So republicans running as democrats to snag people who toe the party line. Damn, wish we could get some people to pretend to be fucking insane and then flip left

Well we do have quite a few Democrats now claiming the 2024 election was hacked. Give it 8 years and the crazy Republicans today might look pretty tame after Democrats continue moving to the right.

Which democrats are claiming it was hacked? Just random people? I haven’t heard anything.

There was one who told a plausible story. Spoonamore? But as soon as you try to verify the number claim, it turns out to be bogus.
