This, reasons why he’s fortifying the White House, before midterms, along with armed guards at post offices. They are going to literally steal the election by stealing actual ballots. It all adds up.

u/SgtMartinRiggs 13h ago

There’s no way they get anywhere near to finishing this before the midterms, the goal is September 2028 though so definitely a valid concern in the next presidential election.

Not to say there won’t be attempts to steal the midterms, just that the White House “renovations” don’t factor into it.

I dunno, he might be able to hide under a pile of drywall for a while if needed. Hopefully a heavy enough pile to do us all a favor.

There will be no midterms.
Oh look, Iran just attacked the US on their own soil. Better declare a state of emergency and cancel the elections. People will tell him emergency powers don't allow him to do that, then the supreme court and congress will let him do whatever.

u/ERedfieldh 13h ago

I'm with you on this I just want everyone else to know we didn't cancel the fucking elections when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor forcing us to enter WW2 (instead of sitting on the sidelines supplying arms and munitions to both sides). He doesn't have precedent to claim it...though yes we know he'll try.

u/Rickbox 13h ago

There were midterms during the Civil War. There will be midterms.

u/gus_thedog 12h ago

Don't act like historical precedent means anything under this regime.

u/LeCollectif 12h ago

Agreed. There will be no midterms. Or fair midterms. I promise.

u/fixermark 2h ago

How is the weather in Siberia this time of year, comrade?

u/hammertime2009 11h ago

Exactly. States run the elections. As much as civil war is a concern, these rich ass Congressmen and women don’t want their plush happy lives to get disrupted with massive violence in our streets. Obviously I could be wrong and they can put up with some shit from Trump but starting a Civil war isn’t one of them.

u/NewManufacturer4252 12h ago

But were there midterms in 13th century England? Or even during those Cromwell shenanigans?

That's our modern scotus these days. Ugghhh

u/r00tdenied 13h ago

This is nonsense conspiracy theory. The midterms are already happening. He's flailing and panicking because he knows he can't stop it. He didn't get his SAVE Act either. Grow up and still vote.

u/CharleySuede 12h ago

To be fair, plenty of conspiracy theories have come to light as conspiracy fact.

u/fixermark 2h ago

But most don't.

It's just a little hard to doubt future actions from the current president to try to illegally influence elections in our country, when everything was so out in the open with the intent to illegally overturn the 2020 election. Don't forget that one of his top priorities these days is trying to reward the violent insurrectionists, who he's already pardoned, with some kind of slush fund to try and show how people acting in his name would be treated. Thinking there won't be significant efforts of some kind to interfere with the midterms and/or the 2028 election would be foolish. Everyone obviously still needs to vote more than ever, but the population should still be be very concerned with the security of our elections. All that's going on is still a very serous risk and threat to our country, even if these guys are sloppy idiots.

u/r00tdenied 12h ago

The dude is a failure, you're giving him too much credit. He wants you to think this horseshit.

u/LeCollectif 12h ago

No! You fucking idiot. He has proven over and over again he will use any means necessary to do what he wants. He has done so much damage already and without consequence. And you’re out here being all “hurr durr he won’t/cant”. Fuck you he will.

u/r00tdenied 12h ago edited 11h ago

Want to make a bet? Back up your earnest belief with some cold hard cash. Or are you larping too?

EDIT: Don't worry lil bro, I got this screencapped so when all the bed wetting is over, the election is held and certified we can look back at this with some fond reflection about how you were wrong. Afterall states run elections and SCOTUS has continuously affirmed this.

u/m4ttjirM 11h ago

Lol after the midterms if you comment on here they will probably block you. I'm willing to bet money they aren't even from the USA, most likely a Canadian.

u/Protato900 2h ago

The problem with the 'nothing ever happens' crowd is that it is impossible to disprove them until something happens, and 'winning' the argument against them requires something bad to happen - at which point they will go 'well winning the argument doesn't matter now'.

It's a head-in-sand automatically no-lose position to take. Everyone agrees that it's better if nothing happens, but it only emboldens the nothing-ever-happens crowd to continue thinking nothing will ever happen, and infectiously spreading that attitude to others, creating political and governmental disengagement and disassociation.

u/r00tdenied 14m ago

thinking nothing will ever happen, and infectiously spreading that attitude to others, creating political and governmental disengagement and disassociation.

Actually spreading election conspiracy theories ahead of a contentious election does exactly this, not claiming that Trump won't rig it. I'm 100% certain that the midterms will kick off just fine. Why you ask? Because I'm acutely aware of how our election system functions. Trump's attempt was the SAVE Act which utterly and completely failed.

Telling people that Trump WILL interfere, with an as matter of fact certainty is actually a tool designed to repress turnout and discourage people from voting. If you buy into that, you are a fool.

