Remember when Democratic Presidents Obama and Biden told Rachel Maddow on her cable show that the Democrats need to take over the voting process?
No. Of course not. Because if either of them had ever uttered such insane rubbish, the Republicans in Congress and around the country would have swallowed their tongues in paroxysms of hot red rage.
But Trump just recently suggested that very thing.
That insane thought sprang from his fatuous, witless brain and then his vocal cords, by vibrating air from his lungs, produced a buzzing tone -- sound waves that were then shaped into words by his throat, mouth, tongue, and lips, which acted as resonators and articulators to produce the words that this senescent fool expelled on the Dan Bongino Show:
Trump calls in to the Dan Bongino Show:
"The Republicans should say, 'We want to take over. We should take over the voting.'"
Trump called for Republicans at the federal level to seize control of elections from states during an appearance on the podcast of Dan Bongino, who returned to his show on Feb. 2 after resigning in January as FBI deputy director in the Trump administration.

Trump, obviously, has never read the Constitution. He's a dull-witted and lazy man who cares nothing for the rule of law; and, apparently, he believes anything that his putrescent mind imagines will be implemented and carried out just because he says so.

When asked about past conflicts of his statements and, you know, thuth, on the Sean Hannity Show, Bongino had this to say...
"You know, listen, I was paid in the past [on my podcast], Sean [Hannity], for my opinions. [Now] I'm paid to be your deputy director [of the FBI], and we base investigations on facts".
A tacit admission from Bongino that statements he made on his show were not true, or not factual. How do know this? Because hannity asked him about the contradictions between his podcast statements and statements he was then making as the Deputy Director of the FBI.
This is where a US President went to call for the federalization of the US elections, in violation of the US Constitution he swore uphold and defend.
To a show hosted by an admitted liar, to lie himself.
On the interwebz the question on everyone's mind is this: if the Trumpstein files had dropped with any other president that would be it. All congressional business would screech to a stop and the hearings would begin. Millions of pages of documents and yet still there are GOP lackeys telling the talking heads that if there were any evidence... What do they think witness statements, call logs, and flight logs are? They have the evidence, they just don't want to go after anyone powerful and apparently the names included in the files are the very elite of the elite.
And now this - the president of the USA trashes State's Rights and the Constitution and just casually announces that he wants to take over the election.
I've been advising using the law and courts to do our fighting but... wow. Haven't heard any strategies from my usual voices. Perhaps they are conferring with all the Constitutional lawyers they know. And perhaps they are thinking about how to enforce a judgement against the president and his cabinet when they've ignored the 90+ previous judgements which ruled against them.
Violence is so close and I'm doing everything I can to deluge the ether with for the good of all and may it harm none. Bullets = harm so no to bullets, yes to citizens finding their courage to do the correct thing because it's the correct thing to do.
Off to meditate. Stay frosty my friends. MAGA is popping like kernels of corn because they are waking up to find it was never the Drag Queens.
It seems the demented one believes that Dem votes are cheating. As for Hannity, the college drop out is paid $36 million a year by faux noooze.
Really hard to believe, the whole chaotic gang would be jailed in a functioning democracy.
Be prepared. For either marshal law or nationalization of elections. The rethuglican fascist party will do everything its Fuhrer Trump demands. And the corrupted scotus will bless it for their Fuhrer Trump.
Actually Grey, the question on everyone's mind is who is going to return their land back to the people they stole it from. Boston, Philadelphia, NYC all should surrender their houses back to the people they stole it from.
That is what Billie Eilish is going to do and the left wing community needs to follow her lead.
As to nationalizing the elections, won't happen but good fodder for the left.
Yup, like J6 2021 was a tourist tour, not an insurrectionist attempt. Like Trump was going to announce his better Healthcare plan which never hapened. Like ICE murdering innocent people on their streets isn't true. Like the thugs Fuhrer's corrupt scotus would never overturn Roe-v-Wade. Like he ended 8 wars.
Your nuts skud and you, in your daze of illusions, continue supporting your Fuhrer and his fascist party. We know you're damn proud of supporting chaos, division, hate, and the unconstitutionalliy of your Fuhrer's continuous attempts to overturn our democratic republic.
You're part of the problem skud and it's obvious your damn proud of it.
Les, You are well aware I am not a fan of trump's but I am a fiscal conservative and support neither party because both of them have no plan of fiscal conservation.
I will admit I detest hypocrites from both parties but the democrats seem to exude this trait the most. With their tax the rich and support the illegals until it comes to really supporting them. They were in support of biden until they weren't and when it was reported by the liberal press that biden was cognitively impaired they kicked him to the curb. They want to house illegals and homeless as long as it is in another neighborhood. Have you opened your house to an illegal family or street resident. Have you pledged 20% of your wealth to a charity. Didnt' think so even though a vow of poverty is part of the Buddhist belief. I may be nuts but at least I am not a hypocrite.
