Almost like they know nothing will happen to them and the elections will just happen even if no ballots get sent out. Nothing like this admin has happened before and our democracy is being tested

This midterm election is going to be a pass/fail exam of our republic. If Trump and his Republicans get their way then it will be a fail and our republic will no longer exist. This is it citizens! What kind of country do you want going forward: a democratic republic or a dictatorship/oligarchy? Pick one.

100%. It's a final stop post Jan 6. If elections are disrupted people need to hold the GOP accountable or it's 1930 Germany and time to get out.
