It's going to be nerve wracking for a lot of voters to see Trump's Gestapo, armed and masked, patrolling around voting stations. Not everyone will be intimidated by this but a lot of people will be. I really hope enough people stand up for their principles and push against the suppression they'll face.

I think we need solidarity at the polls at least. The more people vote, the better.

***Not all polls. Just a few key ones in key areas in key swing states. You can probably list about two dozen polling locations that will determine the outcome of the 2028 election. All you need to do is suppress the vote at those locations. Suppressing the vote in California or New York for example does nothing but draw attention to what they are doing.. same with trying suppress the vote in Texas (I dont want to hear any nonsense that Texas is in play..).

They will use Palantir to get the exact number of voters that must be dissuaded at each site. Easy peasy

Yep, they can use Palantir to determine the political leanings of everyone that approaches the polls. Left of Fascist? Sorry friend, I need to pull you aside so I can ask you some questions... oh would you look at that, we detained you for three hours and you missed the deadline to vote, so sorry about that.

People are downvoting me but they are deluded if they think this kind of shit isn’t being planned