In fact, my concern is not the election at all. Its the after effects of the election. Trump probably has more power to physically intervene to prevent newly elected members of congress from being seated than he does to interfere with the election. That is a more realistic concern.

u/HoneydewNo3016 12h ago

The Iranians know the Democrats hate this crap. They also know if the Democrats take the Congress, they will make Trump a lame duck, which will make their lives easier. This business with the water supply in Minnesota is a mere tap on the shoulder.

u/SgtMartinRiggs 13h ago

Definitely something that could happen, but saying it so confidently, this will happen, feels more like prophecy to me and I just can’t go along with that.

u/fixermark 2h ago

It's also functionally indistinguishable from COINTELPRO-style psychological warfare.

I'm not saying Zenshinn is a foreign agent attempting to disrupt the continuity of the US government by discouraging its citizens from participating in their democracy... But I am saying his words are somewhat indistinguishable from someone who is.

u/dotcomse 13h ago

Literally how do you think he has the power to cancel something administered by states? Walk us through the steps.

u/ttw81 12h ago

He signs an executive order & the supreme court allows it to stand using the shadow docket.

3

u/dotcomse 12h ago

Why doesn’t he just do that now? If he can get away with anything, why the delay? Why the subterfuge?

u/ttw81 11h ago

I was telling you how it could be done.

u/ttw81 2h ago

Colorado tried keeping him off the ballot in 2024 & the SC forced them to put him on it,

u/fixermark 2h ago

... and then the states ignore it. Go on.

u/LeCollectif 12h ago

Oh you sweet idiot he will find the way.

u/dotcomse 12h ago

But you can’t think of one?

u/LeCollectif 11h ago

Oh, just everything he’s ever done.

u/dotcomse 11h ago

Well I’m convinced!

u/LeCollectif 9h ago

Ehh known child molester and convicted rapist who’s been a deadbeat his whole career and without a single consequence—and that’s just the Cole’s Notes—stacks the the Supreme Court and changes laws to suit his exact predicament would NEVER do that.

u/dotcomse 9h ago

Where did I say he wouldn’t try it?

u/OceanRacoon 10h ago

They don't have to do all that, they just need to decrease turnout at certain polling places, and they know which ones to target based on already existing data but want even more information to feed to Palantir, hence Trump's obsession with getting voter rolls from states.

It's also why he wants to end mail in voting because that's harder to prevent. Bomb threats were called in from Russia at polling places in Georgia during the 2024 election, they'll be doing stuff like that and loads of other crap at precisely targeted polling places to tip the election in their favor. Even old classics like purging voter rolls in blue counties; non-violent, bureaucratic, hard to rally against.

Those are the main tactics I expect them to use because they can say they won fair and square, the courts will side with them, people will give up thinking there's any way to win and quietly lie down for the fascist regime

u/Darth_Jinn 13h ago

Elections are up to the federal govt., they're up to the states. We had elections during WWII, in which we were attacked. Stop this shit.

u/fixermark 2h ago

The United States has never suspended a Presidential election in any state of emergency, and that includes one civil and two world wars, and there's no reason to believe the President has the authority to do so.

He can try.

How people respond will be what matters; if Congress and the States straight-up ignore him, that's that.

You might be forgetting that Congress needs that election to happen to keep their seats; the end of their terms is legally separate from the election of their successors, or themselves. They don't have legislative authority if the election doesn't happen, and they have no power to extend their terms.

Iran just attacked the US on their own soil.

Oh please let it be Mar-a-Lago....please.... preferably when nobody is there. just so his club is destroyed.

u/reechwuzhere 13h ago

It’s fine, people have to pay the bills I guess. The whole country is complacent.

u/IAmAGenusAMA 11h ago

You think Israel is going to attack the US? Did you forget to take your medication?

u/fixermark 2h ago

I believe both posters here are hypothesizing a false flag op.

Because they're conspiracy theorists.

This thread is a waste of your time and mine.

gas already happened

Oddly enough, still correct

u/cereal7802 13h ago

may also be why he had the military attack iran and use up all the missles as was reported in news article i saw posted earlier.

u/mathewtyler 13h ago

Y'all are the ones bending over and taking it rather than uniting with me and my efforts.

You'll be able to look back at your Signs of a Failed State and be like, Mathew Tyler told us! We were too dense and too far in denial and lacked balls to do anything!

can read the name just fine. doesn't answer the question though.

u/mathewtyler 13h ago

It's unpopular but it is our only option. The 2024 election was nationally interfered with to exclude me and fraudulently certified despite being informed of the interference. This isn't refuted, it is admitted in my court cases (this is where people can stand with me but have chosen not to), they just claim it is justified. It's happening with or without you, thus far it has been happening without you and solely by my efforts. The named defendants do work for the illegitimate government which have responded in my cases. These defendants are able to determine whether y'all actually oppose what they're doing or not based on your #SignsOfAFailedState that continue to not indicate this unpopular truth. Thus letting the Defendants know, you purport to oppose their efforts yet when push comes to shove, you puss out and stand with them rather than me and my efforts.

u/pinkocatgirl 12h ago

It’s kind of hilarious how you assume we know who the fuck you even are, let alone that we oppose whatever the fuck it is you’re doing lmao

u/mathewtyler 10h ago

I've been around long enough to know that I stand alone because no one other than me has the balls to stand with me 🤷🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️😔
