Trump sees how weak he is. The GOP will lose their majority in the midterms.

He doesn’t have the authority.
Edit: I understand he dgaf about what he can & can’t do. My hope on this one tho, is that federal elections are handled @ the state level. The elections will happen, IMO. Will he recognize the results? Probably not. We are full scale boned right here

He is afraid they will lose if he doesn’t.

Blue states should start withholding federal tax revenue until we know the federal government isn’t compromised. We contribute drastically more revenue than we consume and it would tank the entire Administration’s agenda . If we can’t have elections it’s tea in the harbor time. No taxation without representation! Let those welfare queen red states see what they are actually worth

The frothing, rapid transition into openly screaming “might makes right” is the GOP telling us the only way they see giving up power…

If a democrat president said that, what would happen? Let that sink in…

Every single time.
Say a terrible thing, then walk it back.
Wait a while, then say it again, but worse, and walk it back only part way.
Wait a little longer, then say it a third time, but *so much worse*, then walk it back only to the original terrible thing, which no longer seems anything like as bad, by comparison.
Then do that thing.

An alternative way to minimize the chances of being impeached is to, say, stop doing patently illegal, unconstitutional, and evil things. Or sure, you can go ahead and commit another impeachable and seditious offense by trying to rig yet another election.

Trump knows he’s a loser and has torpedoed his own party. If he had any brains he would want Democrats controlling the House, and then go golfing the other half of the week he doesn’t already golf.

Did you want riots?
Because that’s how you get riots.

Expected him to start saying this. Didn’t think we’d have to start hearing it before we’re even a week into 2026 though. Ugh
Low_Celebration_9957 on
The very fact he spoke this aloud should result in his removal, yet here we are with a feckless and complicit congress. The only people that can save us is ourselves through revolution.

Him talking about means the ghouls behind him are planning it. Can we hold the media complicit yet?

If the midterms are canceled the blue states should secede. If there are no elections there is no union.

If you don’t stand for something then you will fall for anything.
I believe it’s high time that America citizens stop feeding into the current regime that’s destroying the world.
Stop being complicit and complacent.
There is a dictator in D.C. that is trying to rule with an iron fist.
We need to be more mobile and occupy places that will have an impact on what the current fascist government is trying to achieve.
They don’t care about who will suffer.
They only care about lining their pockets and grifting those who cannot or will not stand up.
No more letters or phone calls that land on deaf ears.
The politicians of our country won’t do the exact thing that, we the citizens of the United States, are asking them to do.
Other countries will only defend themselves because our government has shown that the rule of law does not matter.
WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING

If this happens I’ll be hitting the street to my nearest capital to possibly do what I can’t say on Reddit. This will be the straw that broke for me.

He keeps talking about cancelling elections, every single person here needs to be asking themselves the following questions.
1. Do you trust the federal government to protect you?
2. Do you believe that this administration is specifically targeting groups of people?
3. Do you trust in the courts ability to protect you with the established laws of the country?
4. Do you believe that federal law enforcement is currently respecting our rights as guaranteed to us by The Constitution?
5. If a federal officer was targeting you and breaking the law, do you think that local or state law enforcement would stop them to protect you?
6. Do you trust the elected representatives of your party to defend you?
7. Do you think anyone else will come to your rescue?
8. Do you believe in equal rights for all people’s and would you fight to defend those rights from an unjust force?
9. Are you in a position to defend yourself if others won’t fight for you?
10. Who benefits more from you being unarmed during these times?

Maybe then people will realize we have to do more than sign waving in designated protest locations.

Fucking traitor. He knows how weak he is. The majority of the country hates him and his policies. If he goes through with stopping the midterms, it is time for mass protests.

Just a reminder to my fellow Americans: in both world wars and civil war we never canceled elections.

Elections have never been canceled not even during ww2. This is the most unconstitutional thing you could do.

So Democrats were “overreacting” and “delusional” when we called it on day one after he slimed into office? Where’s all those hyped-up testosterone MAGA junkies saying us “lefties” were lying and anti-American for suggesting Trump wanted to just not have elections anymore. Crickets. What will it take, people??? Trump coming for your guns?

This is not something a confident or competent leader would even think to suggest.

Trump can see how disastrous the midterms are going to be for the GOP and him. That is why he panic-talks like that.
He can’t stop the mid-term elections, and the disaster for him and the GOP will happen.
Mastermiine on
He always does this. He “floats the idea” to gage reactions to see how he can get away with it. Then his supporters say “He was joking” “He did not mean it” and he gets the idea in people’s head. If you are a Trump supporter you should not be chearing for this.
If this was a democrat saying this there would be so much outrage.

Imagine if any other former president said this… ffs. I hate it here.

Wow the thing we democrats said he’d do from the fucking start, the same thing Republicans parroted would “never happen”, who could have forseen this?

Whenever he jokes about something it means they’re already planning for it because the Cheeto can’t keep his mouth shut.

What’s so stupid about this moment in American history is that people act like the Nazis didn’t happen just 90 years ago.
None of this shit is new. Aand yet we act like we have no idea where this is all headed.
TBQH, there’s a good argument to be made that modern-day Americans are more culpable than the early-20th century Germans because the original Nazis didn’t grow up learning about Nazis as a cautionary tale.
