A potential plan by Republican leaders to steal the 2024 presidential election. The plan involves delaying the certification of election results in key battleground states, potentially decreasing the overall number of electors appointed and allowing Donald Trump to win the presidency through a contingent election, whereby the House of Representatives, not the Electoral College, determines the president.

Unfortunately, neoliberals (diet-conservatives) that run the Dem party don't like to get their hands dirty or rock the boat. Biden cannot take extreme measures to defend democracy because that's just not how neoliberals function.

This is what happens when we don't marginalize conservatism. Historically, there has never been a peaceful solution to an infection of unchecked conservatism. The only known treatment has always been delivered by force.
