Nothing Trump revealed in his speech comes anywhere close to his own treasonous attempts to thwart our elections

7. so true, Kentuck

...the most prevalent and pernicious threat America has faced since the Cold War, but we had the country and our government mobilizing against that threat in the past.

We're all dissident now, subject to the attempted overthrow of democracy and our system of government by one president and his acquiescing party in functional control of all branches of government with the Supreme Court's maga majority determined to legislate every Democratic-derived law or initiative from the bench in favor of their republican benefactors.

Courts without any actual enforcement mechanism, and states being actively intimidated out of their own sovereignty and right to hold elections on their own volition according to their constitutional primacy in those elections, and any power the federal government having over those being delegated by Congress and not inherent in the Executive's authority to control.

The real outrage is that this president is feigning diligence to the law while working to control and engineer a partisan election outcome favorable to him and his political party - right out in the open, assuming we're virtually powerless to stop him.

I think there are a lot of questions about just how WE stop a president and party in the majority determined to subjugate the minority to their corrupt hold on power. Most of depends on the integrity of members of a party who haven't yet demonstrated any.

I get that the courts will say no to something like a declaration of a national emergency that intends to seize ballots or voting machine. But, I'm not sure what will happen next if the president decides to ignore them.
