Trump Issues Blatantly Unconstitutional Banana Pants Executive Order Attacking Elections
Elections,Election Integrity,Voter Suppression,Executive Orders
It was only a matter of time before The Musk/Trump regime attacked the very election system that allowed them into power. The goal here is to disenfranchise as many people as possible, the Constitution be damned.
Before I get into the executive order itself, I understand this is blatantly unconstitutional. It violates federalism (states run elections) and separation of powers (Congress can still pass laws about elections and voting). Those pesky considerations matter very little to the architects of Project 2025 and possibly even enough members of the Extreme Court.
Even if this order is blocked in the courts, it will serve as an inspiration for a new round of voter suppression legislation in the states. They *DO* have the power to alter their election laws (unless the courts chime in) and the red states have been slowly ratcheting up the restrictions on voting.
This is the SAVE Act on steroids. Let’s examine what this order could do if found legal (and it probably won’t be) below the fold.
