Is not the same as

ban mail ballots and voting machines as the vectors of foreign interference


Typical fear porn reporting. Most people might support this if it’s reported correctly.

The argument that "would you want democrats to do this" is not a valid question. Democrats WILL do it regardless if republicans do it or not.

Don't like the premise of the WH (whoever it may be) to have control over an election, but to not do it because the democrats will do it isn't logical.


correct, its a war, and the winner is the one making the major moves

Would you want President Gavin Newsom to have control over elections?

nope = we want to prevent corrupt illegal foreign and domestic interests from establishing him as the POTUS.

WHY are democrats so AFRAID of actual honest and fair elections??

WHY do democrats insist on illegal aliens and rigged elections to hang on to power?

WHY do democrat fear patriotic American citizens???

WHY do democrat not have a single issue they can articulate to honest, productive, natural citizens of the USA??

These are some question that any logical and informed citizen should be asking their families and neighbors and local officials.

and it all stems from

WHY do democrats fear Trump?

I wish Congress would do this.

/\ THIS /\ is the obvious solution

The PROBLEM is that 'congress' has become an entity with massive power who are controlled by the donor class rather than the US electorate.

There are enough corrupt hangers-on in congress to stifle its legitimate and logical purpose - they refuse to even consider performing their normal functions - they are content to use their time protecting their future 'electabiltiy' instead of performing their actual duties. They refuse to even pass a BUDGET - relying on the makeshift "continuing resolutions' to propagate their corrupt stranglehold into the NEXT term where they will just repeat their corruption.

We MUST insist on at least ONE election in the 21st century that is somewhat free of the electoral trickery we have suffered for decades.

Like it or not, the GOP is the ONLY resevior of where legitimate congressional functions are even considered. The democrat party is TOTALLY dominated by anti-American traitorous and corrupt chess pieces moved around by alien interests.

The time is now - give the democrats even one more term with total control of congress and everything accomplished in the past ten years will be totally upended and there will be ZERO 'legitimate' ways to fix it = what used to be known as 'debate' will be considered 'sedition' (note the actions taken under the "biden" tenure where unknown apparatchiks dealt a near-fatal blow to our inherited American culture.

We MUST ensure at least ONE election where ONLY American citizens are allowed to shape the future of the nation.

And we must ensure that situation passes down to our descendants
- Aliens are to be admitted only on an accepted "need" basis - and not allowed to vote until fully naturalized.

- Illegal aliens need to be deported immediately - and unless the voluntarily go back to their native country and legitimately apply for actual citizenship, they must never be allowed to enter again

- The distribution of representatives to Congress must be based ONLY on the number of US citizens in the state - no exceptions.

- Anyone who has been determined/convicted of past election fraud must be forever barred from ANY position of power in the US.

- POTUS must VETO any legislation that is NOT preceded by having adopted and enforced laws that restrict voting to citizens only and actions taken to PREVENT massive fraudulent handling of BALLOTs.

take away any pretext of states having any say over voting qualifications, or really anything else?

States can do their own elections any way the want - hell they can get their governors by playing tic-tac-tow if they want

but not FEDERAL offices -

IF you are going to send someone who can directly effect the way the NATION works, then you have to do it with an observably LEGITIMATE process - one that can be monitored and audited and relied upon.

NO nation should have to put up with the electoral shenagins of L.A. illegal aliens or GA corrupt electoral officials - along with many many other locations - like Minnesota where the illegally admitted Somalia fraudsters control what that state does.

This is INTOLERABLE - for honest people in Iowa have to be strangled to death in order maintain slush funds required to keep Somali aliens happy. And this is just a tentative peek into the tent erected by the democrat party (including too many traitorous GOP)

Nationwide it is a fatal epidemic which, if not corrected, will reduce America to a semblance of MAO dominated China.

I think an EO on this is a bad idea, although I also think the federal government should have a standard set on federal elections.

AND I'm not comfortable with a president having such powers.

I share that discomfort with you.
I recognize that it COULD have bad consequences.
I recognize that we MAY have bad actors in the future.

I look at as if I would taking my child to a doctor to try saving her life =
- I would be very apprehensive about the outcome.
- I would realize it could go wrong.
- I would understand that this may not be the very best doctor in the world,

But = I would know what the consequence would be if I didn't try.

Conclusions are the same in both cases.

The future can never be known, but we can try to prevent as many faults as we can while we have the time and power to do so.
