    You’re overthinking it

    Pass a law in a few places that the state legislature can overrule the state results for president

    Those states are enough to pick the president we want

    President then fires all federal law enforcement or administrative official who’s not loyal to him, replaces them from the Project 2025 binders, and just announces deployment of the military in the US and that anyone who’s against him is illegal and goes to prison or shot

    Bingo bango. More direct, less complicated, more permanent, nationwide results. Your thinking was along the right lines but too rules-based. Takes too long. Not enough innovative enough within the current system.

      The fact that people still fail to understand this when the playbook is very literally available online in full form baffles and infuriates me. Like, there are Republicans who are doing things now that are in - or will very obviously enable specific goals listed in - that plan. They’re not even trying to hide it anymore.

        Yeah. This year is go time. It’s like the Fifth Element; it’ll either take over, or else get sent away until the next thousand years, when it returns.

          I love science fiction, but it is disturbingly prescient sometimes. Which is, I suppose, one of the reasons I find the genre so fascinating.
