1. Thanks for sharing

I was a little bit concerned about this, but the reasoning behind how this is just another distraction for the press to chase sure makes sense.

2. Highly recommended to tamp down the hysteria. We are being manipulated.

6. Exactly, it's not real. It's all a con. Why does anyone still believe him?

He's a con man. He lies. He bullshits. That's his secret. He says he is going to do shit and hopes people believe him. It's all horseshit. He's got nothing but his lies and they only work if people think he is telling the truth. Stop listening to his demented ramblings. None of what he is saying is true.

7. I was really upset this morning and I have

come to the conclusion that the only way to keep this from happening is to have enormous turnout.

Plus, these state legislators don't plan to be there forever, their eyes are on moving up and overtly sleazy moves like that are not going to age well and will keep them from doing anything that might negatively impact their bank accounts in the future.

So, it will probably not happen, maybe a state or two with really, really extreme legislatures and there will be HUGE protests there.

People are sick of this shit. If we vote, we win. It is as simple as that.

9. This is what I have said we have to have all along

We need Obama 2008 level turnout or better. And I think it is obvious that we need to vote in person if possible. I will when our state's early voting period starts in a couple of weeks. I'll mask up and I have the ability to pick a convenient time in the two weeks or so that we have it.

10. Great thread- this is how Rachel should have framed this story

Unfortunately, both Rachel, and the original Atlantic story ignored the role and power of the Rust Belt Dem Governors and Secs of State in fighting such a coup attempt By GOP legislators.
