The only way cops will respect people's rights is if they're afraid of what might happen if they violate them. That goes for all people. Power corrupts. Without checks to keep them in line, every cop is corrupt.

That's my hope but if they rig the election or refuse to vacate their seats after losing, it'll require the police/military (where many officials have already been replaced by magat loyalists) to step in.

Just telling you what I know I'm not the one who said he openly admitted it

Who's going to charge and arrest him? The best we can hope for is massive nationwide protests or him failing to rig the election in 2028 and the next administration charging him if he doesn't flee the Russia first

He vaguely implied Elon was rigging them, saying he had a "little secret" that was going to win them the election

Multiple treasons, and all the people who would punish him for his market manipulation just benefitted from it so they're only going to thank him

You're virtue signaling about blocking someone, you obviously wanted someone to take you seriously in response to it
