have their own election in December.

Screwing with both of those sounds like a good movie, but makes no sense back here on Earth.

Not hold an election and appoint their slate of electors. It is fully constitutional yet extremely undemocratic.

If they do, it will rip this country apart immediately.

Right now Republicans are the more obvious and Democrats have gotten religion about it, but fraud has always been rampant in American politics. It's gotten a lot better, but can always go back if stop watching.

The point is to reduce it, not just point fingers.

When he says something I actually believe him."

The guy who said Trump was an "evil genius" and in 2018: "I've come to the conclusion that the old guard of the Democratic Party is a greater roadblock to social progress than Trump."

At this point, he is dangerously close to being in Susan Collins territory.

Lock him up.

... I am more afraid his puppet master will do something on Halloween? to try to help him.

That "something" could be like launching a "fake" ICBM (or many?) without real warheads, then NORAD seeing it (or them?) on their screen, then alerting the Pentagon in a minute, then calling the malignant maggot for him to order a destruction of it (them?) in space. Then claiming he saved millions of lives.

I don't trust any of these two mobsters.
