Senator J.D. Vance is openly embracing the idea of a coup in a pathetic bid to become Donald Trump’s vice president.

    80’s Republicans were already evil and stupid, but at least they would absolutely lynch 20’s Republicans for treason

    I would do the same, and the first thing I would do is declare the GOP a terrorist organization and start mowing down their leaders and media figures.

    So fuck off, Senator.

      Whatever that means

      It means forget the votes, and forget democracy. In other words, do a coup. The thing you are adamantly arguing against.

      I hope someone’s paying you to spread disinformation, and you’re not simply a blithering imbecile.

          A coup doesn’t have to be violent. It can utilize existing rules if it breaks their spirit or the ability to change them.

          A coup is a forceful seizure of governmental power that subverts the existing system of power. That includes shit like this.

          A coup can be military but also from other bodies.

          In this case it would be a self-coup since a lawfully elected power would be attempting to maintain power by illegal means.

              Eh, doing a bit of googling there doesn’t seem to be a direct line to homophobia and indeed lots of things point to spanking being the origin.

              Regardless I will stop using it if some think it means that, since that is what language is.

              I am fine not castigating OP as a homophobe without more evidence

      He said IF he was Vice President in 2020 he would have told contested states to do slates of electors.

      how do you not realize this is a coup? dear god man, how does discarding voted electors for a new slate based on party lines not equal a coup?
