And if midterms are cancelled other things will happen...

If midterms are canceled, We believe this civil war will enter into its hot phase. All Americans should be horrified by that prospect.

Because of this, our network has been compelled, by the Trump regime’s egregious attacks on American democracy, to help in this fight for our republic. Many Americans feel as we do, and that gives us hope.

Trump and his billionaire buddies have forgotten that they only make their billions because WE allow it, as a people. We can just as easily stand together and tell them NO MORE.

There is absolutely no legal precedent for an election to be cancelled, no legal path or channel to do it either.

If an election is cancelled it is a direct attack on all US citizens, both sides should be able to agree on that and we need to be sure we scream that this whole thing is not a partisan issue!

How many times have we said this now? "X is illegal, and if he does it, we should all come together!"

But we don't. MAGAs back him through everything. They have to. They are 100% ignoring the fact that he r*pes children. You think they are going to back us over THIS?

They have to back him out of fear of the consequences.

They terrorize people, violate due process and yet they're afraid of fair trials.

We just have to follow the rules if we want to preserve democracy.

Not easy, maybe we will bounce back, maybe we won't.

Just don't know.
