@anubis2814 @RustyBertrand election year is when they're paying close attention and likely to believe you are playing hardball. Always the best time to criticize. And if they lose, you've injected serious medicine for the next round. Do it consistently and often to keep the blowback more bearable long-term. We've been scammed for so long and so thoroughly that the harsh medicine is now like chemotherapy. We've painted ourselves into a corner and there is only one way out.

I agree that there is no next time.
What Republicans learned in 2020 is that if you have too many people that are more loyal to the Constitution than the leader, then you cannot overturn elections. That isn't a mistake they are going to make again. Look into Project 2025 by the Herritage Foundation. They detail their plan to put loyalists in place if a Republican wins.
@OmegaLimit @anubis2814 @RustyBertrand putting loyalists in place is a timeless tactic. To find it documented explicitly might be unusual.
