Yeah. These people largely couldn't be bothered to get vaccinated for their fellow Americans, something tells me they're not gonna go get themselves shot by the US military for their fellow Americans either to any significant degree.

That logic only works if you assume they didn't get vaccinated because of laziness which isn't the source of their refusal.

People don't understand how this would work. First they bully and threaten poll workers so they can put themselves in those position to "adjust" things. They get elected to school boards then advance their agendas. They move up the political ladder. Soon they are a powerful enough to infiltrate courts and instill fear into legislators who do not fully cooperate.
Once they have control, they use law enforcement to enforce whatever they decide. Democracy is then dead. Welcome to a shithole country of brutal dictators. VOTE or else ^
