Trump's Policies XI


Q: What did you mean when you said you should 'nationalize elections' & which 15 states are you talking about?

TRUMP: I want to see elections be honest, & if a state can't run an election, I think the people behind me should do something about it. If you think about it, the state is an agent for the federal govt on elections. Look at Detroit, Pennsylvania, Atlanta -- horrible corruption on elections





This man hates the US Constitution. It's all about his power and ego.

How about this one, @selmaborntidefan?

When will the political parties learn that pulling the gun out in the argument will get YOU shot?

Now granted, this is one of the few issues on which TRUMP has been more consistent than the Democrats have. Hell, if I was Thune and I had the votes in my back pocket, I'd put this up for a vote and literally dare every Democrat who voted for abolishing it get on the record with their hypocrisy. Of course, my party leadership would unfortunately be subject to the PMS of Donald Trump so it wouldn't work.


But this is the Enola Gay, folks. The whole point of a filibuster in the first place is to prevent 51% from smashing through everything they want on the 49%. If this happened, every trifecta in DC would (likely) turn us into a country no better than third world dictatorships, where every time a government fell and was replaced by a new one, their agenda would be force fed onto the "just less than a majority" that opposed it.

Trump wants it to seal his dictatorship.

And I know Harry Reid used the hackneyed justification that "I have to do this because the Republicans are going to do it anyway," but all he really did was make it easy for McConnell - who I'll remind everyone WARNED HIM what was going to happen - to say, "Look, I'm just taking what he did one more step. He started it." And he did.

If you're not FOR abolishing the filibuster NOW, you have no business being for it simply because it helps "your side." And that's for everybody. But the results would be a monumental disaster.

If the GOP is this dumb just wait until they abolish all the stuff they claim to hate and suddenly face a 60-seat blue Senate.

I just hate the current form of the filibuster where essentially raising your hand grounds everything to a halt indefinitely. They can even leave the chambers and the building under current rules. It's a virtual filibuster.

I want the old school, traditional talking filibuster brought back. No bathroom breaks, not sitting, just talking. Make it an endurance test again.

last spring, senator booker held the floor for over 25 hours
 
Yes and when that winner is determined to be Biden, we will be told that they had five years to destroy all the evidence and create fake ballots.
Absolutely! And does anyone think that the shouts of fraud would stop if the SAVE Act was passed and Republicans still lost? They won't be satisfied until their power is absolute, no matter the cost to our democracy. It's never been about election security.
