I'm a hedgehog.

Between this and Trump’s refusal to commit to election results, he is deliberately undermining his base’s trust in the electoral process. By citing “voter fraud” as his reason to try to delay the election, now even though the election WILL happen on time, if (when) he loses, he can claim that the election was illegitimate- that it was voter fraud, that he warned us, that he knew it was rigged, that Congress didn’t do enough to stop all the ~fraud~ that he knew was there, and he will refuse to step aside peacefully. 

He has been placing armed mercenaries in major American cities run by democratic mayors, and he is laying the groundwork to claim that the election is illegitimate if (when) he loses. 

You need to vote, so that both the Electoral College and the Popular vote are against him, and when this asshole finally breaks the tradition of the peaceful transition of power (which is what he is planning), when you need to be willing to protest and fight more than you ever have before. 

This si why you vote blue even if you’re in a scarlet state with no hope of winning the electoral college. 

This is why you vote for Biden even if you loathe him with every fiber of your being. 

This is it. 

If we are to have any hope of maintaining a fair system and avoiding an all-out dictatorship, the numbers have to be absolutely unambiguous.

The Supreme Court is so important. Right now it’s currently 5 conservatives, 4 liberals. All major laws and regulations eventually get litigated up to SCOTUS. Just last month, DACA and Roe v Wade were upheld, and the largest expansion of indigenous land in decades provides, by bare 5-4 votes because a conservative switched sides in each case. The Affordable Care Act was upheld 5-4. Same sex marriage was granted 5-4.

If Trump gets to appoint RBG’s replacement, the Court would swing 6-3. Those victories wouldn’t have happened.

Supreme Court justices serve for life
