There is no basis for their distrust. They are choosing to distrust because they are being told to distrust.

I gave you the ****ing solution. Republicans need to stop telling them lies. That is what needs to be done. Because if we address the fantasy of unsecure elections with some sort of placation the goal posts will be moved endlessly.

There should be no room to move the goalposts.

  • All votes must be cast at official voting location where designated observers for the parties are allowed.
  • Vote must be recorded on physical media such as a paper ballot.
  • The polls must close at a specified time and the votes transported directly from the voting location to the vote counting center with designated observers for the parties allowed to accompany the transport.
  • Designated observers must be allowed in the vote counting centers to oversee the vote count.

There should be total transparency from end to end. Trust in the system will come from the ability to oversee every part of the system. That is not what we have now. Since COVID we have mass mail-in voting with many states allowing the practice of ballot harvesting. Not a single state as far as I'm aware has ever done a validation on their ability to reliably conduct signature-only ballot verification. So long as such a large component of the system is unobserved, the ground will always be ripe for doubters.

And if all this is done just the way you want it to be done and think it should be done and then trump loses and tells maga the election was stolen from him and they believe him and still distrust the process then...........
For them to trust the process one of two things needs to happen.
1. Their candidate of choice wins.
2. Their candidate of choices accepts and acknowledges his defeat.
If one those two things dont happen the distrust will continue.

And I think we all know that 2 will never happen.

It’s so silly that we’re talking about overhauling the system all because Lil Donnie’s feelings get hurt when he loses and his cult following is to stupid and bitter to accept that their candidate isn’t liked by the majority of this country. There wasn’t any widespread fraud that caused trump to lose. So why indulge in solutions in search of problems?

I have a better idea, the minority should grow up and stop indulging in child like conspiracies and victimization. Maybe it’s time to get back in touch with mainstream culture? Maybe it’s time for MAGA to reach out and learn what the majority of this country is like? Maybe it’s time to base political views and outcomes on evidence and facts, not bluster and feelings? Time to grow up folks!

Facts > Your Feelings

This solution is not to secure the vote, it is to suppress the vote, which is beneficial to MAGA.

Those are dumb ideas from start to finish. I've been mailing in my ballots for years and you can pry my mail in ballot from my cold dead hands. I love it.

The last election was completely secure and has full integrity. We don't need to go back to 1989 so that MAGA boomers feel comfy about their vote. Those things don't make the vote any more secure at all. I mean other than observers which is and has been allowed.

And again. If trump loses and says it's stolen then to the cult it's stolen.
Let's say mail in ballots are banned. Completely eliminated. Not a single mail in ballot is cast in next year's election.

Then trump loses and tells his cult that in the states/cities where he lost they were cheating and allowing mail in ballots.

Even if not a single mail in ballot was cast his cult would believe Trumps word over everyone else's. No evidence needed. Trumps word is more truthful than judges and evidence to them. That is why he has spent the past 8 years telling everyone not to trust anyone. Except him.
Don't trust judges. Don't trust the media. Don't trust law enforcement. Don't trust audio and video. Don't trust people who were close him.
Trust only trump.
And if trump says something that could get him in trouble then you can't trust the "context" of what he said. His words were twisted. He was kidding. It was locker room talk. Etc etc etc.

I do have another solution to this problem. It's a two parter.

1) Wait for Trump to die.

2) Wait for boomers to die.

Problem solved.

We should remember that Fox News paid through the nose (nearly $1 billion dollars) for the election fraud lies they told for months. They knew it too, but feeding drooling cultists like Al lies rather than tell them the truth and risk losing them to even more dishonest and far right media, was more profitable to them.

3. Outvote the **** out of the cult.

Which is what we should do on 2024. Biden isn’t perfect. But he’s far better than Trump. A Dem led House isn’t perfect, but I’ll take them over the Gaetz Bobo circus. I’m not a fan of Schumer in the Senate, but I’ll take a Dem led Senate over a McConnell one. Not a fan of this activist Supreme Court, so that’s gotta change too. And that can only be done by outlasting them (or enacting much needed reform).

The GOP has attacked our democracy. It’s time to rip power away from them until they come back to playing the democracy game again, by featuring sane candidates, good ideas, and belief in the democratic system again.
 
What about those of us who like voting by mail? I get to avoid lines, watching old people try and solve tech problems, and get to research candidates before voting. It’s nice and convenient. And I can track when my vote is counted. utah has used it for years and there hasn’t been any problem with it. I’m part of the majority. Don’t MY feelings matter? Or do we only care about the loud minority that worships Trump and thinks Qanon is real?

Calling for the death of those you see as the opposition is one way to go about things. North Korea agrees with your plan.

I didn't call for anyone's death. I said "wait" for them to die. So for Trump any day now, maybe 5 years if we're unlucky, 10 years if we're really unlucky. Boomers might take 10-20 years until they have no influence on our politics. It's crazy that the flower power hippie generation is the one that wants to push us into an authoritarian nightmare, but here we are. I've got no love for MAGA boomers who are actively trying to make life worse for the generations that followed them.

I won't whine, I will justifiably criticize how dumb they are. I don't have to appease people for being dumb. I don't owe anyone anything just because they want to be little brats. Your suggestion is like telling the parent that "Well unless you want your kid to keep crying and throwing a tantrum then you better let them eat that candy and stay up until midnight." We all know that doesn't work, the opposite in fact, so I'm not sure why I'm supposed to worry about this MAGA boomer tantrum. I ain't giving them any candy.

Lol. He didn't call for their death
He said wait for them to die (naturally silly)
This might come as a shock to you but everyone dies.

Again, if we eliminate mail in voting and require 10 forms of ID to vote and they still don't feel comfy about their vote then what?
Just let whoever doesn't feel comfy and who shows distrust choose everything for those that do trust and that do feel comfy?
Complete nonsense

Yeah I open my ballot in front of my PC and I look up info on all the candidates I'm not already familiar with and cast votes if I feel like I have info to do so. I leave some votes blank when I feel like I don't know enough about the candidates or the issue to make a vote.

None of those tweets are loading for me but I just wanted to say that I got a kick out if saying "loading tweet" instead of some kind of "x" nonsense.

I'm going to have to wait for Trump to confirm this.
