren't really matching up with her MAGA views. The story didn't really cover who she thought commited the fraud but since it was for the Chair of the Republican party in Michigan I would imagine everyone who did vote are registered as Republicans. What the story talked more about was the reason she was voted out which was mismanagement of of the Republican party's accounts in Michigan, I'm not sure if that's something she is in fact guilty of but she's being accussed of it essentially because the party is on the verge of bankruptcy, and just as it is in national politics the blame falls on whoever is in charge when it gets noticed. My guess is it's a problem that has been building for some time. I would imagine also that since the Republican part on the national level has been covering most of Trump's legal expense, Trump is likely somehow indirectly to blame.
