April 11, 20223 yr 2 stripped of delegate titles after double voting at Salt Lake County GOP convention https://www.ksl.com/article/50384820/2-stripped-of-delegate-titles-after-double-voting-at-salt-lake-county-gop-convention Quote Two men were caught trying to vote more than once in the primary race for county clerk at the Salt Lake County GOP Convention Saturday, and the chairman of the party says it may take legal action against them. "We're going to probably send this to the attorney general, we may actually prosecute," said Chairman Chris Null. "That's a serious issue in our system." What's next for the GOP? More voting fraud.

April 12, 20223 yr The party of neofascist authoritarians: Quote ...While DeSantis' Is Getting Firmer We cannot speak to how much influence Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) has over Republicans nationwide. Truth be told, he's probably like the Headless Horseman; once he crosses the bridge out of Sleepy Hollow... er, once he crosses the Florida border, his power is probably broken. But within Florida, the Generalissimo... er, the Governor, is achieving near-dictatorial power. The latest development on this front—and recall, this is a guy who already controls the courts, and who wants to build his own private army, and who ignores federal regulations with impunity—involves the Florida district maps. We've written about this several times, so readers will probably recall that the state legislature wants to gerrymander the maps, but DeSantis wants to gerrymander them even more, with a particular eye toward cracking a couple of majority-minority districts. It's been a pretty ugly fight, with DeSantis vetoing a couple of maps passed by the legislature, and the Florida state courts getting involved, etc. Yesterday, the leaders of the state legislature called a press conference and... surrendered. They're supposed to return for a special session to hammer out a new map, but they're not even going to try. In a joint statement, state House Speaker Chris Sprowls (R) and state Senate President Wilton Simpson (R) said that they will just approve whatever map the governor sends them. It's really and truly frightening how far Florida—which, remember, is a purple state that's only about 50.5% Republican—has gone down the road toward authoritarianism. Gerrymandering is enough of an insult to democracy, as it is. But to give that power to one man, primarily because he threw several temper tantrums and refused to play nice? That is a gross abdication of the legislative branch's prerogatives. So, DeSantis will get the maps the way he wants them. And then there will be lawsuits. And between the rather clear-cut racial gerrymanders he envisions, and the fact that the maps will be adopted in such an irregular fashion, we would imagine that any judge worth their salt will toss the DeSantis maps right in the garbage. That said, we would also have imagined that the Texas abortion law wouldn't even make it past summary judgment, so what do we know? Fascists gonna fascist...

April 12, 20223 yr 4 hours ago, EaglesRocker97 said: The party of neofascist authoritarians: DeSantis understands what Trump stumbled onto by accident (well, not completely by accident, but for personal reasons fueled by insecurities instead of calculated political ones): the Republican base WANTS an authoritarian. Organizing your political fortunes around the consolidation of power isn't just smart for your longevity, it's actually a positive for your image within the Republican Party. Real conservatism and constitutional adherence are dead within the party. They're seen as a negative on the national stage. That's why DeSantis is best positioned to take over once Trump chokes on a ham sandwich. That said, he has roughly a 0% chance as long as Trump's still breathing. And my guess is he's smart enough to realize that and won't even attempt a '24 run.

He will be smart enough not to make a big stink about it though. What will be really interesting to see what he and the other would be gop presidential hopefuls do when Trump runs again in 2028.

True, but there's going to be a lead-up to them cancelling the primary. It isn't going to happen all at once, it'll likely be a state-by-state issue. They've already signaled that there's no chance for any primary debates, so that'll be the first shoe to drop, then one-by-one, the party apparatus within each state will cancel their primaries. I'm sure it'll hold on in a few irrelevant blue states and I'm sure that a few more traditional, Romney-style Republicans will actually launch a campaign, but it'll all fizzle out because too many states will shut it down and Trump will be handed the nod. I would imagine he'll already be Speaker of the House by then.
