#1 You know that the corporatist Democrats, which includes Biden and Harris, absolutely despise the communist wing of the party. Right? Right.

What is this spittle-flecked nonsense doing here?

#2 Ah... but Big Tech *loves* Socialism. They are foolish enough to believe that they will end up on top. That Socialism will not dare touch them. Much like Obamacare, they and theirs will get an exemption.

#3 /\ D.C. and Northern VA., the government city model:

Pyongyang is the capital and largest city of North Korea. Pyongyang is located on the Taedong ... and transport center of North Korea. It is home to North Korea's major government institutions, as well as the ruling Workers' Party of Korea.

#4 It's rent-seeking they want.

The state protects the board from competition, and the board sends a percentage to those pulling the bureaucracies strings.

"lockdown" is a great excuse for more printing and thus insider bailouts.

#5 Capitalist love Socialists if they give them capital and protection...
Biden and Harris need Communist attack dogs for their protection racket to force reluctant Capitalists of deals they can't refuse.

#6 Big tech might be the last they go after, But by then there will zero infrastructure for them to make money with. The Marxist government will go after Health insurance, then the oil industry. From there it will be banking and 401k because the exodus Of all businesses to off shore will crash our dollar. Learn to count Yen...

#7 At the federal level, perhaps, though I don’t think they‘ll have much time before the 2022 Republican wave. But at the state and local levels the majority of governors and state legislatures are Republican, as Dan Bongino pointed out here.

Moreover, in 2021, Republicans will hold 27 governorships compared to the Democrats, with 23.

A “trifecta” refers to single-party control of a state’s governorship and both chambers of its legislature. As a result of the 2020 elections, Republicans won trifectas in New Hampshire and Montana. According to Ballotpedia, “If control of Alaska does not change, Republicans will have 23 trifectas (a net gain of two), Democrats will have 15 trifectas, and 12 states will have divided governments (a net loss of two). (If Republicans gain a trifecta in Alaska, they will have 24 trifectas to Democrats’ 15 with 11 divided governments.)”

Of the battleground states, the GOP will hold trifectas in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, New Hampshire, Ohio and Texas. Democrats will have a trifecta in Nevada only. The rest of the battlegrounds, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin will have divided government.

Why does it matter if Republicans control the legislatures in the majority of states, particularly in the battlegrounds?

Because in 2021, state legislatures will be redrawing U.S. House district maps according to changes identified by the 2020 census.

#8 A Republican wave requires honest vote COUNTING! Think that is likely for the 2022 elections once they are in power. I don’t.

#9 At a minimum, if we don't get rid of absentee ballots for all but overseas citizens, we will never have an honest, free and fair election again.

Upholding this shitshow's results sends the wrong signal.

No politician or candidate will resist the temptation to cheat because this election has proven that lying, cheating and intimidation work.

#10 I think that Trump is planning the demise of the republican party with Ms Powell in the vanguard. I have no respect or regard of people like Murkowski, Christie, Romney, or Ryan but I do regard and respect people like Trump, Jordan, and Powell.

#11 It's not about communist v capitalist but about pure naked power and the best way to maintain that once it is gained. Also about the best way to lick the boots of those likely to gain that power so they leave you alone.

Also to lick the boots hoping the communist minions you hired direct out of college don't take your company out from within.
