Trump rolled out the red carpet for a dictator on U.S. soil last week. Then, echoing Putin, he threatened mail-in ballots. Now he's musing about starting wars to postpone future elections.

Starting a war won't postpone elections. This is not a power the presidency has. The office has no authority to postpone or cancel elections, even during wartime. Please stop spreading false information to get people upset. We're upset already. No need to lean into the garbage he makes up.

He also cannot unilaterally end mail-in voting with an EO. Voting is governed by state law. And that's not how EOs work. He can write all he wants, try all he wants, but it will not stop elections.

He CAN influence state admins to ignore the ballots. Maybe focus on that? If an official account is going to lean into the fact that people don't know their civics, what hope have we got?

It's because during his meeting with Zelenskyy he seemed to pick up on the fact that Ukraine doesn't have elections due to the war with Russia.

Grammar wise, no it's not passive voice. However, the tone is rather passive in that it's "Hey look what this guy is doing!" and then kind of crickets except for the occasional stand by someone who often gets shot down by leadership for doing it and fundraising texts or emails.

There's no evidence for your assertion in that article The DNC chair was interviewed and explicitly said the Democratic Party should include Mamdani In any case, a DNC chair being interviewed does not constitute DNC endorsement or non-endorsement

Good point but these are facilitated by state Dem parties with DNC support, not directly by the DNC. This is also a new initiative by Martin It is unlikely that Mamdani will require this sort of financial support. He's likely cruising to an easy victory

Then why are Democratic leaders not endorsing him? Instead, they spend their time going on tv to make up lies about him when they should be fighting Trump. If (hopefully WHEN) he wins the general election for NYC mayor, it’ll be despite the Dems, not with them.
