I think overall there is no pathway to seating kamala it would just be a waste of time. At the same time, though, what a way to send a message. I think if the democrats understood how far lost they were it would be the most beautiful death throw.

Ehhh, I think it sends a message to any Independent or wavering trump voter that “hey, 'member all the threat to democracy stuff we talked about? Yeah, just kidding!”
Sucks to be the adult party but such is life.

You’re not being the adult. The adult gets their hands dirty when it’s t8me to get their hands dirty. Who watches the watchers? The answer isn’t crime fighting vigilantes. It’s other watchers.

I’m not understanding what you’re trying to say.
Are you saying the Democrats, after called trump’s use of fake electors a threat to democracy, should try that failed tactic?
And are you saying this for 2024? After the Dems lost the popular vote, every swing state, the Senate and Congress, Dems should try to install Kamala as the 2024 winner?
Or that they should do that in 2028, regardless of the outcome or only if Republicana don’t cede power or?

I’m saying they should do the 3xact same thing trump did and will face no consequences for and see how the Republicans respond in turn.

Yeah, it signals to every both sider that they were right all along, and all the people they’ve been prosthelytizing to might actually start believing them.
If you want to be on the side of democracy, you don’t just decide to stop being democratic unless you’ve given up.
You’re not going to solve anything by playing by their rules, you’re only going to galvanize them. They are the party of “government doesn’t work”, doing this just gives them more ammo.

The government doesn’t work.id one side can break the law and walk away scott free and if the other side does the same exact thing they have consequences. What’s there left to argue at that point?
