There is a line between "wishing for death" and "inciting violence". You're on the wrong side of that line.
The EC votes are cast on the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December. (December 17th). They are counted on January 6th.

Yeah, I was a little off on the timeline... If he strokes out after the EC casts their votes, but before they are counted in the House, then Vance will be properly elected to the vice presidency, but the House is required to immediately vote on the Presidency. They only get to select from the top three EC vote winners. With Harris being the only candidate to win any EC votes for president, the House is constitutionally required to elect her. Harris/Vance.
If I were a Republican, I'd table-flip that outcome, but theoretically...
There's an interesting possibility.
If Trump strokes out before the EC votes are cast, Vance becomes president.
But, if Trump strokes out after the EC votes are cast, but before they are actually counted in the House, Vance will be properly elected to the vice presidency. No presidential candidate will have 270 votes, so the decision will be made by the House, and the House can only choose from the top 3 candidates based on EC vote count. Harris being the only other candidate to win any EC votes, the House can only choose her. We end up with a Harris/Vance administration.
Hopefully, he strokes out before the EC casts their votes in December. If that happens, we can end up with a Harris/Vance administration.
Right? What a bunch of horseshit!
My county uses pens to fill in our bubbles...
It’s such an outlier compared to even other conservative states with similar ballot measures.
It's not an outlier. The difference is:
the measure required a 60% supermajority to pass
- Florida got 57.4% in favor.
- Kansas's amendment passed with 59.16%
- Ohio's amendment passed with 56.6%. (And a couple months earlier, we rejected an "emergency" amendment in a special election to require a 60% majority for all future amendments)
I mean, he could, but wouldn't he need Congress to confirm his appointments?
Just a simple majority in the Senate. And since he has absolute immunity, he can just order the executions of a sufficient number of Republican senators to ensure his appointments make it through confirmation.
This extensive, it's almost certainly just paint flaking off. Carbon fiber wings need UV protection which is normally provided by the paint. The tape is just shading the carbon fiber wing panels from the sun.
There is an issue with the paint. It is not adhering properly.
The paint normally provides UV protection to the carbon fiber reinforced polymer wings. With the paint flaking off, the tape is here to provide UV protection to the CFRP.
Agreed. About the only way they could increase their objectivity would be by using the candidate's own, recent words on the various topics.
Somehow, I think there would be far more outrage if they had done that...
Hear, hear!
