Whether we use touch screens or guillotines to cast our ballots is an unanswered question.

But what do you do when Trump gets 90% of the vote like Putin does? There are elections and then there are "elections". permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) Start putting up billboards reminding the Secret Service how many terms a president is allowed to serve. Billboards reminding JD Vance that he can finish out up to two years of Trump's term and remain eligible for two terms of his own. "Remind" Trump that everyone around him is plotting against him. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago (1 child) Russia had term limits... until Putin just changed the constitution to remove them. But why would you assume having some other fascist in charge will fix the problem? Trump is old and unhealthy, so there's a good chance he'll before the end of his term from natural causes. Sure JD Vance isn't nearly as popular as Trump, but if elections are rigged and the media is under the control of the President (as things are in Russia), that won't matter much. Trump is the symptom, American proclivity towards fascism is the real problem. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 1 point 1 year ago MAGA is a personality cult. It will rip itself apart as soon as Trump is gone. If Trump ever thought that Vance was a threat, he'd try to have him executed, just like he did with Pence. Convince Trump that he's surrounded by traitors, and he'll bring down the whole apparatus himself. permalink fedilink source parent
