      Oh no, a post title.

      If they were canceling elections why haven’t they started yet?

      Republicans now have a one vote margin in the House thanks to Democrats winning regular and special elections over the last year.

      Democrats have flipped 20% of Republican seats, Republicans have flipped none.

      We’ve been seeing an unprecedented slide to the left in elections over and over in 2025, including one in Texas over the weekend that went D+14 and just two years ago was a solid Trump district at R+17. That’s a 31 point shift to the left. In Texas.

      There have been dozens of shifts of that magnitude.

      Not to mention the several Democratic governors and AGs that have been elected - and those are the ones who challenge the administration in court (and have been winning most of those challenges by the way).

      Elections have consequences, and they know that too. If they were going to mess with them they would and should have done so already.

        You don’t believe he will fuck with the elections, even after saying it, and all the other shit he’s done?

          Of course they will. It’s called voter suppression, and it’s been happening in this country since we’ve been a country. Welcome to America.

          Grow up and take charge of your future. No one’s coming to save you but yourself.