Not that I disagree with Billie Eilish but when was she elected queen of the left?
Your final comment to Les - LOL you aren't a hypocrite skud? ROLF ROLF LOLOLOLOL skud, your picture is literally the illustration of the word hypocrite.
Also please explain to me how a person at their immigration hearing at the Immigration office is an "illegal"? I ask because of the footage shown of ICE arresting folks at their freaking immigration hearing that they'd been appearing at for years. Seems like they were doing things the "right" way and yet were deported because their skin tone wasn't the hue our current admin values.
Your talking points are failing you. We see exactly who you are skud. Your lies will not protect you this time. We said what is happening in Minneapolis was going to happen and you called me (and others) hysterical and deranged yet here we are.
Trump said on air that he wants to nationalize elections, you say never going to happen, that it's just "fodder" for the left. Yeah, sure skud.
I'm will never not you on anything skud because your track record is crap. You probably remember our conversations differently. Yeah, that's a mental illness where you are always the victim/hero and never the bad guy. It's a handy coping mechanism to prevents you from having to look closely at what you say or do because your memories are covered by the patina of the cult.
And skud, for the record, both parties aren't killing citizens in the streets. Both parties aren't violating peoples rights to due process. Both parties are not the same and that the fact you keep saying they are is can be attributed entirely to your indoctrination into the MAGA cult.
Skud... to answer your question... yes, I've had people staying at my house who have been here illegally. I've housed them and hired them. We give over 20% of our income to churches and organizations that serve homeless people and people in their own country, so they can have a better life and support their families where they'd prefer to live.
Does that allow me to say your your views are a bunch of BS?
You've never once offered a solution to anything anyone here has criticized about the Trump Admin, the MAGA crowd or your group, feckless conservatives. But you'll slam "sleepy joe" or the "swell guy" in a minute.
How about you deal with post?
President Trump said the federal government should takeover and run elections in our country. He said it. His press secretary tried to say he was talking about Voter ID, but then he doubled down in the Oval Office after that.
A US President is openly talking about ignoring the US Constitution.
And his supporters in Congress, Speaker Mike Johnson among them, defend saying "he believes" as you do, "the 2020 election" was rigged and stolen from him.
Newsflash... there's no proof, no evidence, no grassy knoll, no second gunman, nothing.
This is why Dub keeps asking you to clarify your point on the 2020 election. because you're a troll, unable to concede.
You amigo, and all your Trump, current GOP supporting MAGA trolls are killing our country, one lie after another.
Here's the question Skud... maybe you'll reply.
Do you believe Joe Biden was legitimately elected president in 2020?
One word... Yes... or No.
Can you do it?
Dave, The actions of ICE is not appropriate and is out of control. The issue that is not addressed is why this is happening. Had the former president not opened the border and invited millions of illegals to cross the border maybe we wouldn't have this issue now. I know you won't place any blame on beach chair but that was the start.
You want me to answer you question about the 2020 election. I would rather live in the present than the past and that election is past.
But, Skud, you just brought up the past when you blamed former President Biden for the border problem. I guess you’d rather live in the present when government goons are brutalizing, shooting, and killing Americans in the streets of Minnesota. Or is that too far in the past for you to care about?
A confirmation of allegiance to authoritarianism and chaos by again not answering directly.
LMAO!
Ms. Shaw, The past is directly related to the present. Had we not allowed millions to enter we would not have to make millions leave. I don't think the method being used is correct but I also think attacking LEO's is not correct either.
What I question is why conservatives don't rally in mass to protest against abuse of police and why the left doesn't protest the against child abuse. Guess neither cares because the media will not attend a peaceful event.
The past is directly related to the present you said while also saying "I would rather live in the present than the past and that election is past."
Guess I am wrong. skud doesn't have just a reading for comprehension issue, they have a reading AND writing for comprehension issue.
You think the left isn't protesting against SA against children? Wow. Just... wow. You do remember the GOP has used the SA of children against the LGBTQIA+ community for more than a minute?
Have you viewed any of the signs carried by protestors not already sanitized for your viewing pleasure by your voices of authority? I'm thinking not as your comments would be different if you had.
Anyone else notice that skud is painting themselves into a corner?
Nowhere to run now except your own thoughts skud. Good luck, you are going to need it.
Skud... first, there has been no mass violence directly against any police in the ICE raids. There has also not been any mass violence directed at ICE, who are not police and do not receive the training in deescalation, crowd control, and apprehension or gun safety as police do.
