Many swing states like AZ and GA had GOP governors and also GOP state legislatures and states like WI and PA had GOP majority in the state legislatures.
No fucking way they could push mail in ballot changes if they didn't have the federal COVID guidelines as cover to do so.
Trump could have prevented most of these mail in ballot changes if he just resisted the urge to listen to Fauci and Birx.
He was afraid of the media roasting him.
This poor decision cost him and the country dearly.
They were never-Trumpers though, they wanted Trump gone.
What specifically could the Federal government have done to prevent those states from doing mail-in elections?
You will call anyone a never Trumper to absolve Trump of any responsibility.
The AZ, GA, WI, PA legislatures are not fully comprised of never-Trumpers.
This is the biggest copout I have seen in a while.
Trump could have fired Fauci and Birx and got a competent public health scientist like Jay Bhattacharya instead to issue alternate guidance.
GOP states only locked down because the GOP President recommended it.
It stings your dick to accept reality that Trump is responsible for screwing himself and the country over.
Did you not notice how many election rules they completely disregarded in 2020?
They weren't going to let a lack of federal guidelines stop them.
Pure conjecture
Not even conjecture, it just isn't true. At the very least in the case of my state of Ohio, DeCuck was so eager to lockdown he beat most democrats to the punch.
You're back in your imaginary hypothetical world again. "What if the person I'm arguing with would call anyone a never-Trumper? Then I win the debate! Yay!"
You talk about reality, go live in it. DeSantis isn't a never-Trumper and there's plenty more that aren't. These people we're talking about have Tweets from his first election that literally say "never Trump" or to that effect.
