We’re Headed for Permanent One Party Rule [I Hate the Republican Party]

All Republicans have to do is win back the House next year, and they’ll be able to do that just by gerrymandering. Then in 2024 if they don’t win the presidential election fairly, which they probably won’t but might, then they’ll steal it. The Republican majority in the House will refuse to certify results in any states where it’s reasonably close due to “allegations of voter fraud”, so Biden or Harris or whoever else the Democrats might nominate would have to win [i]decisively[/i] in enough states to get to 270, highly unlikely to happen, and you can’t count on Arizona or Georgia this time because both those states passed laws that allow their Republican-led legislatures to overturn the will of the people. If no candidate reaches a majority of electoral votes (at least 270) then the House gets to elect the president, voting by state delegation, so Wyoming will get one vote same as California, and they’ll elect the Republican candidate no matter how badly he may have lost the popular vote. It will probably be Trump again, but if for some reason he decides not to run it will be someone in Trump’s mold with his blessing because elections since 2016 have overwhelmingly shown that Republicans who distance themselves from Trump lose and Republicans who embrace him win. From there they’ll just pass a bunch of voter suppression laws that make it ridiculously difficult to vote in urban areas, and soon the Democratic Party will have essentially no say in the government because Republicans will always have large enough majorities that they won’t need Democratic votes to pass anything.

I am writing only because someone has to say that this is sheer, unadulterated nonsense.

@LamontCranston Why? It sounds reasonable enough to me.

@LamontCranston Thank you for adding nothing substantial to the conversation.
