Idaho Republicans poised to reject 2020 election results and declare Trump the winner

The Idaho Republican Party will consider 31 resolutions at its three-day convention starting Thursday, including one already adopted by Texas Republicans that President Joe Biden isn’t the legitimate leader of the country.

The Idaho resolution in the deeply conservative state that Donald Trump won with 64% of the vote in 2020 is nearly identical to the Texas resolution that was passed last month, stating: “We reject the certified results of the 2020 presidential election; and we hold that acting president Joseph Robinette Biden was not legitimately elected by the people of the United States.”...

The 22nd Amendment says "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice." Figure that one out, Idaho GOPers.

in important battleground states in 2024. The state races will be the trenches where the fight against an authoritarian government will be won or lost.
