  • States hold elections. Sure he can try to send the military, but this is nationwide Bloody Kansas going into US Civil War 2.0. Expect the democrats who live in DC to just storm the white house if they start cancelling elections.

    More likely they’d to the Turkey route, and eventually the Russia method. Sham elections are better than cancelling elections (for those in power).


  • The DNC is considering not giving him the nomination regardless of his win of the primary.

    The Democratic National Committee does not decide State and Local nominations.

    They can’t even “refuse to nominate” for congression races. The only power they have is dictating the rules for the US Presidential Nomination.

    Other than the Presidency whoever wins the primary is the nominee under state laws. Otherwise they could’ve just “refuse to nominate” AOC (which they had no legal power to do btw).

    Their main power is mostly just money to buy propaganda. If people can just be smarter and ignore the propaganda, they could take over easily. The only reason the establishment maintain their power is because the people allows them to keep their power.

    “33 Senate Seats are on the ballot”

    LMFAO.

    Let me introduce you to Staggered Elections

    Only Maine’s seat is even winnable, the other ones up for relection in 2026 are all safe Blue or Safe Red states

    Currently its 53-47. Highly doubt that Dems can win 3 in Red States. (Unless we get a White Boi Hillbilly Revolution?)

    The House cannot block juidicial nominations.

    Judicial nominations are not subject to Filibuster.

    So…

    Not to be a pessimist, but…

    Looks like an uphill battle…

    😕

    Edit:

    Ask yourselves: Which of the red seats can Dems flip in 2026? (Grey ones are not up for election, only one seat is up for election per state due to staggered elections)

    Despite this, you should still go vote! But don’t get too excited. Its not safe until fascists are out of executive power.
