It’s another example of how Trump and MAGA are attempting to undermine faith in the coming election. Trump lost the popular vote in both 2016 and 2020, so he might be making a preemptive strike at the legitimacy of the results should he lose the popular vote a third time. Still, it’s not clear why he’s telling his supporters not to vote at all. Perhaps it’s another example of the former president and convicted felon’s cognitive decline.
This man is genuinely retarded. If I didn’t think his ego was as huge as it is, I’d think this is a tactic to save face when he gets crushed in November.
I mean, he’s incredibly unsubtle. Maybe he knows deep down that in a straight vote he’s going to lose, so people voting isn’t going to matter vs the amount of crime that’s going to be committed in early November?
We call it developmentally disabled these days, bud.
When we’re talking about Trump it still seems appropriate somehow.
As do other words, even if we make them up.

They’re struggling to come up with a plan… is he going to quit?
I highly doubt it. One of the main reasons he wants the presidency is to pardon himself for everything and anything. And to be king.
Can’t do either of those things if he quits completely.
Perhaps he and his brain trust are somehow thinking they should abandon democratic process and peaceful transition of power altogether and actually try to stage a literal coup. Watch what the legislative leadership does. Johnson in particular. He’ll probably try some sketchy bullshit on January 6, 2025.
I swear I read that certain states have put in laws where they can ultimately refuse the outcomes of elections if they so choose, and the SCOTUS is already primed to be the deciding factor. I don’t recall if that was pure doom 'n gloom from his 2020 tantrums though
Yeah, but the thing is, I really don’t think either Biden or Harris will take it lying down if the SC tries to straight up enable a coup. It would be categorically indefensible, even to Biden, who’s been frustratingly milquetoast in pushing back against their very obviously biased decisions of recent years.