The left for the most part, has always supported fair, just and effective policing. Sure, there have been some who cried "Defund the Police" [DTP] and meant every letter of it, but not a single national leader on the left is in the crowd. Even Rev Al, a notorious lefty for some, has said DTP is a bunch of bunk. He's on record saying the black community believes in police but wants better police.
Here's reality Skud... because, as you said "The past is directly related to the present." On Jan 6, hundreds of US Capitol Police were assaulted in a riot/insurrection/tourist visit in Washington DC.
Perpetrators were hunted down, captured, jailed, tried and in almost every case, found guilty or pled guilty.
Then people like you excused that violence. People like you voted for a president who does not believe those men and women who beat US Police Officers, did anything wrong. People like you voted for Senators and US Congressmen all across the US who supported Trump even after he said he would pardon all of those criminals. Many of whom have now reoffended.
Then when Trump did pardon all those criminals, the people you voted for could not bring themselves to say those pardons were wrong.
Yes, the past is connected to the present.
And like the people you have supported, you're willfully clueless, like Speaker Johnson when he says "I haven't read about that."
This post is about Trump's calls to "nationalize elections" or at least do so in some specific states, blue states. Should we believe him? Is he really thinking about doing this? Would he really defy the Constitution and carry out the fevered dreams of his and his supporters like you?
Based on what we've seen in the past, I think we're in the early stages of a five alarm fire.
BTW Skud... typical that you take the weasel approach, just like the people for whom you voted as it relates to the 2020 elections. But that's okay, your non answer speaks volumes about you, your character and your views.
Never once have I evaded your BS questions directed personally to me. Yet you cannot, or will not afford me the same respect.
Why?
Dave, The states have control over elections and unless congress passes an
amendment which I can't see happening it will remain with the states.
I'm trying to make sense of your post but it goes in so many directions that it appears frustration has taken over. Your leader, chuckie, said making people produce ID to vote is jim crowe 2.0. A couple of things that need to be pointed out regarding your leader, 83% of Americans favor voter ID, 76% of Blacks support it and 82% of Latino's. Jim Crowe was formed by democrats so if it is 2.0 it has to be a democrat 2.0.
Here's reality Dave, it is the democrats who pushed for defunding police not conservatives. It is the leader in the democrat party who doesn't want voter ID and it was the leader of the democrat party who opened the door for millions to cross the border and now are being asked to leave.
Nice try Dave to attempt to humiliate me but it is a no go but you can keep trying.
Well Skud, let's look at your defunding charge. You cannot name one Democrat in leadership in Congress, or the Senate, who argued for defunding the police.
At the time of the movement, President Biden, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Minority Leader Schumer and House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn all stated that "defunding the police" is not the party's official position.
That's what leadership does. When a few members of the AOC crew called for changing how police money is spent, in the wake of the DTP movement, leadership of the party was resolute in stating we are not defunding the police.
I know this is hard for you to grasp, but unlike the GOP, the Dems still have some disagreements within the party.
As for Voter ID, I'm all for it. Just make it a single Federal ID, of the kind used in other countries, that is valid where ever the person goes. That way if little Johnny goes off to school, he can vote from there.
Maybe you are not aware that there has been a systematic push in college towns across conservative America to not accept out of state ID from students who live in those states, to register to vote.
So that's my only prerequisite. A single, free, federal ID, accepted in all 50 states, 51 if we're taking Greenland, 52 if we're taking Alberta, CA.
And Skud... I have to try and humiliate you, and I wasn't. You do that yourself when you post your uninformed thoughts without any factual basis, evidence and links.
Which is why you can't answer a simple question.
Because without evidence, you do believe the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump.
So your view is because a bunch of fossils in the democrat party didn't back defunding the police then it was not democrats who were championing it. Flash, it is the younger democrats who are the influential side of the democrat party. pelosi, schumer, clyburn have little control of the democrats they have been replaced by AOC, crockett and the radical side of the dems called progressives.
Single ID is a good idea so why is leader schumer saying ID requirements are jim crowe 2.0.
Nice try Dave but the dems can't run from themselves.
Simple question Skud... did the leadership of the Democrats, regardless of age, back "DTP"? Of course the answer in no. But I'm willing to be persuaded if you can bring some evidence and links showing otherwise.
The Dems would support a federally provided single ID for voting in a minute. The GOP will not as it will stifle their work to exclude the votes of young people who tend to move more often.
But... and this is the real problem. The GOP and folks like you who are calling for Voter ID are trying to solve a problem that does not exist.
Once again, I am willing to be persuaded if you can bring some evidence and links showing this is a real problem.
But we all know you will bring nothing, because it does not exist. You believe in your soul it does, but that feeling in your soul is not evidence.
