Trump Has Never Believed in Democracy

[signalmankenneth]

He wants to wield power without winning it legitimately.

Donald Trump’s continued effort to overturn the result of the election — an effort buttressed by the support of many Republicans in Congress, it should be noted — is nothing short of an attempt at a bloodless coup.

The only way Trump could achieve his aim of denying Joe Biden his rightfully earned victory would be if some people or entities — state legislatures, judges or the Supreme Court — were to agree to throw out millions of legally cast and appropriate votes.

(It is also worth noting that many of the jurisdictions being disputed are heavily Black.)

But a stinging defeat in the Supreme Court, packed with three justices of Trump’s own choosing, seems to have slammed the door on any legal path Trump might have had in his outrageous endeavor. The members of the Electoral College will meet on Monday and choose the next president.

Barring any extraordinary and unprecedented developments, they will select Joe Biden, as the people already have.
