those are state laws, not federal. |

Yet it also means if Trump is convicted state laws may have him removed from the ballots of those states. That whole battle is just starting to begin in some states. There are already lawsuits being created that declare him an insurrectionist which should take him off some state ballots. |

FWIW, I suspect Democratic turnout will be high in 2024 because of Dodds and the suddenly blunt GOP culture war shit (like fucking 90s-levels of gay and trans bashing, book bans) and the continued existence at least two Supreme Court justices (Alito, who clearly thinks the Constitution is secondary to his religious ideology, and Thomas, who operates out of what I can only figure is a great deal of fucking spite) |
|
|
|
Democrats have been *saying* the GOP is trying to do this shit for decades, but to the average voter that's just noise until they *do*. |
|
|
|
A lot of fucking Democrats never gave a fucking thought to *Roe* because it was just ""scaremongering"" to say it might be overturned. |
