If the democrats executed the same fake electors scheme trump tried to execute, wouldn't Republican opposition be admission of trumps guilt?
It's the party that lies through their teeth. Why on earth would you think they would admit anything?
Well it's a juxtaposition isn't it? On one hand you have the dems delaying the confirmation using the same tactics trump did. On the other you have him coming into power and having the justice department drop the charges.
And it's the same Republicans who said Supreme Court nominations shouldn't happen right before an election and also voted in nominations right before an election. They don't give us shit about anything. Why would we go through a stunt when they wouldn't think twice about how they are hypocritics. they know then are, they just don't care.
It doesn't matter because they will just spin it, ignore any relevance to their own actions, and repeat it enough that it becomes the narrative. This is the standard M.O.
Doesn't matter.
Democrats will always be held to an unattainably high standard while Republicans are held to literally none.
Trump supporters unironically walked around wearing "I'm voting for the felon" merchandise. They support criminals because they admire criminals, as long as the criminals are on their team.
Their hypocrisy knows no bounds, so they will look you straight in the eye and say a democrat is the anti-christ for attempting a fake electors scheme, despite their guy having done so himself.
None of this matters. Because Americans don't care. Because Americans aren't responsible democratic citizens. Which is why we're experiencing a decline we won't be crawling out of anytime soon.
He can be lawless, she must be flawless.
If ir doesn't matter, do it for the lawls then.
Maybe we should have a peaceful takeover of the Capital on Jan 6, it's very cool and very legal after all
It would be a way to show that the DNC actually cares.
They wouldn't care about the hypocrisy. The Republican party generally isn't intellectually honest, and their supporters don't pressure them to be.
At this point we're waiting to see if they are bigoted enough to actually take up arms and support the fascist state, if so they're going to find out quickly how many libz also own guns.
The thing is, dems can do whatever they want. We elevated them and they are still weak in face of fascism. It's easy for them, too. They take their time and plan their little scuttle butt knowing there will be no consequence for them. No matter what little scuffle they get into they will go home to their bags of money and high level connections. What would have happened if the democrats put in a pitbull for an AG? The Republicans get upset? They curse their names and say, "you'll rue the day." They already do it. They do it when the dems accidently step on a toe. They do it pretending the dems actually did something or stood for anything. The democrats just cower away, afraid to upset the money train and lose their station. It's a joke. There's nothing to gain here. They lost, you don't understand. This was the off ramp. This was the resistance. It's a sunk cost. You will waste resources going back to this empty well.
Is anybody denying Trump's guilt?
They will drop all changes when trump takes power. So yes.
They'd wear "hypocrite" tshirts while sentencing the fake electors.
It would be evidence of hypocrisy and selective enforcement, not admission of Trumps guilt.
I don't think the democrats are delaying confirmation, Trump is delaying signing conflict of interest documents, financial disclosure and medical records.
You're assuming that Republicans are consistent with their BS. They are not.
Many, if not most, MAGA voters suffer from extreme cognitive dissonance and they're trained to not think about it.
I don't really worry about what Republicans think. What are they going to do, vote more? They already think dems are communist blah blah blah, I don't think anything dems do is suddenly going to activate an even more outraged GOP base. Everyone else though, they will see the hypocrisy for what it is and you might even get some people's attention that you didn't have before.
Bold of you to assume Democrats care about anything other than the good boy points they think they get by sticking to a rulebook that fewer and fewer are abiding by
Sure, and?
Remember when they had a hissy fit about a Supreme Court nomination too close to an election, refused to fill and then decided the opposite was true if trump was in charge?
I think overall there is no pathway to seating kamala and it would just be a waste of time. At the same time, though, what a way to send a message. I think if the democrats understood how deep under water they were it would be the most beautiful death throw.
Ehhh, I think it sends a message to any Independent or wavering trump voter that "hey, 'member all the threat to democracy stuff we talked about? Yeah, just kidding!"
Sucks to be the adult party but such is life.
