I wish Zelensky was OUR president. Can't wait for midterms when Dems take back the House and Senate and immediately impeach and convict trump.

You are *way* too optimistic given the state of things

Bold of you to assume that there will be fair elections in two years.

According to Trump there won’t be anymore blue states. Can’t see how they’ll pull that off fairly.

I don't know if Trump and Musk are really so narcissistic that they think they can steal an election via Starlink, as cybersecurity experts and election workers deny that happened. But if they can, that's not the biggest worry of mine. My biggest worry is Democrats being bound to let it happen in the future. To possibly illegally secure voting machines from hacking should be easy on Democrats' part given what Trump has been getting away with so far. But they're too afraid of being called election deniers.
