  • No, they have many other plans, mostly to try to create legal arguments at the last minute for why the election should happen but was illegitimate.

    Basically 2020 on steroids because they have the money for lawyers already.

    But also, there’s hope this is trumps last hurrah, and after this the party will magically go back to only caring about tax cuts and gun rights, like this was all a bad dream.

    I think you massively underestimate how hard paleoconservatives are trying to delusionally rationalize their way out of this so they can both get the votes of the racist, violent dixiecrats, while always pretending they aren’t actually a part of the party.

    They just want to get back to that again.








  • that can’t be employed at scale as readily

    Well there’s your problem right there:

    You’re concerned we can’t scale up arbitrary killings? Would you prefer something on a larger, more industrial scale, perhaps with large, gas-fueled ovens?

    Killing should be hard, and it should be personal, not vaguely waving a hand in a general direction. You should know their name and hopefully have filled out a few forms beforehand.

    If you want to kill somebody, when you aren’t at war with their entire country, then BE SPECIFIC.
